|
|
Just bought a new Liquid Force 2014 TRIP
Hit a problem ... this board was to replace an older Liquid Force DLX47
We are reusing existing bindings ... however found that the fixing thumb screws from the original board are a much coarser thread - 20 tpi (1/4" UNC ?)
Obviously at some point board threads have changed thread size, at a guess it looks like M6 ... but as US do not normally use ISO Metric threads would like to check.
Are Liquid Force boards using M6 threads ? |

Don't know if they're M6, but they are metric. |

2014 LF is metric. M6 is what you need. Your older bindings are going to need to use M6 screws instead of the 1/4 20 that come with older boards.
We have a number of M6 screws at boardstop. Need to know what your length of your binding screws are. You will probably have to replace the thumbscrews with just M6 bolts.

Probably a pan head bolt is what you will need. _________________ Wakeskating

I got a set of M6 and cut them down ... worked until I bought a new set of bindings.
BTW - Metric threads ... welcome America to the joys of Metrication, so much better than old feet & inches. |
