The Wolf Tooth Bottle Cage Bolts are premium, precision-machined fasteners designed for cyclists who want to replace standard, wear-prone hardware with a durable, high-quality component that adds a touch of color to their bike. Ideal for mountain, road, and gravel riders, these M5 x 15mm bolts provide a secure fit for most standard water bottle cages; however, users should verify their specific cage depth requirements before installation to ensure the bolt length is compatible with their frame's mounting points.

Yes, they are compatible, but always use a torque wrench to ensure you do not exceed the recommended torque limits specified by your carbon frame manufacturer.
These are intended primarily for bottle cages. While they fit any standard M5 hole, you should verify that the 15mm length is appropriate for the component you are mounting.
Thread locker is generally not required, but if you ride on extremely rough terrain, a light application of a blue, removable thread-locking compound can prevent loosening.
Each purchase includes four bolts, which is sufficient for mounting two standard bottle cages.
These bolts follow the standard M5 x 0.8mm thread pitch used on almost all modern bicycle frames.
Back the bolt out and ensure it is not cross-threading. Clean the frame boss with a thread tap if there is debris or paint buildup inside the hole.
Ensure you are using a high-quality hex key that is not rounded. Stop immediately if the tool feels loose and use a removal tool if the head is damaged.
Check if your frame boss has a bottom and add a small nylon or rubber washer under the bolt head to take up the extra space, provided it doesn't interfere with the cage.
Installation of your Wolf Tooth Bottle Cage Bolts is straightforward but requires attention to torque. Use a clean, appropriately sized hex wrench to avoid stripping the bolt head.
Compatibility: These are designed for standard M5 bottle cage mounts. If your frame uses M6 or unique proprietary mounting hardware, these bolts will not be compatible. For care, keep the threads lightly greased if riding in corrosive environments, such as coastal areas or during winter road riding, to prevent galvanic corrosion.
