Protective Aluminium Guard for Your Motor

The Tamiya 54817 Aluminum Motor Guard is engineered to keep dust and track debris away from the motor internals. Made from aluminium, the component improves heat transfer so the motor maintains stable temperatures during prolonged use.

Compatibility and Installation Notes

This guard is made to fit Tamiya GF-01, G6-01 and WR-02 chassis mounting points. Installation is straightforward with the included two 3x28mm cap screws and a hex wrench. Make sure your motor position matches the standard layout before fitting.

Why Aluminium Works Well Here

Aluminium delivers a strong but lightweight barrier that will not unduly add weight to your model. It also helps conduct heat away from the motor housing, giving a balance of protection and thermal benefit for hobby use.

The guard is tailored to standard GF-01, G6-01 and WR-02 mounts. For custom motor mounts you may need to adapt the fixing points or use alternative screws.
Yes, it provides a good barrier against stones and dirt during off road running, though you should inspect mounting hardware regularly after heavy use.
The aluminium guard is lightweight so any change to balance is minimal. If you run a very tuned setup, check weight distribution after fitting.
