Reinforce Your Tamiya Drivetrain

The Tamiya 53079 Manta Ray Stainless Steel Propeller Shaft Set supplies a tougher replacement for worn plastic or brass shafts on TA01 and TA02 chassis. Built from stainless steel to resist corrosion and fatigue, the set helps extend service life on older machines.

Works with Originals and Later Releases

These shafts are compatible with many Tamiya kits, covering classic models and later reissues such as Top Force and Manta Ray. That makes the set useful whether you are restoring a vintage model or keeping a running rig reliable.

Can I install these in a restored Manta Ray?

Yes, they are intended to suit restoration projects and should fit the listed Manta Ray releases without extensive modification.

Do I need different bearings to use them?

Most builds will accept a direct swap, but inspect bearing fit and replace worn bearings to ensure smooth operation with the new shafts.

Are these corrosion resistant?

Stainless steel offers good resistance to rust, though regular cleaning and light lubrication will keep the shafts in best condition.

Will they change handling characteristics?

You may notice slightly firmer drivetrain feel due to reduced flex, but handling will largely depend on other suspension and tyre setup choices.
