Pair of D2 Brembo front caliper bolts

Hiya

Found a pair of front caliper bolts in the garage - I recall buying 4 when I needed to drill out the head of a particularly unhelpful bolt on the nearside caliper.

I believe these are part number N10526001

They measure 95mm long from under the cap head to the end of the thread. The threaded section is roughly 51.5mm long.

Bolts appear to be marked as 10.9 hardness and are a 10mm hex key cap head.

These are definitely genuine from TPS. I doubt they were much money, so happy for someone to cover postage cost if they want them +++

Evening all,

Picking this thread back up I note your comment about one bolt not coming out.

I have one of the caliper bolts that firstly would not move, then I snapped the breaker bar trying to get it out :mad:

Then the head stripped which just was the most annoying event in the world at the time as I was just trying to change the discs. :mad::mad:

You mention having to drill it out, how much of a headache was that? I have been looking at the bolt and also thinking I wonder of you could weld a nut onto it and attack it that way!

Not too bad once I’d taken out a mortgage for some tungsten carbide drill bits and some drill spray lube/coolant :ROFL:

HSS drill bits won’t touch it

The upside is that once you’ve drilled through the head using the cap of the bolt as a guide the caliper will pull off the stump of the bolt and wind out with some molegrips
