Anyone know where I can get caliper bolt washers?

[NorvernRob]

Hi all

Had an issue with my front caliper moving today. I checked the torque when I got home and it was fine, so removed the caliper and the washer with the serrated edge that sits between the caliper and the frame was broken.

I can't find any on Wiggle, though it would be helpful if I knew exactly what they were called instead of just 'caliper bolt washers'. I can't get to a shop until next weekend so would rather order one now and get it done before then.

Thanks for any help

Rob

probably a star washer going by your description of it, you can get internal and external stars. Ebay, Amazon have them

Think these are what you need: http://www.modelfixings.co.uk/nord_lock_washers.htm.

Don't worry that these are on an aircraft model builder's site- they collect together all sorts of fasteners that we modellers can use (and cyclists!).

Suspect you'll need them in M5 or M6. If you order Monday you'll have then Weds v probably.
