Fasteners matter in frenzy—this long shroud bolt (SKU 212-1372), a Ducar OEM for 212/224cc clones, anchors covers firmly against track jolts. Its extended length reaches deep mounts, promoting even torque to sustain airflow paths uninterrupted.

Loose shrouds disrupt cooling, risking hot spots; this bolt's threading bites sure, keeping tins in place for optimal breeze over fins. Kart pit crews stock them for swift fixes, organizing tool rolls around essentials that keep engines chill and charged. One bolt, endless laps.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why is it important to use the correct length shroud bolt on my 212/224cc engine?

A: Using the correct extended shroud bolt ensures that your engine tins are held securely against the cylinder block. If the bolt is too short or loose, the shroud can vibrate, leading to potential cooling issues or damage to the engine fins.

Q: Can I use this bolt on other clone engines besides the 212/224cc models?

A: This bolt is specifically designed as a Ducar OEM part for 212/224cc clone engines. While it may fit other GX200-style clones, we recommend verifying your specific mounting depth to ensure proper thread engagement.

Q: How tight should I torque these shroud bolts?

A: These bolts are designed to hold lightweight sheet metal shrouds. They should be tightened until snug to prevent vibration, but avoid over-torquing, which can strip the threads in the aluminum cylinder block.

Q: Should I use thread locker on these bolts?

A: Because kart engines experience significant vibration, a small amount of blue (medium strength) thread locker is a common practice among pit crews to ensure the bolts do not back out during a race.
