Performance Notes on Titanium Fasteners

Titanium gives a strong but lightweight alternative to steel, helping to reduce rotating and unsprung mass where possible. This can make the car feel livelier and easier to dial in at racing venues.

Will lighter screws improve lap times?

Lighter screws contribute small but cumulative gains. Combined with setup improvements, they can help shave tenths of a second per lap depending on the track and car setup.

Are these screws compatible with alloy parts?

Titanium fasteners are suitable with alloy components, but avoid excessive torque into softer materials. Use proper torque settings to prevent thread damage.

Should I mix titanium and steel screws?

Mixing is common to save cost while upgrading key locations. Prioritise where weight matters most, such as body mounts and non-structural locations if budget is limited.
