Formula 43 wheel help

[Bertojr29]

I bought a set of formula 43 rad10 wheels. I know they are no longer around. But what i need. Is the tourque specs for the 30 bolts that hold the 3 piece wheels together. I’m gonna be refinishing them so they have to come apart. If anyone can help me I would appreciate it thanks

I’ll check tomorrow and get back to you what size they are

I would expect you could use the same torque specs I used on my Forgelines, as I'll assume the hardware is going to be the same size. I was told to use 26 ft-lb for any bolt/nut fasteners and 25 ft-lb for any blind bolts (which is what it appears your wheels use). I was also told that I could use anti-seize on the bolts (although I didn't), but not to use Loctite.

And that is probably correct but I wasn't sure what size the hardware is.

Here’s a pic of the bolts that I’m talking about Thanks for the help

For those of us that went to the moon, that's 1/4" if you torque that to 25 ftlbs you will have a bad time.

12 ft lbs if they are grade 8 or better.
