julz m Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 does any one know if they make binding screws that are made for an allen key not a philips head screwdriver? i swap around my bindings pretty frequently and I am afraid i wont be able to remove my screws sometime.

zaldon Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 all you have to do is go to your local hardware store with 1 screw find a bolt that it fits into then find a screw that size in the desired style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like the idea of using allen heads, I think a better investment is the right size screwdriver. Philips #2 should never strip them if you are doing it right. Now that I only have one pair of bindings that isn't broken I swap them back and forth between two boards depending on if I'm riding park or free riding and I've never had a problem with stripped screws. More likely you will dimple the bottom of the board if you are over tightening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
