Description

4-Piece Ducati Head Timing Tool Set, M5 x 0.8 Locating Pins

Brief Overview

This is a dedicated 4-piece timing pin set designed specifically for Ducati motorcycle engine head alignment and camshaft/crankshaft locking during maintenance and assembly work. Each pin features a knurled grip body with a precision M5 x 0.8 threaded locating shaft for secure positioning in Ducati engine ports. The redundancy of four identical pins ensures you have spares on hand and can maintain workflow efficiency in your shop. If you work across multiple European motorcycle and automotive platforms, you may also want to consider diesel and petrol engine timing solutions or alternative M6 Ducati timing tools for expanded coverage.

Key Features

  • M5 x 0.8 Threaded Locating Shaft: Precision thread matches Ducati engine head timing ports exactly
  • Knurled Grip Body: Diamond-pattern knurl provides secure, slip-resistant handling during installation and removal
  • Matte Black Finish: Durable powder-coated surface resists corrosion and wear in workshop environments
  • Flat Base Design: Stable positioning when laid on workbenches; prevents rolling
  • Set of Four: Eliminates downtime waiting for tools to cool or be retrieved from other jobs
  • Compact and Portable: Lightweight, space-efficient storage and transport between job sites

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • High Demand in Ducati Service: These pins are consumables in the sense that shops must have them in-stock for every Ducati service cycle; they don't wear out but are frequently needed
  • Impulse Add-On: Mechanics ordering Ducati-specific parts will automatically add this set to their cart when available
  • Competitive Margin: Dedicated OEM-equivalent tools typically command better margins than generic alternatives
  • Bulk Purchase Incentive: Shops maintaining multiple service bays will order multiple sets to avoid tool sharing delays
  • Repeat Business: Every Ducati timing service requires these pins; consistent reorder base

Why This Set Matters

Timing alignment on Ducati engines requires precise positioning of the locating pins in the head ports. Using the wrong thread size or non-standard pins risks engine damage, stripped threads, or assembly errors. This 4-piece set eliminates guesswork and ensures every technician in your shop has access to the correct tool, reducing callbacks and warranty claims.

The knurled design prevents hand slippage during high-precision positioning work, and the flat base keeps tools organized and visible on the workbench. For shops with multiple Ducati service stations, having four identical pins means you're never waiting for a single tool to be returned or cleaned.
