Warp 9 Stem Lock Replacement Bolt

The replacement bolt for a Warp 9 Stem Lock, updated with a Torx T45 head in place of the hex head used on the earlier design. A Torx socket grips the whole head rather than six corners, which is what keeps it from rounding out on a bolt that is torqued and then left alone for a season.

It is machined from 7075-T6 aluminum and black anodized. It is a service part and works with the Warp 9 Steer Lock kit only. Warp 9 recommends anti-seize on the bottom inch of the threads, which is worth doing: an aluminum bolt threaded into a steering tube that sees water is the classic place for a seized fastener.
