[Tigers] Caliper bolts to stainless Grade 8

[Ron Fraser]

                I went to a Caterpillar dealer and bought their grade 8 + bolts.

 

The very old Totally Stainless catalog I have lists grade 8 stainless bolts but the illustration shows ARP stamped on them.

This catalog also did not show all sizes and lengths of bolts so maybe that has changed.

 

1st you need to know the strength of the stainless bolts you are buying.

 

Try Totally stainless and ARP.

Totally Stainless has a package of all nuts and bolts for a Tiger.  They could probably supply you with what you need.  Just be sure and use antiseieze.   Cliff

Common stainless bolts are approximately equivalent to cheese. Maybe try these guys? http://lightningboltandsupply.com/stainless-steel.html 

 

What I would do is to use quality regular grade 8 fasteners, and find a high temperature clearcoat or silver for the whole assembly.

Cheers,

Theo

Hello there,

 

Anybody know of a good source of replacement bolts made of grade 8 stainless

that will hold the two halves of a rebuilt brake caliper together?

Trying to eliminate any rust.
