Upgrade Your TA Chassis with Hollow Carbon Shafts

The Tamiya 53164 RC 4WD Hollow Carbon Shaft Set is an effective upgrade for TA-01 and TA-02 owners wanting to cut rotating mass while retaining drivetrain strength. The carbon construction aims to deliver predictable handling and improved acceleration response.

Notable Details of the Tamiya Shaft Set

Compatibility: Tailored for TA-01, TA-02 and TA-02W chassis configurations.
Material: Hollow carbon fibre for a favourable strength-to-weight balance.
Color: Professional black finish for a discreet look.
Included Components: Set includes long, medium and short shafts to cover the full drive layout.
Installation Note: Bearings are not included; fitting suitable ball bearings is recommended for best results.

Will these improve lap times?

Reducing rotating weight can help throttle response and acceleration, which may translate to better lap consistency. Actual gains depend on the rest of the setup and driving conditions.

Are these suitable for off-road use?

They work well on mixed surfaces but carbon can be more prone to damage from heavy impacts. For hard off-road use check for compatibility with your suspension and consider protection or spares.

How do I check shaft condition?

Regularly inspect shafts for nicks or cracks, ensure grub screws are tight, and spin the drivetrain to listen for bearing noise. Replace any shaft showing structural damage.
