Rip off price, considering what they may cost WHOLESALE...but hey, that's life...

Euro20 a piece
8 Grams


I suppose this is what one wants X 4 for the Fwb 800 extended volume chamber M4 bolts, right Mr. Guru ? what's the ideal length ? I may order a dozen if I can source elsewhere ... :lol:

Never tried this one but has what you need.

I like Varide products but they are not cheap and shipping from Italy is very high.

4 Cap Head M3 X 14, cant have longer threads bottom out within 0.25mm. After first 27 months production of front blocks you can then get away with M3X16.

4 Cap Head M3X25 to replace original reg retainer screws to block. Ft will be a lot longer, cylinder, reg ext will twist, expand and contract more loosening off.
If a jobs worth doing, do it right or not at all.

I also use them for the 2 reasons first don't rust second you won't destroy the head removing them like with SS, the cheap ones are not very strong but we get what we pay.

If you have a CC power supply that go to 120V you can anodise them to change color :D It even work with 9V batteries in series but don’t use coke is better with diluted battery acid or similar.

Delphinus,

Thanks for the public tip..

I was also going to do a future feature and mention - yes, it IS possible to anodise Taitanium.

Great Minds think alike. Well, for sure, "Pimpers" and owners of said "Pimped" air rifles :D

Just found this, cool website name > http://www.tastynuts.com/

Good find on the chart Miguel been meaning to try it for a number of years.
Theres some videos on youtube.

That's a good reason being more resilient with poor fitting allen keys and main reason I wont use stainless which only come in a softer grade than steel 8.8, 10.9 and 12.9.
From the best Umbrako steels 190000 psi, stainless 95000 psi at room temp.
Grade 5 titanium TI6 AL4V often used is 138000 psi, lower than steel

Most screws come from china with one good maker think its in NL.

Better have a read it may turn you off titanium.
