Motorcycle screw material selection: Which material is better

First, steel screws

Steel screw is one of the most widely used screw materials for motorcycles. Its main characteristics are cheap price, high strength, but easy to rust and corrosion.

Steel screws are suitable for places that need to be removed and replaced frequently, such as brake discs, chains, etc. In the open storage environment, it is easy to rust by the action of oxygen and water, so it is necessary to carry out anti-corrosion treatment for the screw surface.

Second, stainless steel screw

Stainless steel screws are mainly composed of 18% chromium and 8% nickel, stainless steel screws with corrosion resistance, not easy to rust, beautiful and other advantages.

Stainless steel screws are suitable for some humid environments, or places that need beautiful appearance, such as frames, mirror frames, etc. However, the strength of stainless steel screws is relatively low, and the bearing force is not as good as that of steel screws, so it is necessary to choose according to the actual situation.

Third, titanium alloy screw

In recent years, titanium alloy screws are more and more favored by motorcycle enthusiasts. Because titanium alloy screws are lighter than other materials, the strength is also very high. Moreover, titanium alloy screws are corrosion resistant and durable, and have a long service life.

Due to the high price of titanium alloy screws, it is suitable for high-grade motorcycles or track motorcycles with requirements for lightweight. For ordinary owners, it can be used in key parts to improve driving safety performance.

In general, steel screws, stainless steel screws and titanium alloy screws are common screw materials for motorcycles. Steel screws with high strength, suitable for disassembly and replacement of the place; Stainless steel screws are beautiful and durable, suitable for some places that need beautiful appearance; The titanium alloy screw is relatively light and high strength, is a good choice to improve driving safety performance. In actual use, it can be selected according to the needs of different parts.
