Quick Overview

The Tamiya 15495 HG Carbon Reinforcing Plate Set provides a straightforward way to stiffen vulnerable areas on Mini 4WD cars. The 1.5mm carbon sheet reinforces bumpers and roller stays to resist bending better than standard FRP panels.

Material and Shape

The carbon texture gives a neat finish while serving a clear structural role. Its plain straight form is easy to position on different chassis, so you can adapt it quickly when experimenting with setups.

Compatibility Notes

The plate works with a wide range of chassis types, offering versatile mounting options for custom builds. By cutting down on deflection at speed, it helps maintain a predictable handling balance, and the printed Tamiya logo offers a clean OEM touch.

What is the stated thickness of the carbon plate?

The plate measures 1.5mm in thickness, chosen to add strength without excessive weight penalty for Mini 4WD racing.

Can I trim the plate to fit non standard parts?

Yes, carbon can be trimmed carefully with the right cutting tools. Take care to finish edges to avoid fraying and use proper safety gear when cutting.

Is this plate suitable for high speed tracks?

Its extra rigidity helps reduce flex at high speed, which can improve line holding on fast sections of the circuit compared with FRP alternatives.

Does the product include mounting screws?

The set comes with the mounting screws needed for typical installations, though specific builds with spacers may need different hardware.
