LANDMASTER 64 Titanium Caliper Center Bolt M8 x L30 x P1.25 Taper Cap
LANDMASTER original 64-titanium bolt, specially developed for the center fastening section of Brembo two-piece radial calipers.
This is a LANDMASTER original Ti-6Al-4V bolt, developed specifically for use in the center fastening section of Brembo two-piece radial calipers.
The size is:
M8 x L30 x P1.25
The material used is Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy, commonly known as 64-titanium.
This product is not a generic M8 x 30 titanium bolt that has been repurposed.
It is an original bolt specially manufactured by LANDMASTER, with careful consideration given to its dimensions, shape, material, and manufacturing method, specifically for use in brake caliper fastening sections.
Furthermore, the distinctive features of this product are not limited to its 64-titanium material.
The head is forged.
The threaded section is roll-formed.
Despite being a small-batch production, this is a specification unique to LANDMASTER, where cost has been invested even in the manufacturing process.
Specially developed as a center bolt for two-piece radial calipers
Some Brembo radial calipers are not monolithic but are two-piece types, where the left and right caliper bodies are fastened together by multiple bolts.
This product was developed by LANDMASTER as a bolt to fasten the center section of such calipers.
It is not merely a decorative bolt.
It has been manufactured with careful consideration not only for the material but also for the head shape and thread manufacturing method, based on its intended use in a critical functional component like a brake caliper.
The size is:
M8 x L30 x P1.25
The head shape adopts a tapered cap, designed to fit neatly around the caliper.
This product is not a repurposed generic M8 titanium bolt, but rather a product specifically designed for use in caliper fastening sections.
Uses Ti-6Al-4V, commonly known as 64-titanium
The material used is Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy.
Ti-6Al-4V is a titanium alloy that combines lightness, high strength, and corrosion resistance.
This material was not chosen simply because of the name "titanium."
LANDMASTER adopted Ti-6Al-4V for this bolt, considering its application as a fastening bolt for brake calipers.
Although it is often a less conspicuous part, because it is a crucial fastening component of the caliper, both the material and the manufacturing method have been given meticulous attention during production.
Forged head
In this product, the bolt head is formed by forging.
Forging is a manufacturing method that forms a shape by applying pressure to the material.
While small-batch titanium bolts can also be manufactured by cutting the entire part from round bar stock, in this product, the head is formed by forging.
Furthermore, considering the fit during installation, the head shape is a tapered cap.
Ti-6Al-4V.
Forged head.
Roll-formed threads.
The manufacturing process itself differs from generic bolts simply machined entirely from 64-titanium material.
Threads are roll-formed, incurring additional cost
A particularly important aspect of LANDMASTER's 64-titanium bolts is the threaded section.
Instead of cutting the threads, a roll-forming process is employed, which forms the threads by plastically deforming the material.
This product features:
Ti-6Al-4V
M8 x L30 x P1.25
For Brembo two-piece radial calipers
Tapered cap head
Forged head
Roll-formed threads
It is not common for small-batch Ti-6Al-4V bolts to employ roll-forming for the threaded section.
Instead of choosing a simpler manufacturing method for small-batch production, LANDMASTER deliberately invested in the roll-forming process.
This product is characterized by attention not only to the material but also to the manufacturing method.
64-titanium bolt produced with "forging" and "roll-forming"
This product is not a generic M8 x 30 titanium bolt being sold for caliper use.
LANDMASTER specifically developed it for use in the center fastening section of Brembo two-piece radial calipers.
Its features are:
Ti-6Al-4V
M8 x L30 x P1.25
Tapered cap shape
Forged head
Roll-formed threads
Despite being a small-batch production, the head is forged, and the threads are roll-formed.
This manufacturing process itself is a major feature of this product.
Tapered Cap Head
The head features a tapered cap shape.
When installed on a caliper, the bolt head does not appear excessively large, maintaining a clean shape that does not detract from the original design of the Brembo caliper.
It was manufactured with consideration not only for its role as a functional component but also for its fit and feel when installed.
While not solely for aesthetic purposes, this is a LANDMASTER specification that considers both function and appearance.

When used as a general-purpose M8 x L30 x P1.25 bolt
Although this product was developed as a center bolt for Brembo two-piece radial calipers, its thread standard is M8 x L30 x P1.25.
It may be used for other applications if all conditions match, such as bolt diameter, underhead length, thread pitch, head dimensions, seating surface shape, and required strength.
However, do not judge compatibility based solely on the M8 x L30 x P1.25 dimensions.
Especially when using it in critical areas such as brake systems, it is essential to thoroughly confirm the dimensions, shape, specifications, and tightening conditions of the currently installed bolt.
It is not easy to produce the same specifications in small quantities today.
This product was produced in small quantities during the LANDMASTER era for use as a center bolt in Brembo two-piece radial calipers.

Tapered cap shape.
Forged head.
And roll-formed threads.
This is not a mass-produced, generic M8 titanium bolt.
A particularly significant feature is that, despite being a small-batch product, the head is forged, and the threads are roll-formed.
Combining forging and roll-forming processes for a small quantity of Ti-6Al-4V bolts is not easy today.
Considering not only material costs but also the forging and roll-forming processes and their setup, producing new items with the same specifications in small quantities would require a considerable cost.
It was not made simply because it was a small-batch production.
Despite being a small-batch product, it is a bolt manufactured by investing in the necessary production processes.
64-titanium bolt created by LANDMASTER for brakes
The original purpose was not to create a general-purpose titanium bolt.
It was to create a 64-titanium center bolt for Brembo two-piece radial calipers.
This is a LANDMASTER original part born from that idea.

This is LANDMASTER's original Ti-6Al-4V caliper center bolt, manufactured with meticulous attention not only to the material but also to the shape and manufacturing process.
Important Usage Information
This product is not an original Brembo part.
Brake calipers are critical components related to vehicle safety.
Also, depending on the caliper, the manufacturer may not intend for disassembly or reassembly.
When using this product as a caliper center bolt, thoroughly check the structure of the target caliper, the dimensions, shape, and specifications of the genuine bolt, the required strength, tightening torque, and assembly method.
For installation, we recommend that the work be performed by a mechanic or specialist with expert knowledge of brake systems.
