FAQ:
Q1: What is this bolt used for?
A1: It replaces the pivot bolt on Shimano XT M8100 / SLX M7100 rear derailleurs, offering better durability and corrosion resistance.
Q2: Is this compatible with other Shimano models?
A2: It is designed specifically for M8100 and M7100. Compatibility with other Shimano or SRAM models is not guaranteed. Please measure your original bolt.
Q3: Can I use it on a road bike?
A3: Only if your bike uses the XT M8100 or SLX M7100 derailleur. Otherwise, it's not recommended.
Q4: What’s the benefit of titanium?
A4: Titanium offers high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent corrosion resistance, and longer service life compared to steel or aluminum bolts.
Q5: Will the color fade or chip?
No, the color will not easily fade or chip under normal use.
- Gold, Rainbow, Black, Blue: These colors are created using a high-quality PVD vacuum nitride coating process. It forms a dense metallic nitride layer that enhances surface hardness and impact resistance. The colors are rich, deep, and embedded beneath the surface — they won't fade or chip unless subjected to intense abrasion.
- Green, Purple, Candy: These are produced using anodic oxidation, which forms an oxide film of varying thickness on the titanium surface. This film enhances hardness and corrosion resistance. Interestingly, the vivid color results from light interference - not dyes. While anodized finishes are slightly softer than PVD coatings, they still provide excellent durability for everyday use.
