Why Use A Titanium Sump Bolt Kit?

Over time your sump bolts will become rusted and corroded, so we created the  K20 titanium sump bolt kit.

This range of racing hardware is built using the finest quality aircraft-grade Titanium Alloy, Ti-6AL-4V (Grade 5) - a material renowned for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. We take pride in the fact that all our fasteners are forged, and the threads are made using a unique rolling process, resulting in increased resistance to fatigue and a reduced risk of galling during fastening.

Grade 5 Titanium fasteners are a reliable replacement for Grade 8.8 steel fasteners, offering a weight saving of approximately 45% compared to equivalent steel bolts. This significant weight reduction is particularly beneficial in the racing industry, where every ounce matters.

In addition to the weight savings, Titanium is exceptionally corrosion resistant to a wide range of aggressive chemicals, ensuring a longer service life than standard BZP steel bolts. This allows our hardware to perform exceptionally well in harsh environmental conditions, making it a popular choice among racing enthusiasts.

Overall, the titanium K20 sump bolt kit is a top-of-the-line choice that guarantees superior performance, durability, and reliability. It is also a direct replacement as it matches the OEM bolts perfectly, ensuring a guaranteed fitment every time.

Lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects on all of our grade 5 titanium hardware as we know it will stand the test of time, and we want to offer a risk-free buying experience.

K20 Titanium Sump Bolt Kit Installation Guide:

Follow our quick and easy installation guide to get your fresh new titanium k20 sump bolts installed as quickly as possible. If you are unsure of the steps below, please get a professional to install them.

  1. First, jack the car up using all the safety precautions, such as ensuring the axle stands are in the correct location.
  2. Drain the oil by removing the sump plug, just in case you get any oil leakage while changing bolts. If you don't already, now might be a good time to get one of our Exoracing magnetic sump plugs to catch any nasty metal filings in the sump.
  3. Next, remove the sump bolts individually and install our titanium in their place, torquing the OEM factory torque settings of 8.7 ftlb / 12nm.
  4. Torque the bolts from the rear centre to the front centre, following a crisscross pattern around the sump.
  5. Install the sump plug, fill the engine with oil to the correct level, remove the axle stands and let the car down.
  6. You are all done with the installation. If you get any good photos, please tag us on social media. We would love to see them!
