Technical & Materials

Engineered for Performance

Every Racebolt fastener is manufactured on site in Bristol from aircraft-grade titanium, 6082-T6 aluminium or high Cr/Ni stainless steel — with rolled threads for maximum strength and finishes built to last.

We manufacture all of our Titanium products on site in Bristol. We use aircraft specification Grade 5 Titanium (6AL-4V) for this entire range.

Grade 5 Titanium is the most widely used Titanium Alloy and has excellent strength to weight properties.

We roll the threads on these components, a process which accurately crushes the thread form into the surface of the bolt, directing the material grain structure around the thread form, increasing the toughness of the thread.

This helps our Titanium Bolts achieve a strength range between Class 8.8 and Class 10.9 alloy steel equivalent bolts, with a Tensile Strength of 950 MPa (138,000 psi).

Titanium is generally 40% lighter than Steel. Our Race Spec range is designed for minimum weight with maximum strength and is approximately 45% lighter than steel equivalent parts.

We recommend applying either a medium strength thread locker (Loctite 242) or an anti-seize lubricant (Copaslip) to prevent galling especially when fitting Titanium bolts with Titanium Nuts. We recommend OEM Torque settings.

Our Stainless Steel parts are manufactured on site from high Cr/Ni Austenitic Stainless Steel especially formulated for us giving superior strength, corrosion resistance and durability.

Tensile Strength 700 MPa (100,000 psi). An exceptional quality product tried and tested in the market place for the last 10 years. Available in a wide range of styles, Racebolt is the first company to manufacture these styles of fastener in Stainless steel. Fully machined with rolled threads for increased strength. Recommended for general purpose use.

All of our Stainless Products are highly polished on site.

Each and every fastener is manufactured with rolled threads rather than machined cut threads.

05 Fitment & Care

Fitment Best Practice

Lubricate

Anti-Seize on Titanium

When fitting Titanium bolts into Titanium nuts, always apply a copper-based anti-seize lubricant (Copaslip) to prevent galling between mating threads.

Secure

Use Thread Locker

For vibration-prone applications, apply a medium strength thread locker such as Loctite 242 to keep fasteners secure under load.

Torque

Follow OEM Specs

Always use the manufacturer’s recommended torque settings. Download our fitment torque guide above for a full reference.
