Precision steering with Tamiya 53872 - 3x28 titanium turnbuckles

Tamiya 53872 - 3x28 titanium turnbuckle shafts provide a lightweight, strong option for fine tuning steering and suspension. Manufactured from quality titanium, they support accurate adjustments across many RC chassis types.

Material benefits for RC use

Titanium combines toughness with low mass, helping to preserve setup while reducing the risk of permanent bends under strain. These attributes make the shafts a sensible upgrade for racers and detail-focused hobbyists.

Best practice for installation and upkeep

Fit the turnbuckles evenly and check all joints after the first few runs to ensure nothing has worked loose. Regular inspection of ball joints and threads will extend service life and maintain precise handling.

Measure from ball centre to ball centre on your existing links at ride height and compare to the 3x28mm dimension, and confirm ball cup and thread compatibility before ordering.
Clean pivot areas regularly, check for side play, and if required lightly lubricate contact points. Replace any weakened components rather than attempting risky repairs.
Carrying a couple of spare ball ends and small tools is good practice for quick trackside repairs and to avoid being sidelined by a minor failure.
Switching to titanium may slightly reduce rotating or unsprung mass depending on the replaced parts, but changes are usually small; check handling after fitting to fine tune settings.
