Ski Snowboard Binding Repair

BINDING TOOLS binding
Most skiers and snowboarders buy their equipment with bindings already mounted...this is good because it helps ensure safe binding installation. But bindings sometimes work loose or binding screws get ripped out. We offer a variety of goods to put `em back in their rightful place, as well as cant strips and other products to keep you riding balanced and in control.

plugs

PLASTIC HOLE PLUGS
If you mount new bindings on old skis, use these plastic hole plugs to fill old binding screw holes you won't be reusing...it will help keep out water that can otherwise freeze, expand and possibly create rust and other structural damage. Just squirt in a dab of binding or similar waterproof glue, and tap one of these plugs in the empty hole. Trim off any protruding plug material with a chisel, and you're done. Available in black or white, and sold in bags of 20 plugs.

plugs WOOD HOLE PLUGS
When a binding screw pulls clear out of a ski, the hole is stripped and needs repair. One of the cheapest and simplest solutions is to fill it with fast-setting epoxy and tap one of these wooden plugs in as far as is comfortable. Let it sit for 15 minutes or longer, then trim or chisel off any excess plug material that protrudes above the topskin. Now you can redrill the hole with a 3.6mm bit and reinstall the binding screw.

grubsPLASTIC SCREW HOLE INSERTS
If you encounter a stripped-out ski binding screw hole, you have several repair options. You can mix up some epoxy and steel wool, and put it in the hole as you reinstall the screw...or you can redrill the hole with a 3.6mm drill bit, hammer in a wood plug (sold above), then redrill and reinstall the screw. If neither of these approaches work, then try these plastic inserts. You first drill out the screw hole using a 5/16" drill bit, then tap in one of these inserts before reinstalling the screw. Cheap, fast and easy. They don't have the holding power of helicoils (sold below), but are usually more than adequate if you only have one or two stripped screw holes per ski. These inserts are sold individually.

Some skis are made with a metal sheet inside, or have a hard insert in the core so that you need to tap screw holes before mounting bindings.

Tap handles let you get a good grip on the tap and help insure that you thread it in straight.

CANT STRIPS
We offer plastic cant strips for your boot/ski alignment needs. Each cant strip is 2.25" (58mm) wide and 19.5" (50cm) long...sufficient for one binding plate (or toe and heelpiece). Always trim and drill the cant strip to match your plate or binding patterns, and make sure your binding screws are long enough to accommodate the extra cant thickness (especially on cants greater than 2 degrees). If not, check at your local ski shop for longer screws. Each degree of cant creates about 1.5mm of lift.
