Tune Your TT-01 with the Tamiya 53497 Bearing Kit

The Tamiya 53497 Ball Bearing Set brings smoother rotation to the TT-01 drivetrain. Built as sealed stainless units, these bearings cut noise and help components last longer under regular running conditions.

What the Stainless Bearings Deliver

Designed for the TT-01 layout, the Tamiya 53497 set helps reduce internal friction and gives steadier performance at higher rpm. The package includes 12 of the 1150 bearings for spur gear shafts and 4 of the 1280 bearings for the diff. Stainless steel ensures good wear resistance in everyday use.

Installation Tips for Hobbyists

Replacing old bearings on the TT-01 is a routine job if you follow the chassis instructions. Proper installation improves top speed potential and lowers heat generation in the gearbox, making maintenance intervals longer and simpler.

Fantastic service and delivered promptly to Australia in just over a week. Thank you and look forward to buying more!!!
For most modellers it is a straightforward replacement. You will need basic tools such as a bearing puller or appropriate drivers and to follow the TT-01 manual for correct placement.
Being stainless and sealed gives them better resistance to moisture and grit than standard bearings, but avoid deep water and clean after muddy sessions to maintain longevity.
Bearing upgrades change rotational smoothness rather than gear ratios. After fitting, check gear mesh and endplay since reduced friction can expose minor alignment issues.
