Product Details

Overview & Technology

SRAM Red Brake Clamp Bolt (11.5118.001.000) is a single replacement clamp bolt and adjuster spring designed for SRAM Aero Link rim brake calipers. Part of SRAM's RB-SPP-A0 family (Manufacturer Part #: 11.5118.001.000, Product #: 200664), this small but critical component secures the caliper and provides micro-adjustment tension for consistent pad alignment. The bolt is finished in anodized red for corrosion resistance and visual coordination with red-themed builds. The included adjuster spring is engineered to maintain preload and alignment over repeated braking cycles, delivering stable, predictable modulation on rim brake setups.

Key Features

Durable construction: The clamp bolt uses a precision-machined, anodized alloy for lightweight strength and corrosion resistance, while the adjuster spring is a hardened stainless steel component that resists fatigue. Performance benefits: Together they restore the correct clamping force and pad-centering action on Aero Link calipers, helping eliminate uneven pad wear and restoring crisp, repeatable braking feel. This item ships as a single qty replacement for targeted repairs or upgrades.

Fit & Compatibility

This part is intended specifically for SRAM Aero Link rim brake systems — reference SRAM Model ID: RB-SPP-A0 and Manufacturer Part #: 11.5118.001.000 when confirming fit. It replaces OEM clamp bolt and spring assemblies on compatible SRAM calipers; always compare the part visually and by part number before installation. Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with basic rim brake maintenance. No frame modifications required, but check caliper alignment, pad clearance, and torque specifications on installation: proper seating ensures consistent braking performance and safety.

Who It's For

This replacement clamp bolt and adjuster spring is ideal for road cyclists, mechanics, and restorers working on SRAM rim brake-equipped bikes that use the Aero Link system. Whether you're refreshing an older road build, replacing lost or damaged hardware, or adding a colored accent, this part provides a precise fit and reliable function. It’s also suitable for shops and home mechanics who prefer keeping OEM-spec spares on hand — a small part that prevents bigger problems like misaligned pads or compromised braking performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this clamp bolt compatible with all SRAM rim brakes?

This clamp bolt and spring assembly is designed for SRAM Aero Link rim brake calipers (SRAM Model ID: RB-SPP-A0). It is not a universal clamp bolt — verify your caliper model and part number (11.5118.001.000) before purchase to ensure compatibility.

What tools do I need to install this bolt and spring?

Installation typically requires basic hand tools: a suitable hex wrench or screwdriver to match the bolt head and a torque wrench to ensure correct seating. Small needle-nose pliers can help position the spring during reassembly. Follow SRAM torque specs where available to avoid over-tightening.

Can I replace just one side, or should I replace both bolts and springs?

You can replace a single bolt and spring if only one side is damaged or missing. However, if the other hardware shows wear, corrosion, or fatigue, replacing both sides provides consistent performance and a matched look.

Will the anodized finish wear off quickly?

The anodized finish provides durable corrosion resistance and color. With normal use, the finish resists chipping and corrosion, but heavy abrasion or improper tools can damage the surface. Use correct tools and avoid excessive force to preserve the finish.

What are the shipping dimensions and weight for this item?

This item ships in packaging with dimensions approximately 15" x 3" x 3" and a gross weight around 0.7 lb. Actual shipping time depends on your location and chosen shipping method.

Buying Guide

When replacing brake hardware, prioritize OEM part numbers and fitment — small components like clamp bolts and adjuster springs directly affect pad centering and brake modulation. Choose the correct model (SRAM RB-SPP-A0 / 11.5118.001.000) to ensure the bolt geometry and spring tension match your Aero Link calipers. Consider buying a spare set if you depend on rim brakes regularly or if you run a color-matched build. Keep basic tools and torque specs handy, and if you’re not confident performing the swap, have a qualified mechanic handle installation to ensure safety and optimal braking performance.
