Setup Precision with Factory Pro FP-A-SS0710

The Factory Pro FP-A-SS0710 shim set supplies thirty 7x10mm shims in three thicknesses: 0.1mm, 0.2mm and 0.3mm. These shims assist with accurate spacing tasks on suspension, diffs and gearboxes in scale RC models.

Useful Cases for Shims

Apply them to correct unwanted play, tune gear mesh or level out linkages. The small sizes make it simple to implement subtle changes that affect handling and drivetrain smoothness.

Maintenance and Best Practice

Keep a record of successful shim combinations and inspect shimmed areas regularly. Clean contact surfaces before installation to prevent dirt from changing your setup results.

What scale is this shim set aimed at?

These 7x10mm shims are most commonly used on 1/10 scale models, but they can suit any application matching the shim dimensions. Always confirm the required size for your parts.

Can shims affect gear noise?

Yes, altering shim thickness can change gear mesh and reduce or introduce noise. Make small changes and test to find the quietest, smoothest engagement.

What should I check before installing a shim?

Confirm the bore size and outer diameter match the component, clean the mating surfaces and avoid bending the shim during placement.

Are there quick methods to compare shim effects?

Make one change at a time, note the result, and compare lap times or handling feel. Using a log helps repeat successful setups.
