The DT Swiss Centre Lock to 6-Bolt Disc Brake Rotor Adapter (HWZXXX00S4760S) is designed for cyclists who want the performance benefits of Centre-Lock hubs while retaining their existing 6-bolt brake rotors. It provides a lightweight, reliable mounting solution for riders upgrading their wheelsets, though it is strictly limited to 160mm rotors and specific thickness tolerances.

No, this adapter is strictly limited to a maximum rotor size of 160mm.
Yes, it includes a low-profile lockring designed to clear tight road fork tolerances.
No, the adapter is designed for rotor thicknesses between 1.8mm and 2.2mm; using a thinner rotor may cause instability.
The lockring splines are precise; aluminium tools are less likely to score or deform the metal compared to harder steel tools.
The adapter weighs approximately 29g.
You are likely using a steel tool that is too aggressive. Switch to an aluminium tool like the Park BBT-69 to protect the soft metal of the ring.
Ensure the lockring is torqued to the manufacturer's specification. Check that the rotor thickness is within the 1.8mm to 2.2mm range.
To install, place the adapter onto the Centre-Lock hub, align your 6-bolt rotor, and secure it with the provided lockring. It is highly recommended to use an aluminium tool, such as the Park BBT-69, to protect the delicate splines on the lockring from deformation during tightening. Ensure your rotor thickness falls between 1.8mm and 2.2mm before installation. Keep the spline interface clean and lightly greased to prevent seizing over time, and always perform a test ride to ensure there is no lateral play in the rotor once installed.
