I recommend this product

ConsOnly really needed the snap ring

ProsCorrect part easily identified

Bought as I had lost the snap ring, but probably no harm replacing the bolt as well. The correct part was easily identified on the website.

Bad Design

ConsMade of very soft steel which reacts with the magnesium alloy of the calliper

ProsNone really

Had to replace because previous one locked itself to the calliper and had to be drilled out. Turns out this 'dissimilar metal' effect is a common (and inevitable) occurrence. Best to grease the threads, take them out every ride or replace with a split pin

Is there an alternative to this for br-rs785 or can I just use a split pin

By Tony Daniells

15 Jul 2020

SJS Customer Service:

No, use of a split pin this application is not recommended by the manufacture- therefor the correct pin but be used to prevent damage to the calliper.

Can this be used with TRP Spyre-C cable actuated disc breaks?

By Sam

SJS Customer Service:

Sorry, this is a Shimano part, it's true that the brakes accept Shimano pads but I can't be sure this would also fit the brake. HOWEVER the TRP Brake Pad Retaining Pin, copy and paste this link:

Is there a steel version of this pin?

By Steve

25 Mar 2020

This pin is made of low-grade aluminium, and is prone to seizing in the caliper. Do you have a suitable steel alternative (prefereably with a hex head)?

SJS Customer Service:

Unfortunately we do not have another option to offer! There are other made with allen key heads, but whether they fit is not something we have tested.

Is there a hex/allen head version of this

By Leo Janson

08 Jul 2019

Is there a version of this bolt that has a hex/allen head instead of this flathead? Like you get on the Shimano MTB callipers, as the flatheads just round off.

SJS Customer Service:

Yes there are, but not that are suitable for this size/shape.

By Chris Starkie

Would this work with an Ultegra 8070 caliper?
Cheers
