{"product_id":"union-toe-and-ankle-strap-tool-less-adjusters-blac","title":"Union Toe and Ankle Strap Tool-less Adjusters Black","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Union Toe and Ankle Strap Tool-less Adjusters Black kit replaces the \u003cstrong\u003elength-adjustment screws on compatible straps\u003c\/strong\u003e. It also lets you replace a conventional screw adjuster with the appropriate \u003cstrong\u003etool-less fitting\u003c\/strong\u003e. This is useful when a small adjuster has gone missing or when you want to change strap length without carrying a screwdriver to each adjustment. The kit works at the strap's adjustment point, separate from the ratchet that tightens around the boot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou receive \u003cstrong\u003etwo toe adjuster screws and two ankle adjuster screws\u003c\/strong\u003e. The different positions are identified for a reason: keep the toe and ankle components in their intended places rather than treating the pack as four identical loose screws. Preparing the parts beside the binding makes a small repair more straightforward. The mesh carrying bag keeps the unused pieces organised when the set travels with your normal spare hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe components use \u003cstrong\u003egrade 8.8 steel\u003c\/strong\u003e and provide a \u003cstrong\u003ehand-operated adjustment system\u003c\/strong\u003e. When correctly fitted, they allow the strap's length setting to be changed without a separate tool. That setting determines where the padded or structured part of the strap sits across the boot. The ratchet then supplies everyday tightening. Separating those two jobs helps when a strap sits off-centre: pulling the ratchet harder is not the same as correcting the strap length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnion lists \u003cstrong\u003eExoframe 2.0 through 5.0 ankle straps\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eForma Lab and Forma Elite ankle straps\u003c\/strong\u003e, plus its toe straps for this kit. Check the actual adjuster interface on your binding before fitting. A strap from another generation may have been installed during a previous repair, so its model can matter more than the name printed on the highback. Bring the old adjuster if you want us to compare the connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo set the length, place the \u003cstrong\u003eboot fully into the binding\u003c\/strong\u003e and centre the strap over the area it is designed to hold. Choose the appropriate adjustment position, engage the fitting correctly and secure it according to Union's instructions. Then test the \u003cstrong\u003eclosing and release range\u003c\/strong\u003e with the boot in place. Make sure the strap can tighten properly without the ratchet running out of useful ladder. Check the adjusters as part of your normal binding inspection, remove trapped grit and dry the parts after use. If the strap attachment itself is damaged, address that alongside the missing screw.
