Hi - anyone recommend a M6 upright / split bolt solution for Foil drive please, to use with F-one foils / masts?

FD sell M7 and M8 - no M6. I think Konrad and Custom Wingscrews have options....but not available in UK let along Europe and shipping is prohibitive.

The Titanium M7 split bolts are so close to fitting the F1 hole is 6.5mm just run a 7mm drill through it easy peasy. I've done it to both my Carbon and Alloy mast . Before that I used 90mm M6 Hex head bolts with a nylon washer it worked fine but just didn't trust it. The M7 Titanium are so much stronger .

Thanks Piros

I have ordered some round Standoff male female bits to try and create my own split bolt but drill might be the next/ easiest option as you suggested
