NAVI Titanium presents the 3/8 titanium bolt, an inch-series unit with a nominal thread diameter of 0.375 inch (≈9.525 mm), roughly equivalent to an M10 metric size. It is available in 3/8-16 UNC (coarse) and 3/8-24 UNF (fine) threads, machined mainly from aerospace-grade Grade 5 alloy (Ti-6Al-4V), with Grade 2 commercially pure metal as an alternative. This unit matches steel in strength while weighing about 60% of steel, resisting salt spray, seawater and chemical attack, being non-magnetic and fatigue-resistant. We deliver lighter components, longer service life and supply - advantages that lower maintenance cost and boost value.

Application
Our hardware is engineered for critical builds where light weight and lasting reliability matter most. Its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance and fatigue life make it the piece of choice in demanding performance-driven industries. Two fields lead global demand: high-end bicycles and motorsport, where every gram and every gram of reliability directly affect speed, handling and safety.
High-end Bicycles
Competitive road bikes, mountain bikes (XC and Enduro) and gravel bikes push every component toward the absolute lightest limit. Replacing steel fasteners one by one with NAVI Titanium 3/8 titanium bolts on frames, cockpits, seat posts, wheelsets and brakes shaves noticeable grams from a single fastener while adding the corrosion resistance that cycling demands. Titanium's natural oxide film resists sweat, rain, road salt and humidity far better than steel, so hardware stays clean and rust-free through years of aggressive all-season riding. Weight reduction is not only about sheer speed; lower rotating and unsprung mass improves climbing, acceleration and comfort. Our pieces also deliver a premium anodized color finish in blue, gold, purple and more, turning mechanical joints into a visual signature on high-end builds. Combined with precise threads and fatigue resistance, our parts give frame builders and enthusiasts a lightweight, durable and beautiful upgrade that protects their investment in performance.
Motorsport & High-Performance Automotive
From Formula 1, MotoGP and GT3 machines down to high-end road-going upgrades, every single gram counts in motorsport. Our 3/8 pieces replace steel parts on engines, chassis, brakes and frames, cutting weight and reducing unsprung mass that directly governs grip, handling and lap times. Titanium's high strength-to-weight ratio holds critical loads under extreme vibration, heat and repeated fatigue without premature failure, giving engineers total confidence in crash zones and safety-critical joints. Because titanium is naturally corrosion-resistant and non-magnetic, it also resists the harsh environment of racing, from brake dust and fluids to salt and moisture. Beyond performance, our parts bring a distinctive anodized finish and a complete single-source package of matched pieces, so racers and tuners can dress a full vehicle consistently. With precise computer-controlled machining, tight thread tolerance and anti-seize support, our parts perform reliably lap after lap while elevating the look of any competition build.

FAQ
I use metric hardware in my market - is a 3/8-inch piece compatible?
+
-
3/8 is an inch-series size (≈ M10). Check the mating thread: 3/8-16 UNC is coarse, 3/8-24 UNF is fine. We can confirm the correct thread, pitch and length for your application, or supply the equivalent metric piece if your assembly uses ISO threads.
How should I maintain titanium hardware?
+
-
Titanium is highly corrosion-resistant, so routine care is simple: wipe off moisture, brake dust and chemicals after use. Avoid galvanic contact with dissimilar metals where possible, and re-apply anti-seize on disassembled threads to keep future installation smooth.
How long will titanium hardware last?
+
-
Under normal service, titanium parts typically outlast steel thanks to excellent fatigue life and corrosion resistance. Service life depends on load, environment and correct clamping force; following our recommended values and anti-seize guidance maximizes durability.
Can I replace steel hardware directly with titanium?
+
-
Yes in most cases, since Gr5 offers comparable strength at 60% of the weight. Always verify thread size and load rating first, and use the correct clamping force - titanium differs from steel in clamping behavior, so refer to our guidance before final assembly.
How do I verify the quality and grade of your hardware?
+
-
Every batch is checked for material and dimensions under our ISO 9001 system. Request the Certificate of Analysis (COA) for grade verification, and review our inspection reports - provided for reference - before ordering.
