My ham fisted-ness has slightly rounded off one of the fixing bolts on my shimano m775 calliper so im after a replacement.
according to the Shimano Tech Doc, its a M6 x 18.7mm bolt.
Will the following be an OK replacement for it?

If not can someone point me towards a online shop where I could get reasonable priced replacements from?
Many thanks, Jai

yeah I saw that and thought it was a total rip off hence me asking for reasonably priced replacements.0

Assuming you have the clearance at the rear of the adapter for an extra 1.3mm then these would fit.
I wouldn't be happy with anything other than hi tensile myself & you'll be wanting some threadlock too.Statistically, Six Out Of Seven Dwarves Aren't Happy0 -
ok thanks so just being steel is not enough? I need high tensile steel?
I'll check the clearance tonight. If there is not enough clearance, would these 18mmm ones do?

Im guess loosing 0.7mm would not be too bad?0
