Precision Setup with Tamiya 49318 Turnbuckles

Fine tune your model with Tamiya's 49318 Aluminum Turnbuckle Shafts. These 3x32mm aluminium shafts are made to assist with accurate suspension geometry changes while keeping weight low.

Core Features Explained

Material: Aluminium offers corrosion resistance and a favourable strength to weight balance.
Size: The 3x32mm specification provides a commonly used length for many chassis and linkages.
Function: Used to set and adjust suspension link lengths for improved balance and steering response.

Who Should Fit These Turnbuckles

These shafts are for modellers and competitors aiming for precise setup control. Tamiya 49318 parts are straightforward to fit and make incremental tuning quicker and more reliable.

Do I need special tools to adjust these turnbuckles?

A small turnbuckle wrench or a pair of fine pliers is usually sufficient. Use care to avoid marring the aluminium surface when making adjustments.

Will changing to aluminium affect handling?

Switching to aluminium can slightly shift weight distribution and improve feedback from the suspension. The main advantage is consistent adjustment and reduced flex compared with softer materials.

How often should I inspect these parts?

Check turnbuckles after every few sessions and after any heavy impacts. Look for thread wear, loose joints and any signs of bending, replacing items if needed.

Are these compatible with common ball ends?

Compatibility depends on the thread pitch and ball end style. If the fittings match, you can pair them with commonly available ball ends for a secure link assembly.
