Description

The Foil Drive Titanium M8 Mast Plate Bolts 80mm are a premium hardware upgrade for riders using the Foil Drive Assist MAX. They are designed to secure the mast plate through the Foil Drive unit and into your board’s foil tracks, giving you a strong, corrosion-resistant fixing point for regular saltwater use.

This is a small component, but it matters. Foil Drive systems are removed, refitted, rinsed, transported and used in demanding environments, so good hardware helps keep your setup cleaner, more reliable and easier to live with over time.

Who are they for?

Choose these bolts if you run a Foil Drive Assist MAX setup and need replacement or upgraded M8 mast plate bolts in the 80mm length. They are ideal for riders who want a more premium fastening solution than standard stainless hardware, especially if their kit sees regular saltwater use.

If you are unsure whether your setup uses M8 or M6 hardware, check your existing bolts before ordering. For replacement track nuts, see the Foil Drive M8 Locking T Nuts.

Why choose this product?

  • Premium titanium upgrade for Foil Drive Assist MAX mast plate mounting.
  • Excellent corrosion resistance for saltwater and regular foiling use.
  • M8 x 80mm sizing for compatible Assist MAX setups.
  • Torx countersunk head for a clean, secure fit.
  • Unthreaded section helps reduce scratching to the mast or Foil Drive system.
  • Useful spare hardware to keep in your Foil Drive kit bag.

FAQs

Are these bolts for the Foil Drive Assist MAX?

Yes. These are the 80mm M8 titanium mast plate bolts for compatible Foil Drive Assist MAX setups.

Do these bolts include T nuts?

No. This listing includes 4 x M8 x 80mm titanium bolts. If you need replacement track nuts as well, pair them with the Foil Drive M8 Locking T Nuts.

Why upgrade to titanium bolts?

For most riders, the main reason is long-term durability and corrosion resistance rather than weight saving. Titanium hardware is a good upgrade for saltwater foiling, especially if you regularly remove and refit your Foil Drive system.

Will these fit the Assist Slim?

These are listed for the Foil Drive Assist MAX. If you run an Assist Slim system, choose the correct Slim-specific mast plate bolts rather than assuming the MAX hardware will fit.

Should I still rinse and check titanium hardware?

Yes. Titanium offers excellent corrosion resistance, but it is still good practice to rinse your setup after saltwater use, check bolt condition regularly and make sure all hardware is correctly tightened before riding.

Specifications

  • Features

    Titanium alloy construction: Titanium is used where corrosion resistance and long-term reliability matter. For foil assist riders, that means better peace of mind when hardware is regularly exposed to water, salt and repeated assembly.

    80mm Assist MAX sizing: The longer 80mm length is designed for the Assist MAX mast plate setup, where the bolt needs to pass through the Foil Drive unit and secure into the board’s mast tracks.

    Torx countersunk head: The countersunk head helps the bolt sit neatly in the mounting area, while the Torx fitting gives a more positive tool engagement than a basic hex head when installed correctly.

    Unthreaded section: The smoother unthreaded section helps reduce unnecessary scratching against the mast or system, which is particularly useful for riders who regularly fit and remove their Foil Drive setup.
