Thru Axle M6 Connector offers secure mounting for racks and trailers with versatile fit
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"The Thru Axle M6 Connector is my go-to for securely mounting racks and trailers. It’s easy to install and adjust with the included spacers, and I love that it’s compatible with SRAM UDH/Transmission. The high-quality aluminum construction gives me confidence that it’ll hold up on any adventure."
When we’re loading up for a long-distance bikepacking trip or towing gear through rugged terrain, the Ortlieb Thru Axle M6 Connector gives us the reliable, secure connection we need. Crafted from high-quality aluminum with integrated M6 threads, this adapter thru axle ensures durable and versatile performance.
Designed to replace axles up to 180mm in length, it easily adjusts to fit axle lengths between 165mm (tapered) and 168mm to 180mm with the included spacers. The connector is also compatible with shorter axle lengths as long as the axle can be screwed through the frame. Plus, with compatibility across three thread pitches and full support for SRAM UDH/Transmission systems, this thru axle keeps our setup secure and ready for any demanding adventure.
