Overview for Builders

The Tamiya 15506 Lightweight Plastic Spacer Set is built to make setup work more flexible for Mini 4WD hobbyists. Constructed from light plastic, the spacers help lower component mass versus metal alternatives while keeping practical durability for track use.

Size Selection and Fit

This pack includes twenty spacers across five thicknesses: 1.5mm, 3mm, 6mm, 6.7mm and 12mm, enabling fine control over roller placement and chassis spacing. The material has low friction where it may touch guide rails or walls, reducing slowdowns from contact.

Practical Racing Advantages

Precise spacer choices let you refine handling and straightline speed by tuning roller heights and chassis geometry. The Tamiya 15506 set is useful for trial and error adjustments during practice runs and race prep.

How difficult is it to swap these spacers during a race meet?

Swapping spacers is straightforward with basic tools. Keep a small selection of commonly used sizes on hand for quick changes between heats.

Are these spacers suitable for high contact circuits?

The plastic is designed to slide with low friction, so it performs well where occasional wall contact happens, helping keep speed loss to a minimum.

Can I mix sizes for asymmetric setups?

Yes, mixing different thicknesses on left and right rollers is a common tuning method to correct cornering balance or compensate for chassis bend.

How do I maintain these spacers?

Keep them clean of grit and check for wear after heavy use. Light cleaning with a soft brush and mild detergent will preserve their low friction surface.
