Radium Engineering Titanium Lug Bolts.

These fasteners are machined from forged 6AL-4V (Grade 5) Titanium alloy rod. They feature a 60 degree tapered conical seat compatible with most OEM and aftermarket wheels. The threads are rolled, not machined, for superior strength and wear resistance. Grade 5 Titanium has 94% the yield strength of a metric Grade 10.9 steel fastener and is over 43% lighter. A non-marring socket is recommended for installation.
