【KITACO】Well Nut Review

Genuine Kitaco Well Nuts C550 M5 x P0.8 for spares

I wanted to get soem new well nuts in this size as I did not have any spares in the garage. I have not tried the Kitaco ones and at this price is was a no brainer. The price was really good and cheaper than some on the other brands I could get. I decided to get the Kitaco ones as I have had a few other parts from this brand and I am honestly, very impressed with how well they are made. With a couple of other items in my order, I had them all shipped using EMS and the package arrived in 5 days. Everything was well protected from any damage. The well nuts came in the Kitaco box packet and were well presented. They are a really neat part that everyone should have some spares as you just never know when you will need them. These were the M5 size and this is usually the size that fits with a lot of panelling on a lot of different models. They also fit a lot of factory screens too. The quality of these is not really easy to work out untli you actually use them. I did have a screen that needed a new well nut fitting so I used one of these. Definitely recommend them as they just work how thay should. None of the spinning of the thread and worked exceptionally. Very happy with these. View detail

At the time of Screen replacement

I purchased this product because the well nut was Crack cracked due to deterioration when replacing the Screen.
Compatible with M5 well nut for all Kawasaki vehicles, and is a recommendation because it is more affordable than OEM products. View detail

Replacement of aged well nut

The well nut used to hold the screen in place had deteriorated over time and had become chica-chica, so we replaced it. I am not sure if the old well nut was OEM or external, or how long it had been in use, but it seemed to have been in use for quite some time, and had hardened, leaving it in a tightened shape that made me think it might have been over-tightened.
In this case, we chose KITACO's product, which is less expensive than OEM's. The number of KITACO's product was 5 pieces, whereas we needed 6 pieces, so we used 2Quantity:I purchased a set. I think the number of units needed depends on the type of car and the location where it is used, but I don't think that 5 units are needed very often. Well, it is still cheaper than buying 6 OEM ones.
There is nothing particularly difficult about the installation, but removing the hardened old well nut was a large challenge, and we had to be careful not to damage the cowl by using radio pliers and picks. Once the old ones were removed, all that was left was to put the new well nuts through the cowl holes.
I installed it, and there is no particular problem, but in the review of other people who used this product on daeg, the size was Exactly to the Cowl depression, but on zrx1100, the diameter of the Well nut umbrella was a little small in relation to the Cowl depression.
As a matter of course, the new Well Nut will protect the Screen from vibration because the Rubber is newer and therefore more flexible. View detail

Stops firmly.

If they spread out a little, they will stop well.
It is not a place where force is applied, so be careful not to overtighten. View detail
