Sapim Internal Alloy Nipple - Silver
Article number: | Spokes |
Availability: | Out of stock |
Perfect for builds that require internal nipples, Sapim's Internal Alloy Nipples look similar to standard nipples but posses some key differences. The first and most noticeable difference is the lack of a slot on the back side, this keeps the nipple from digging into the rim when being tensioned. The threading has also been moved up the nipple to allow quicker thread pickup during initial assembly. The rounded shoulder allows these nipples to distribute forces more evenly inside the rim and keeps point loading to a minimum. The standard 0.127" square wrench flats allow the use of the standard internal spoke wrench, one of our favorites is the Park Tools SW15 for its ease of use and versatility when building internally spokes wheels.
At this time these nipples are only available in 2.0mm, 14g sizing.
