The Wolf Tooth Bottle Cage Bolts are premium, precision-engineered hardware designed for cyclists who prioritize both aesthetic customization and reliable component security. Machined from durable 7075-T6 aluminum, these M5 x 15mm bolts offer a significant upgrade over standard steel fasteners, providing a lightweight yet robust solution for securing water bottle cages. While these bolts provide an excellent color-matched finish for custom bike builds, users should be mindful of the aluminum material properties and avoid over-tightening to prevent stripping the threads.

Yes, they use the standard M5 thread size, which is the industry standard for virtually all bicycle bottle cages.
These bolts have a thread length of 15mm.
They are specifically designed as water bottle cage bolts and should not be used in high-load areas like stems or brake calipers.
Each purchase includes a set of 4 bolts.
They feature a high-quality anodized finish that is highly resistant to fading and sun exposure.
A standard hex key (Allen key) is required.
Back the bolt out and ensure the frame boss threads are clean and free of rust or grit; do not force it.
Ensure your hex key is not worn out and is fully seated into the bolt head before applying pressure.
Consider using a very light application of a blue thread-locking compound, though usually, proper seating is sufficient.
Installing these bolts is straightforward. Ensure the frame bosses are free of debris or old thread-locking compound before installation. Use a clean, appropriately sized hex key to tighten the bolts. Because aluminum is softer than steel, it is recommended to use a torque wrench set to the manufacturer's suggested torque—typically light pressure is sufficient to secure a cage. Avoid using power tools to prevent stripping. Periodically check the tightness of the bolts after long rides on harsh terrain to ensure they remain secure. When cleaning your bike, a simple wipe with a soft cloth will maintain the luster of the anodized finish.
