If your hubs feature the Shimano Centerlock splined interface rotor mounting system and you want to be able to use traditional 6 bolt type rotors, this simple to use adaptor kit allows you to do so.
Features
Lightweight alloy body with splined interface and 6 fitted stainless pins with a stainless washer and an alloy lockring allows the quick removal of the rotor simply by releasing the low-profile alloy lockring with a standard HG type cassette lockring tool.
Specifications
Material: 6061 alloy body and CNC lockring, with stainless pins and washer.Hub Fitting: Shimano Centerlock splined.Max hub axle: 19mm outer axle diameter.Tool required: HG type cassette lockring tool.Max Torque: 40Nm.Rotor Fitting: IS (International Standard) 6 bolt typeRotor required: Stainless IS 1.8mm minimum to 2.3mm maximum.Max rotor size: 180mm Diameter.Note:
To allow access for the conventional HG type lockring tool, this set is designed to only be used in conjunction with hub axle ends with a maximum outer diameter of 19mm. (Halo RD2 and GXC hubs are compatible.)
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE:
Although they may appear to be very similar - the threads on HG cassette lockrings are different to those on the Centerlock brake lockring threads. Both lockrings use the same HG tool for fitting but DO NOT attempt to interchange HG and Centerlock lockrings - as irreparable damage will be caused to threads and critical brake safety parts will fail.
How do I assemble the Halo Centerlock Adaptor?
- With your wheel removed from your bike, place the splined carrier component onto the splines of a Centerlock hub with the 6 studs facing outwards.
- Place your 6-bolt disc rotor onto the studs of the carrier, ensuring the writing on the rotor is facing outwards.
- Place the spacer over the rotor and onto the studs.
- Screw the lockring into the threads of the Centerlock hub and tighten to a torque of 40Nm (350in.lbs).
- Ensure there is no lateral movement of the disc rotor once the lockring has been tightened to the correct torque.
- Replace your wheel in your frame/fork and confirm that the disc brake rotor and calliper are still in optimal set-up.
If you are unsure of any of the procedures, take your bike to a qualified mechanic.
