Phil Wood 8mm crank arm bolts
Phil Wood crank bolts are machined from stainless steel and are 20mm long, which allows for more than 3/4" of engagement with the spindle.
The threads are first cold-forged, then the bolts are subjected to two heat-treat processes to maximize their strength. The head of the bolt accepts an 8mm hex head wrench.
Specifications
• fits all square taper cranksets/BBs using 8mm (M8) bolts
• sold in pairs
Recommended torque
Proper tightening is crucial to prevent the crank from loosening and damaging the crank arm.
The recommended torque spec for square taper crank bolts is generally 35-45 Nm (300–400 in-lbs) for most setups.
Tighten bolts in stages to 35-50 Nm, alternating sides, or until securely seated. Do not over-torque, as this can deform the crank/spindle interface.
Be sure to check the bolt tightness after the first few rides, as the arms will typically settle on the spindle and the bolts will require slight re-tightening.
