Caliper bolts help?

Post by rolesyboy »

I am rebuilding several sets of S disc assemblies and would like to know the spec of the 2 bolts that hold the caliper halves together. I would like to replace them with Bright Zinc plated. Is there anything special about them as they do seem to be alarmingly expensive from Minispares compared with the caliper retaining bolts (although they do come with the seal)
Cheers. Mark

In the past I have just used 3.8" UNF Bolts of the correct length with no problems.
