Serpent TiN Pivot Pins for Improved SRX2 Durability

The Serpent 500262 pivot pin set fits the SRX2 chassis and brings a titanium nitride coating to key pivot points, giving better resistance to wear. These pins are specified for the front inner and rear outer locations to preserve suspension geometry under load.

Advantages of a TiN Surface

The TiN layer offers a hard, slippery contact surface which lowers friction and slows down material loss. This helps maintain tight tolerances and keeps handling predictable during repeated running.

Engineered for Stable Handling

Made to race-ready tolerances, the Serpent 500262 pins ensure reliable suspension articulation and improved repeatability lap after lap. That reliability aids setup work and delivers consistent on-track behaviour.

Practical Installation and Upkeep

  • Make sure pivot bores are free from old grease and contaminants before installing.
  • A small amount of light oil will support smooth initial movement without attracting excessive dirt.
  • Regular inspections after events will catch wear early so you can replace pins before handling is affected.
Thread lock is not normally used on plain pivot pins. If using small set screws or retainers, use a low strength thread locker sparingly and avoid contaminating the bearing surfaces.
Look for scoring, flat spots or increased play in the pivot joint. Any loss of smooth movement or change in suspension response means replacement is recommended.
No special lubricant is required. A light synthetic or bearing oil keeps them moving freely while avoiding heavy greases that trap dirt in pivot areas.
