Product Details

Overview & Technology

Avid Caliper Mounting Hardware (Part #00.5318.006.001) is a compact OEM replacement kit designed to secure disc brake calipers to adapters and frames. The set includes caliper mounting bolts and matching washers sized to Avid's specifications for a precise, rattle‑free fit. The bolts are made from high-strength steel with a corrosion‑resistant finish to withstand wet, muddy conditions and repeated assembly. The hardware offers accurate thread engagement and consistent clamping force so your caliper alignment stays true ride after ride; always tighten to the manufacturer's recommended torque and inspect for wear during regular maintenance.

Key Features & Benefits

Simple, durable hardware engineered for reliable disc-brake mounting. This kit focuses on the essentials—bolts sized for Avid calipers and washers that spread clamping loads to prevent damage to adapters and frames. • Complete kit: Includes caliper mounting bolts and matching washers for one caliper mount. • High-strength steel: Hardened construction for secure clamp and long life under braking loads. • Corrosion-resistant finish: Protects threads and fastener surfaces in wet, salty, or muddy conditions. • OEM fit: Direct replacement for Avid hardware to maintain factory alignment and safety.

Fit & Compatibility

This mounting hardware is tailored for Avid calipers and their associated mounting adapters. It functions as a direct OEM replacement and also works with many aftermarket adapters that accept the same bolt pattern. If you're swapping adapters or fitting a caliper to a frame, verify bolt length and thread pitch before installation. For seamless compatibility, reference the Manufacturer Part # 00.5318.006.001 or Forest product number 180459 when matching parts. If in doubt, bring your old bolt to the shop or measure thread diameter and length—our team can help confirm fitment.

Whether you're fixing a stripped thread, replacing corroded bolts after winter, or keeping a spares kit in your toolbox, this hardware gives you peace of mind with an OEM-style fit. Also useful for bike shops and builders who demand consistent fastener performance when mounting calipers to adapters or frames during assembly and service.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is included in this kit?

The kit includes the caliper mounting bolts and matching washers required to mount an Avid caliper to its adapter or frame mount. It is sold as a set to service one caliper mounting position.

Are these bolts stainless steel?

The bolts are high-strength steel with a corrosion-resistant finish to protect against rust and wear. If you need full stainless fasteners for long-term salt exposure, check with our team for stainless alternatives.

Will these work with non-Avid adapters?

They are designed as direct Avid replacements and will fit many aftermarket adapters that use the same bolt pattern. Always verify bolt diameter, thread pitch, and length before install to ensure proper engagement.

What torque should I use when installing the bolts?

Tighten to the caliper manufacturer’s recommended torque specification to avoid over- or under-tightening. If you don't have the spec handy, consult Avid documentation or ask our tech team—using a calibrated torque wrench is recommended.

Can I reuse the existing washers or bolts?

Reusing washers is sometimes acceptable if they are undamaged, but reusing bolts that show corrosion, thread wear, or deformation is not recommended. For best safety and brake performance, replace degraded hardware with new bolts and washers.

How many sets should I carry on multi-day rides?

One spare set per bike is generally sufficient for emergency repairs, but if you ride remote bikepacking routes or remote alpine trails, consider carrying two sets and basic tools to address mounting hardware issues.

Buying Guide

When buying caliper mounting hardware, match the part to your caliper brand and adapter type. Confirm bolt diameter, thread pitch, and length—these determine secure engagement and correct caliper spacing. OEM kits like this Avid set give you peace of mind for fit and finish. Consider material and finish: hardened steel fasteners provide strength, while corrosion-resistant or stainless options help in wet climates. Keep a spare set in your repair kit or at home to avoid downtime on the trail.
