This Shimano cable fixing bolt and plate set replaces the hardware that secures the shift cable at the rear derailleur. Made specifically for the RD-M8100, Shimano's Deore XT 12-speed rear derailleur, it restores proper cable clamping when the original bolt or plate has worn, stripped, or gone missing from a drivetrain overhaul.
Keeping this small assembly in good condition matters more than its size suggests, since a worn plate or bolt can allow the cable to slip and throw off shifting accuracy across the cassette. Mechanics servicing a Deore XT 12-speed setup will find this a straightforward way to renew the connection point without replacing the whole derailleur.
