Binding Freedom Ski Binding Threaded Insert - 18 In a Pack

Season:Current

Brand:Binding Freedom

Code:BF-IN50-18

Threaded ski inserts for bindings such as these Binding Freedom stainless steel inserts allow you to remove and swap bindings on your skis, offering you more versatility with your quiver of skis.

Now you can have one ski, and mount ski touring bindings one day, and alpine downhill bindings the next.

Additionally, you can now take multiple sets of skis and have one set of bindings, so whether its a deep powder day, or a hard-packed piste day, you will have YOUR favourite ski for those conditions with you and can swap in minutes.

And further, if you just want the option of being able to store skis flat, or transport multiple sets in a smaller soft case or hard case, then now you can remove your bindings and carry these in your backpack or hold luggage, and optimise your ski carriage weight allowance.

This is a pack of 18 inserts, which is ideal for many ski touring bindings where 4 inserts will be required for each binding toe and heel and one insert for the centre mounting screw. We also sell these inserts as singles, and in packs of 16 for most alpine bindings.

To install threaded ski binding inserts you will need the correct number of inserts (we sell these as singles as some bindings need more or less than the standard 16 per set of skis), the correct matching threaded screws, some thread compound to secure the screws (We use Vibratite VC3 which can be re-used) and if fitting yourself an installation tool kit.

Why are we using Binding Freedom inserts?

We have been installing and using threaded inserts ourselves for 8+ years and previously worked for one of the largest fitters of the popular Quiver Killer threaded inserts in the UK. The advantage we feel with the Binding Freedom insert is the mounting notch in the top of the insert. The trickiest moment of installing any threaded insert is actually removing the insert tool leaving the insert perfectly fitted and flush with the ski top sheet. With Binding Freedom, the notch allows us to use a simpler fitting tool similar to a flat screwdriver, for perfect results every time.

We can install ski binding inserts for you!

If you choose to have us install your Binding Freedom ski binding inserts for you, then you have the assurance that we have fitted many hundreds of these inserts. We use a laser guided pillar drill to ensure absolute precision drilling into your skis, and use the best Araldite brand epoxy resins to secure the mounts permanently in your skis. We are also adept at configuring hole patterns for multiple bindings, to ensure the bindings are mounted in the best position for performance, whilst protecting the integrity of your skis. We have in the past had customers requiring THREE binding options for one ski and achieved this safely, and have mounted binding inserts onto specialist split snowboards and mono boards.

If you have an alternative brand of binding inserts such as Quiver Killer and have decided not to try to mount these yourself, then we can also install Quiver Killer inserts for customers to our same exacting standards, with the reassurance of years of experience of doing so. 

 

Buyers Guide to Threaded Ski Binding Inserts
Binding Freedom Threaded Ski Inserts

The Skiers Lounge are a stockist and fitter of the Binding Freedom Threaded Ski Binding Insert System, which allows the fitting of a variety of bindings to one set of flat deck skis.

Once installed you can take your bindings on and off as much as you like. This is ideal for travelling as you no longer need to take a set of skis for touring and alpine skiing, you can now take one ski and both sets of bindings. This also reduces your transport costs.

The unique features of the system are:

- Stainless Steel items means no rusting

- Closed end system means a watertight seal preventing water penetration

- Coarse outer threads bites into your skis core - Fine inner thread with M5 thread secures your bindings

- Very small – minimal invasion of your ski core and low visibility too

- Slotted system. Unlike competitors the Binding Freedom insert features a slotted lip, so they can be perfectly aligned and installed with a flat head screwdriver or the pro install tool which Binding Freedom make.

- The composition of the steel is altered by rolling the threads, which creates micro-fissures. This means a stronger adhesion when installing the inserts to the skis

Fitting options

For the Binding Freedom threaded insert system, we offer two options, you can either buy the various parts to install the system yourself, or we offer a fitting service in our dedicated winter sports workshop. So if you are not confident about drilling your own skis, let us take care of this for you, to ensure a safe and secure interface.

We can also assist in calculating the hole placements for a mixture of bindings, whilst ensuring you are still in the optimum position on the ski.

For our Binding Freedom section to buy your inserts and screws online please click here.

For workshop fitting, pricing is as follows:

  1. Installation onto one pair of undrilled skis - £40.00
  2. Installation onto one pair of pre-drilled skis - £30.00

The above price is exclusive of inserts and screws which can be found here.

We can mount multiple inserts for you to swap your bindings easily, or just one set to allow ease of removal when travelling with your skis.
