About AP Racing Disc to Bell Mounting Bolt Kits

Most racing and many high performance road brake discs are designed to be mounted on to the hub or stub axle by means of a mounting bell. Mounting bells are usually made from high grade Aluminium alloy although other materials can be used. This arrangement is much lighter than a one piece disc and bell, but more importantly allows some compliance to reduce the risk of distortion due to heat expansion of the disc. This becomes more important the larger the disc and is considered essential above Ø330mm diameter. There are essentially two methods of attaching the disc to the bell, ‘Bolted’ and ‘Floating’. The method to be used will depend on the particular application.

Bolted Mounting

AP Bolted Mounting DiagramFor lower duty applications and on smaller discs a bolted mounting is sometimes preferred for strength and simplicity especially for off-road application (e.g. Rallies) where debris may clog a fl oating mechanism leading to run-out and disc vibration. Stiff fl at bells should be avoided with a bolted mounting. Standard AP Racing disc mounting hole size is 6.40 / 6.45mm diameter. AP Racing offer a range of bolts, nuts and washers to suit. These are also available in wheel set kits, see below for details.

About the AP Bolt Kits

E8 - 6 Lobe Headed Bolt kits available for AP Racing discs are given in the table
below. The 6 Lobe bolt offers the following advantages over a cap head:

  • More positive drive.
  • More consistent clamping loads.
  • Lighter.
  • Better corrosion resistance
  • Less prone to damage.
  • Improved airflow.

NOTE: Bolts, nuts and washers are not available separately, but can be purchased in boxes of 100.

The Cap Head bolt will continue to be available as a loose part in kits of 100. Contact for details.

AP Racing recommend a bolt / nut tightening torque for a disc and bell of 14Nm (10.5Lb/ft).

All Bolts ¼” UNF and Each of the kits contain the required number of CP2494-117 Nut & CP2494-1305 washer.
