Xplore screws sourcing
Xplore screws sourcing
Hey. I emailed Rottefella but have not received a response.
I have one of the first issue xplore bindings with tiny short screws. Where can I source longer screws that work with the binding hole cut-outs?
Thanks!

Re: Xplore screws sourcing
I went with inserts and have a LOT of extra screws. If you can send a picture of your current screw and the length I can compare it to mine to see if it is any different. Let me know what you're measuring, whether it is the entire screw or just the length of the threads. I don't care which it is just so long as I know.

I'm about to dig out my ski stuff and start tuning. I don't know how many you need but I'm happy to drop enough for a set or two in a padded mailer and send 'em your way, gratis!

I picked these bindings up at REI for $60. They are missing one screw and the plastic screw covers... I would very much like to get a few extra screws. I was going to email Rotefella and ask for a few screws but since the OP didn't have any luck I won't waste my time.

Re: Xplore screws sourcing
What length you using for the inserts? I just ordered Binding Freedom 10mm T20 Low-heads and wondering if I should step up to 12mmJohnSKepler wrote: ↑Mon Oct 28, 2024 12:57 pm

Re: Xplore screws sourcing
What length are your screws. I just bought 2 pairs and all the screws in both boxes are 16.3mm, though there is reference to longer 21.8mm screws in the mounting instructions.
