Tamiya 15493 - Pack of five 2mm Red Aluminium Lock Nuts

Purpose and fitment

The Tamiya 15493 2mm Aluminum Lock Nuts include a nylon ring to hold fasteners in place and resist loosening from vibration. They suit common Mini 4WD screw dimensions and small assembly points.

Performance considerations

Adding lock nuts can reduce the need for mid-race checks by helping wheels and accessories remain secure. They are a simple reliability upgrade for club racing and casual track use.

Visual effect on models

The red anodised coating offers a tidy styling touch to Mini 4WD cars and pairs well with alloy parts and painted bodies without adding bulk.

rating
I have been purchasing Tamiya products with Rcjaz for a couple of months now, selection is awesome and service is quick and reliable, considering I leave half way around the world.

Do these lock nuts suit all Mini 4WD kits?

They are compatible with most Mini 4WD kits that use 2mm fasteners. Verify thread pitch and clearances around bulkheads before fitting, especially on thin chassis areas.

What should I check after installing them?

Check for proper clearance with nearby parts and ensure wheels spin freely. Recheck tightness after a couple of runs as the nylon may settle slightly.

Are coloured lock nuts purely cosmetic?

The colour is mainly cosmetic, but anodising also provides corrosion resistance. The primary function remains the nylon locking feature that keeps fastenings secure.
