yamaha girdle hardware

[Mouthfulloflake]

is it possible to get long studs instead of the case bolts and head girdle bolts?

ive got a girdle head, and NO hardware.

im trying to figure out how to get this stuff without breaking the bank.

long studs would also make assembly a WHOLE lot easier I think.

any ideas?

advice?

Thanks in advance!

I've seen it done before. I think that's what magoo does if I understand you correctly.

The ADA heads use long studs and so do the AJS heads which are ADA's but say Atlantic jetsports and are cheaper.

YA701G6 is the stud kit call them an make sure it has the acorn nuts and washers because it says 6pc

Here's the ada link

Now, if someone just knows that thread Diameter and Pitch, Ill price the studs locally or from Mcmaster Carr, or Grainger.

I can remove one later and find the thread/pitch, but I figured someone might know.

also, hardened stainless?

or what I wonder.

M10 1.25?

 

[Mouthfulloflake]

some basic searching reveals equal length metric stainless studs in lengths of 200mm

at slightly less than $3 each.

 

[Mouthfulloflake]

M10 1.25?

thats what I had guessed, any idea of the length needed?
( im at work, not at home, so I cant measure squat...)

 

[Mark44]

stainless yes hardened no because they are stainless.

Mark44

 

[Mouthfulloflake]

what allow?

18-8, 316?

a286?

I mean, stainless... I wouldnt want 304 stainless hardware!

haha

 

[Mouthfulloflake]

mcmaster carr doesnt show them in stainless ( long enough)

local supply shop only has 300 series threaded rod.

Might be cheaper to order the $69 kit from atjetsports, or the $75 from ADA.

need to check Grainger and a few others.

also, Im guessing the length is 11 inches or so?

280-300mm

am I way long there?

i think I heard paul has kits for like 30 bucks...

 

[Matt_E]

For headbolts I think.

 

[Mouthfulloflake]

I will call Paul and ask him, if I buy id rather buy from him.

I can get some threaded rod locally ( stainless), but I guess that would be pretty hooptyfied wouldnt it?

 

[godocgo]

interested in a set or 2 as well. let me know what you find or paul jump in an tell us what you got

 

[waxhead]

i am in for a few sets as well
i have 2 girdel heads with no kits
it is m10 x 1.25

 

[Mouthfulloflake]

wax,

1.5 or 1.25?

Ill see what I can find, maybe we can get a QTY price break on the studs.

assuming I can FIND them somewhere.

I could probably have them made locally, I ised to make threaded stainless rods at a shop I worked at, but larger, and SAE not metric.

If that is the case I'll take one as well (maybe 2).

im having a hard time finding them in stainless.

black oxide is under $4 each stud though.

Get only S.S. studs from ADA. As I went through a ton of them until they got them right, not stretching and not breaking at the edge where the threads stop. They have a lot more expense in materials now. I can torque them even up to 45 ft-lbs and no worrys with any compression ratio I want.

thats something I wondered about, ltos of different grades of stainless, and most dont make fasteners worth a damn.

any idea what the alloy of the ADA studs is?
