Keep Your Retro Tamiya Running Strong

The Tamiya 9803246 4x12.5mm brass pipe supplies a compact, accurate sleeve that supports Thunder Shot, Dragon, Terra Scorcher and Fire Dragon buggies. It helps preserve chassis geometry and smooth operation on older Tamiya machines prized by hobbyists.

Where It Fits

This brass sleeve is made to suit the classic Tamiya buggy family and its 4x12.5mm dimensions mean it will fit typical mount points without modification. Ideal for owners restoring or maintaining a varied model collection.

Why Use Brass Here

Brass gives a balance of toughness and corrosion resistance that is useful for parts that see repeated use. It holds up well in normal conditions and reduces the chance of premature replacement for restored buggies.

It fits standard 4x12.5mm locations, so modified cars that keep original spacing will accept it. If you have custom machining or adapters, double check the internal and external clearances first.
Use a soft brush and mild solvent to remove dirt, then dry thoroughly. A light oil or corrosion inhibitor will help prevent tarnish if you store buggies for long periods.
Machining is possible but requires care to keep dimensions accurate. Soldering can affect fit and surface finish, so it is better to use mechanical fixes unless you have experience with small brass components.
