Race-focused drivetrain upgrade from Serpent 401380

The Serpent 401380 Solid Axle/Spool provides consistent torque delivery and removes differential slip between driven wheels. It is aimed at racers who require predictable handling and repeatable lap times.

Notable features and benefits

Compatibility: Usable across several chassis platforms for flexible race applications.
Durability: Manufactured to cope with the demands of competition running.
Performance: Enhances stability under power to support cleaner exits and controlled cornering.

Will using a spool like Serpent 401380 change my steering characteristics?

A spool locks driven wheels together, which can reduce inside wheel rotation during cornering and lead to understeer in some setups; small suspension or toe adjustments often compensate well.

Is this part suitable for club level racing?

Yes, it is commonly used at club and regional levels where drivers want consistent power delivery and reduced drivetrain variability.

How often should I inspect the spool?

Carry out routine inspections after every event, checking for spline wear and signs of scoring, and clean components to prevent grit-related damage.

Will this affect tyre wear?

Because torque is shared evenly, you may see different wear patterns compared with an open differential; monitor tyre wear and adjust camber or pressure if needed.

What upgrades pair well with this spool?

High quality bearings, hardened drive cups and precise shimming are common complementary upgrades to maintain smooth operation and longevity.
