TiKORE Titanium Lug Bolts for Mercedes (Made in the USA)

Brand New TiKORE Titanium Lug Bolts for Mercedes (set of 20). These bolts are made in the USA (not china like our competitors) and made from 100% aerospace certified material. The listed price is way below our competitors. All of our threads are rolled not cut.



New low price of $450 + $15 for shipping!


Please verify measurements and seat type of your bolt before purchase.

Measurements: M14 x 1.5, conical seat, 27MM thread length.

Measurements: M12 x 1.5, conical seat, 27MM thread length.


We will accommodate custom lengths due to spacers, please inquiry to provide details of your needs.


FYI - We are a new sponsor on MBWorld!! We are very excited.


Grade 5 6AL-4V Titanium (Tikore's preferred material):
Yield Strength: 128,000psi
Ultimate Tensile Strength: 138,000psi
Shear Strength: 79,800psi
Density: .160 lb/in^3

Additional note: Grade 5 Titanium will not rust.


As presented above, titanium bolts/nuts have a strength that is very comparable to grade 8 steel bolts/nuts that are used in high strength applications. Furthermore, based on the density figure above grade 5 titanium is 45% lighter than steel components.


Please feel free to contact me with any questions or visit our site www.TiKORE.com. Thanks!

Thank you for the question. You get approx. 45% weight savings. 3.24lbs for steel factory set. 1.84lbs for our titanium set (For the bolts measuring M12 by 1.5). You are reducing unsprung weight from the tires.

These are beautiful compared to the stainless steel versions (titanium will not rust). You are also purchasing the "best". These are for people that want the absolute best (they are art).

Thanks
Joshua

if anyone spends that kind of money for lug bolts they should just jump off a bridge. that is absurd, especially to offer as a sponsor.

good luck.

In other words, for each wheel, four bolts would look just like the ones as pictures, and the fifth titanium lug would be with a lock key. I want the lock bolt though to be titanium as well. Please let me know or post some pics of what the lock titanium bolt looks like. Thanks,
