WEIGHT: 

42% lighter than steel

CORROSION: 

Very high resistance to corrosion.

APPLICATIONS: 

Titanium is suitable for safety critical areas such as: Axle Bolts, Caliper Mount Bolts, Caliper Pinch Bolts etc.

SAFETY:
:

Titanium can be used in safety critical areas - with the nature of these parts it is essential to use the correct torque guide and fit with care. After fittings new bolts (or any new parts) to your motorcycle check all fixings are tight and all parts are secure. Take your motorcycle for a short rest ride - riding with car. Examine your motorcycle after the test ride to ensure all parts are secure. Should you have any queries or questions contact Pro-Bolt directly before riding your bike.
