binding screws

Take em with you, and check first hand...

Make sure you get stainless hardware. Like Joe said, either take them with you, or bring a binding to verify the length. Hopefully someone could give you an exact length if you don't have any screws at all.

hey jake, what year are your ultras?? the ones with the new composites plates or the thin aluminum ones??

I used 3/4" with my alpha binding & Substance setup, but the alpha has a really thick plate. I bought 4-1/2", 4-3/4" & 4 - 1", along with stainless washers & lock washers for under $5 at home depot. That way my Tool Box has a range of parts to keep me boarding. I also used some lock tite on the threads to help out.

why are you getting them from home depot? Get some binding screws?

thanks guys. i got the 1/4-20 3/4 inch length and they worked fine. i got them from home depot so i didnt have to spend $20 on screws and wait a week for them to come. my local shop only has hyperlite bindings so they only have "the claw" type screws.

Jake,

I hope you atleast purchased stainless hardware. I would hate to have rust stain my equipment.

ya, i know exactly what you mean i hate waiting.

yea i got all stainless. it actually doesnt look bad. i got to get out for a little ride after the long winter. water temp is cold. ice came off friday, I was out sunday with a 3/2 wetsuit. feet were a little cold and the wind was chilly. The air was 55 and it was sunny. feels warm after all that winter freezing weather.
