Product Description
Replacement thumb screw bolts for the Mobility Support Harness; the bolts hold the handle on the harness. This is the “new style” that screws into the female nuts on your harness support bars for harnesses made AFTER December 2015.
Choose the set of hardware you prefer (we will add Teflon plumbers tape to each bolt so it stays snug):
- Complete set: Includes a pair of round thumb screw bolts, a pair of tee thumb screw wing bolts, and 6 rubber washers. Just like the kit that came with your harness.
- Round Bolts: A pair of round knurled thumb screws plus washers.
- Wing Bolts: A pair of tee thumb screws plus washers.
- Locking Bolt Kit: for those who want to install a set of bolts that do not come unscrewed. Includes wing bolts (Tee thumb screws) and locking wingnuts. Installation requires tools including hex key (Allen wrench) and channel lock plyers and patience.
Select size based on the thickness of the support bar.
- Standard support bars use the standard size bolts (for 1/8″ thick support bars).
- TALL handles need the longer bolts to fit the heavy weight support bars (for 1/4″ thick support bars). See photos for details.
Tips for using your MSH handle:
- Always loosen the bolts before folding the handle. Failure to do so may ratchet the right side too tight and cause it to lock up.
- Always tighten the bolts after raising the handle. Not too tight, just a little snug.
- Place the rubber washer on the bolt before screwing into the harness handle.
- Keep a spare bolt handy at all times.
- If the bolts want to loosen too much, apply some Teflon plumbers tape to the threads of the bolts.
- Consult your harness Owner’s Manual for more info.
- All thumbs screws are standard “quarter twenty” thread bolts: SAE 1/4-20
