Lightweight Fixings for Your TRF Chassis

The Tamiya 54420 titanium screw set fits TRF201, TRF511, TRF502 and XV-01 chassis and replaces heavier steel screws where 2.6x5mm fasteners are used. These titanium pieces offer reduced weight with strong clamping performance, suited to suspension shafts and small mount points.

Why Titanium Outperforms Steel

Titanium combines strength and low density, trimming grams without making components fragile. Swapping steel for titanium helps the car turn in quicker and feel more responsive under braking and acceleration.

Where to Fit These Screws

Use the Tamiya 54420 screws in locations that call for 2.6x5mm fixings, especially on suspension arms and linkages where reducing rotating or unsprung weight makes a measurable difference.

Will these change my car balance?

They remove a small amount of weight at each location, which can slightly shift balance. Place them where weight reduction helps steering and responsiveness rather than stability.

Should I use threadlocker with titanium screws?

Light use of medium strength threadlocker is fine for non-structural joints. For repeated service points use removable threadlocker or check torque frequently.

Are these screws compatible with aluminium parts?

Yes, titanium is compatible with aluminium and reduces risk of galvanic issues compared to some steels, but always check fit and thread engagement before final assembly.

How do I avoid stripping the heads?

Use the correct driver size, keep the bit perpendicular, and apply steady torque. Titanium is tough but small heads can be damaged by wrong tools.
