M2.5 Headshell Mounting Kit, 50 Pcs Stainless Steel Bolts and Nuts, with Case

The M2.5 Headshell Mounting Kit is a comprehensive, 50-piece stainless steel hardware set designed to fit a wide range of phono cartridges into headshells with M2.5 threading. Supplied in a sturdy case, this kit covers multiple bolt lengths and fasteners to ensure precise mounting for both shallow and deep body cartridge designs, including compatibility with Thorens headshells.

Crafted from high-strength stainless steel, it resists corrosion and provides reliable, repeatable tightening without the concerns associated with aluminium screws. The kit includes nuts, washers, and Allen keys sized for both M2 and M2.5 cartridges, plus extra-long bolts for deeper-bodied cartridges. The stainless components are magnetizable, aiding quick organization during setup and maintenance.

For best results, ensure the cartridge is correctly fitted to the headshell and choose the shortest bolt that will accommodate your cartridge/headshell combination. The socket heads facilitate easy tightening with the supplied Allen keys, helping you avoid over-tightening or misalignment. Always verify the Vertical Tracking Force (VTF) as recommended by your cartridge manufacturer for optimal playback.
