Lightweight Titanium Hardware for Your TRF416

Club racers and hobbyists looking to refine a Tamiya TRF416 will find the Tamiya 49488 Titanium Screw Set a practical upgrade. Built from titanium to reduce weight and resist corrosion, this set keeps critical joints secure while trimming mass. The precision-made screws match expected tolerances and are easy to fit during routine maintenance or a performance refresh.

Why Fit Titanium Screws to Your RC

Titanium is valued in RC builds for its strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. Compared with standard steel components, titanium fasteners cut down overall weight and can contribute to sharper handling. That makes them a good choice where small mass reductions translate to better on-track behaviour.

Compatibility with TRF416 Assemblies

The kit is intended for the TRF416 chassis so lengths and thread profiles suit the original layout. Use the set to replace worn screws or to standardise fasteners during a rebuild. Manufacturing tolerances are tight, ensuring a clean fit without modification.

Can I mix titanium screws with existing steel hardware?

Yes, mixing is common to save weight where it counts. Keep steel where extra stiffness or lower cost is preferred and swap titanium into non-structural or torque-sensitive spots for best effect.

Do titanium screws change how I should torque parts?

Slightly more care is needed to avoid over-torquing. Use recommended torque settings for aluminium or titanium fasteners and consider thread locker where appropriate for vibration-prone joints.

Are these screws a long term solution for track use?

Yes, titanium resists corrosion and maintains integrity under normal racing conditions. Inspect threads after heavy impacts and replace any that show deformation.
