It later ran a deck program with a team that included Chad Muska and Peter Smolik, before stepping back from decks in 2006 to focus on hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday Shorty's is best known for its deck bolts and bushings. Its bolts are half threaded to resist bending and snapping, and they use a smaller countersinking head that puts less stress on your deck. It is simple hardware done properly, which is why so many shops and skaters keep a set in the bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat length bolts do I need?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nFor a standard deck with no risers, 7\/8\" or 1\" is right. Add 1\/8\" risers and go to 1.25\". Bigger risers or thick decks need 1.5\" or longer. You want the bolt to come through the nut fully without sticking out far past it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAllen or Phillips bolts?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAllen bolts use a hex key, which grips better and is less likely to strip, and most skate tools have one built in. Phillips bolts use a screwdriver, which is easy to find anywhere. This set is Allen, and the key is included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many bolts are in a pack?
