Installation
Each banjo bolt requires two copper crush washers - one on either side of the banjo fitting - to create a secure, leak-free hydraulic seal. For motorcycle racing and motorsport use, we strongly recommend securing the bolt with 0.8mm stainless lockwire through the pre-drilled head to comply with safety regulations.
