Shim Solutions for Accurate Setup

Arrowmax AM-020051 aluminium shims are thin 3x6x0.5 spacers intended for precise alignment in RC models. They help you fine-tune drivetrain contact and suspension spacing with minimal impact on weight.

Typical Uses

These shims suit gear mesh correction, axle clearance and small spacing tasks where predictable thickness is required. The bright orange finish makes them easy to spot during assembly and service.

Lightweight Strength

Made from corrosion-resistant aluminium, the shims balance durability with low mass so handling and performance remain consistent after setup changes.

How should I fit these between gear sets?

Fit one shim at a time, check mesh by rotating the gear and listening for smooth engagement, then add or remove shims until you get a consistent contact pattern.

Are they suitable for both electric and nitro models?

Yes, the shims are material-agnostic and can be used in electric and nitro setups where that size spacer is needed. Check fitment with your specific parts.

Will these shims wear quickly under load?

Aluminium is durable for spacing duties but inspect periodically for wear, especially near high-load contact points, and replace if burrs appear.

Can I reuse shims after removal?

Reuse is fine if the shim is undamaged and edges remain smooth. Discard any that show deformation or nicks that could affect alignment.

Is the orange finish purely cosmetic?

The orange coating mainly aids visibility and part identification; it does not significantly change the shim thickness or mechanical properties.
