Small Spacers for Precise Alignment

The Arrowmax AM-13SS0005 kit includes ten 5x10x0.3mm shims, perfect for detailed setup work. These thin spacers let modellers correct minute gaps and keep components running true.

Useful Across Multiple Systems

These shims adapt to many spots on an RC car: they help set gear mesh, reduce play in link brackets, and centre drivetrain elements. Their exact thickness supports repeatable adjustments after maintenance.

Designed to Retain Thickness

Manufactured to maintain form under typical hobby stresses, these shims resist flattening and preserve the spacing you set for consistent handling characteristics.

What problems do these shims solve?

They address small misalignments, tighten up loose linkages, and allow precise pinion to spur spacing for smoother gear operation.

How many should I carry in the pit box?

A few packs are inexpensive and useful; carrying spare shims makes quick trackside adjustments simple and prevents lengthy rebuilds between sessions.

Will these shims affect drivetrain efficiency?

Used to achieve correct gear mesh, they can improve drivetrain smoothness. Avoid over-tightening gears when adding shims to prevent unnecessary drag.

Any tips for fitting shims accurately?

Remove the part to be adjusted, trial-fit shims incrementally, check movement free play, and reassemble securely once the desired clearance is achieved.
