Tamiya 53196 TGX Wheel Axle Ball Bearing Set OP-196 - Performance Bearing Kit  [53196]

Improve Rolling Efficiency on Tamiya TGX

If you want crisper wheel behaviour on a Tamiya TGX, the Tamiya 53196 Wheel Axle Ball Bearing Set swaps the factory bushings for precision bearings to provide smoother rotation and reduced drivetrain friction. The result is steadier handling and lower wear on axle parts.

What Ball Bearings Deliver

Ball bearings cut down internal friction relative to bushings, improving mechanical efficiency and lowering heat build-up. This contributes to more consistent lap times and reduced component fatigue over extended use.

Fitting Advice

Fitting the Tamiya 53196 Wheel Axle Ball Bearing Set is a straightforward maintenance task. Clean the TGX hubs, remove the worn bushings, then press the bearings in squarely to ensure correct alignment and smooth operation.

Intended Models and Usage

This bearing set is intended for Tamiya TGX series models and is suitable for a range of activities from casual runs to club competition where dependable wheel movement matters.
