Precision carbon strap for SDX chassis

The Serpent 500648 Shorty Carbon Battery Strap is engineered to clamp the battery reliably while minimising added mass. Machined from carbon fibre, it is contoured to the SDX tray for consistent retention during aggressive driving.

Structural benefits of carbon fibre

Carbon fibre offers high stiffness and low weight, reducing flex around the pack bay and helping maintain chassis response. The material is suited to repeated race impacts while keeping weight low.

Compatibility with SDX layouts

The strap matches common SDX mounting patterns for straightforward installation and quick battery changes between runs. It is intended to work with standard tray geometries without the need for modification.

Fitting advice and upkeep

  • Ensure the battery sits flush before tensioning the strap to avoid connector strain.
  • Check for tiny cracks or wear near the fixing points after heavy use and replace if necessary.
  • Use lightweight fasteners and tidy wiring to preserve the strap's weight advantage.
It generally fits standard SDX trays; if your tray has custom cutouts or non standard screw spacing, verify clearances before final fitting.
Standard lightweight screws used on SDX battery mounts are suitable; avoid over tightening which can stress carbon at the fixing points.
Keep the strap flat in a dry place away from strong solvents and prolonged UV exposure to maintain its finish and structural properties.
