Product Overview

These Gold Metric Stem Bolts are replacement hardware designed specifically for modern USA-made FIT and S&M stems. Sold in a six-piece set with M8 x 1.25 x 25mm threading and gold zinc plating, these bolts provide exact replacements for damaged or stripped stem bolts on American-manufactured stems.

Compatibility and Ideal Use Cases

These bolts are designed specifically for modern USA-made FIT and S&M stems and will NOT work with most imported BMX stems, which use different bolt head dimensions. Before purchasing, verify your stem is USA-manufactured—if you have an imported stem, you will need different bolts with smaller head diameters. Best suited for riders replacing stripped, damaged, or lost stem bolts on compatible stems, or those wanting to color-coordinate hardware with gold components. The gold zinc plating resists corrosion better than bare steel and maintains appearance over time. Always torque stem bolts to manufacturer specifications—over-tightening can strip threads or crack stems, while under-tightening allows handlebars to slip during riding. Replace bolts if threads show damage or wear to maintain secure handlebar clamping.
