steamboatrailer Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 I came on to a site RACING BOLTS.COM.They make the M6X16MM bolts in Titanium.I know not much weight savings.I do know that aluminum and titanium don't get along That's when the TI PREP from Finish Line comes in.Is there a difference in tensile strength on titanium vs stainless? Uber exspensive about 60 clams for the M6 bolts.Just lookin' at the cool factor of titanium.Bottom line, Fin would you use titanium bolts if it was more affordabale?

bigdyno Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 You used to be able to get the shoulder bolts and bails in Ti, I have them and they don't make an F-ing bit of difference as far as I can tell. But I know they are Ti and that's cool as, well, Ti. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John E Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 I believe that titanium is about 1/2 the density of steel. You can lighten your bindings & your wallet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sultan Guy Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Have you ever seen a broken stainless steel bolt? Save your money for something that actually makes a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terekhov Posted December 21, 2009 Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 if you want thread-stuck problems - just use Ti. if you want to be ti-freak - as I am in my bike-alterego - just learn to TI PREP carefully and regularly. and - never use Ti-Ti threading if you clearly know what you are doing so: don't do it, it's for troublemakers only) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
