1968-1982 Corvette SB Wedge Locking Header Bolts - Black - 3/4in Lx3/8in W - 12 Bolts
Restore and customize your Corvette with this part! Engineered to Meet or Exceed OEM Specifications.
- Each Grade 8 Header Bolt is permanently assembled with a pair of special washers. When the bolt is torqued to 28+ ft-lbs, the washers' super-hardened external teeth bite into and grip the bottom of the bolt head and the top surface of the header. After being self-locked in this manner, any bolt-loosening rotation is blocked by a wedge-locking action created by the washers' interfacing, matching cams. It's an uphill climb: vibration that might ordinarily loosen the bolt actually increases the wedge-locking tension, securing the bolt even more. Because this simple wedge-locking method uses tension instead of friction, contact with oil actually facilitates the wedge effect.
- When changing headers, these Header Bolts can be untightened with a normal wrench, lubricated, and reused.
