There is no set number on the times you can use the same holes. It's more than several, but the screws gradually cut too many new threads and you can feel the screw start to strip when you do a normal amount of tightening torque. Using epoxy each time helps, but heat the screw to back out of the epoxy so it doesn't ream out the hole on the way out. Lou Tyler, sure.

Would it be possible to take them off then put them back on a few months from now? How many times can you screw back into the same holes? Thanks. Hey Lou,
I have mounted some Dynafit vertical st bindings to a pair of Black Diamond skis. Would it be possible to take them off then put them back on a few months from now?

How many times can you screw back into the same holes?

Thanks.

I've never tested at what point that would occur, but my theory has always been that a tiny amount of fudge factor is ok, any more and I'm playing around with things to get rid of it.

And they were a steal at STP. I wonder whether some Dynafit release problems are due to misalignment like in my photo. If I had taken my skis to a shop for mounting instead of doing it myself, I doubt the shop would have factored in the boot imperfection. Indeed! And they were a steal at STP.
