Anyone bent pivot race brakes out to, say, 90mm? Heat or no heat?

The only reason to remove them is if you think more epoxy and filler makes the ski stronger. Which it might. But if it’s epoxied in, how different is that from an epoxy golf tee?
Yo Mags! Getting ready to mount some Bent Chetler 90's for a friend's kid. They were previously mounted with Shift. I'm going Warden 11. It looks like I can reuse two toe holes and end up mounted very close to the line. The old mount holes look OK. Should be good to reuse them, no?
It was mounted with a clear glue before. Not sure if the holes were tapped or screws just run in. I don't want to run screws in for a test fit because I figure that could further compromise the holes. They are volcanoed a bit, but threads look OK on close inspection. Glue and go?
I would
Dude.... you're awake way too early.Quote:

You should be totally fine to reuse the holes in this situation. If the volcanoes are tall I would shave them down flush or close to flush. I reuse holes all the time on kids (and adult) skis since they have frequently been remounted once or twice by the time we get them used.Quote:

I reuse screw holes all the time, if boot center is gona be close I would call it ON so in situ you describe I would shave the volcano, cram the hole with FG and 2 part, run the screws in till they start to snug or spin, leave to cure over night and crank them next day
xxx'er, I have a question about how to fix a hole with epoxy and FG (either just filling as you note above or fixing a known spinner) and let the epoxy set overnight before cranking down the screws. Do you heat the screws with a soldering iron to break the metal-epoxy bond before cranking down, or do you just crank them cold?Quote:

Boot center landed about 3mm back from the line. I'll call that a success.
make the epoxy/ FG mixture heavy on the FG, Epoxy hasnt really had time to stick yet so I would just crank it downQuote:

Re: Stripped binding hole repair
Hi Al, thought I'd give you an update on this. The stripped mount repair has held up fine. I got in 101 days skiing in Austria but the snow was really bad this year so probably only about 15-20 on the Thugs. Still, thanks a lot for your help, hope you had a good winter!
Lo
wax your screws. seriously.Quote:

you have done this fix ?
I dont consider myself an authority,
Ive been techin a few decades cause its a good skibum gig and i get paid.
i do have more mounts than posts in this thread :fmicon:
theres a reason shops and most experienced tech use jigs, bits, taps helicoils and use the same protocals mount after mount day after day
cause they work and theyre time proven and effective
any you tards want help with a mount come see sheldon and I or hit me up to use the tools to do things in a brofessional manner

oh great the troll is here
I've mixed and slathered gallons of epoxy on surfboards, guns, furniture and other wood things, boats, and cars. The principles are all the same - use a release agent when you don't want things to stick. Pam spray, minwax paste wax, case lube, all work well for that very thing.Quote:
