Weinmann 610 bolt thread?

[Pete Biggs]

Does the 610 brake caliper use a metric thread for its mounting bolt? What size?

Thanks in advance ~PB

Yep.

> What size?

All brake calipers made in the last 30 years use the same 6 x 1 mm ("M6") threading.

All cantilever brakes also use this threading.

M6x1., same as the pivot bolts. Use a Nylock nut for the mount to the bicycle.

What if i want want weinmann 610 mounting bolts ?? i imagine that it would be pretty difficult to
find chrome bolts 2-3' long, mostly un-threaded, with a "waterbottle" shaped cylinder head with no
scoring for a screwdriver ... where can i find such replacement parts ?? thanx,

- don

We have those, as will most competent bicycle shops which service bicycles. Weinmann 1041 front,
1045 rear. These numbers are also used by the aftermarket suppliers.
