Scarpa Maestrale Ski Boot Buckles

Description

Scarpa Maestrale Ski Boot Buckles

Replacement buckles for first version of the Scarpa Maestrale ski touring boot. Please note that although the buckles pictured may look slightly different to the ones on your boots they should fit in exactly the same way with a screw attachment via the screw rivets provided. Please do not call us asking us to source the correct colour or style for your ski boots, Scarpa produce and supply a couple of variations but we only stock one style to simplify the process.

How to identify the correct buckle

If you count the buckle closest to the toe of the boot as the “Toe Buckle” the next buckle up is the “Instep Buckle”, Next upwards is the “Ankle Buckle” and the last one is the “Cuff Buckle” Please note Scarpa Maestrale buckles are not “Handed” so you don’t need to order left or right. Also note we do not offer the ankle buckle as an option here as the boot needs the cuff removing from the shell to fit which is a difficult operation and requires specific workshop tools. We can provide a fitting service for these, please ring us for a quote.

Please Note: The buckle supplied may differ in colour and style to the one in the image.

What we supply

The pack includes one buckle and a screw rivet attachment kit which comprises of one or two metric screws and one or two metric captive retaining nuts for the inside of the boot.

How to fit the buckle

The rivets holding the buckle are made of steel so remove using a steel drill with a diameter of around about 6 to 8mm to gently drill off the heads of the rivets. You will need to take care the drill doesn’t slip and make a hole in the boot and beware that the drill can grab the plate of the buckle and spin it so keep your fingers out of the way! Then push out the rest of the rivet through the shell to make way for the retaining nut. You will need to make the existing holes in the boot larger using a 5mm drill so the captive nuts will push into the holes in the shell. Then simply offer the new buckle up to the shell and screw together.

Fitting Service

If you’re not confident using a drill we offer a fitting service for a reasonable sum and if required we can do the job within 48 hours. Please ring us for a quote.
