Are you setting up a new machine, moving to a new home, or replacing rusted fasteners on your flagship treadmill?
The 2023–Current Sole F85 (featuring the new Z-frame design and the 15.6" touchscreen) is a masterpiece of home engineering. Because this model supports a massive 400 lb user capacity and a 4.0 CHP motor, the structural integrity of the frame is paramount. This Genuine OEM Hardware Kit includes the specialized high-tensile bolts and vibration-damping washers required to secure the console masts and Z-frame stabilizers. Using "hardware store" substitutes can lead to frame swaying or "creaking" during high-speed runs.
This kit is specifically curated for the modern F85 frame redesign, which uses a different bolt-pattern than the older 2013–2019 "straight-mast" models.
Grade 8 High-Tensile Steel: Every bolt is heat-treated to handle the lateral torque generated by the F85’s 12 MPH top speed and power-incline shifts.
Anti-Vibration Nylon Washers: Includes the specific "dished" washers that sit between the console mast and the base. These are critical for preventing the "harmonic rattle" that can travel up to the 15.6" touchscreen.
Pre-Applied Thread Locker: Most bolts in this kit come with a factory-applied blue patch to prevent the hardware from backing out over time due to the treadmill's natural vibration.
Black Oxide Aesthetic: All exposed bolt heads feature the matching black finish to blend seamlessly with the F85’s premium "Dark Shadow" frame styling.
The F85 is a heavy machine (nearly 300 lbs out of the box). When using this hardware kit:
Hand-Start Everything: To avoid cross-threading the internal frame nuts, always start every bolt by hand for at least 3 full rotations before using the provided tools.
The "Two-Stage" Tighten: Tighten all bolts to 70% during assembly. Once the machine is fully standing, go back and torque them down to 100% to ensure the frame is perfectly squared.
No Lubricant Included: As mentioned previously, this kit contains strictly mechanical hardware. You will still need your Spirit/Sole-specific lubricant for the deck maintenance.
Build it right. Run with confidence.
