Beadlocks

[andy_n]

Didn't know which section to put this in but I need to know what torque pressure to do my beadlocks up to. I am about to change over two of my tyres and they were done for me last time. But obviously I would prefer to learn.

Done a search on the web but can't find anything.

found some sites that suggest 15lbs

On pirate I found an old thread that says, 5, 10 then 15 in three stages.


How does that sound??

Yep, when I had normal mechanical beadlocks I did the 5, 10, 15 thing... time consuming.

With my double beadlocks I just grab the rattle gun and hit 'em all till they are kinda tightish... pretty scientific huh?

18ft/b was what I was taught (& I think that's the sticker on my rims).....

Worked out I can make these for approx $230 a wheel!
