Frequently Asked Questions
Are titanium rotor bolts worth it?
Yes — titanium is lighter than steel, resists rust and corrosion, and maintains strength. Riders often choose them to prevent seized bolts and ensure long-term reliability, with the bonus of colour-matched style.
Do titanium bolts fit all disc rotors?
Yes — Gorilla Brakes titanium bolts use the standard 6-bolt rotor pattern, so they’re compatible with the vast majority of MTB, road, gravel, and eBike disc brake systems. Just choose the correct thread length (10–20 mm) for your setup, including options for eBike magnet mounts.
Are titanium rotor bolts as strong as steel?
Yes — high-grade titanium rotor bolts offer comparable tensile strength to steel while being lighter and highly resistant to corrosion. They won’t rust or seize like standard steel bolts.
Will titanium rotor bolts save weight?
Yes — titanium is lighter than steel. The weight savings per rotor is small (a few grams), but across the bike it adds up, especially when combined with other titanium hardware.
Are titanium rotor bolts safe for eBikes?
Yes — as long as you select the correct thread length. Gorilla Brakes offers 10–20 mm options, including bolts designed for eBike magnet mounts.
