Compact Guard for Motor Longevity

The Tamiya 54817 Aluminum Motor Guard is a compact accessory designed to shield the motor from grit and small debris. Fabricated from aluminium, it also aids thermal transfer so the motor stays cooler during extended running sessions.

Fitment Details and Mounting Steps

Compatible with Tamiya GF-01, G6-01 and WR-02 chassis variants, the guard fits using the supplied two 3x28mm cap screws. A hex wrench is included to help with assembly; confirm alignment and torque the screws evenly for a secure fit.

Why Choose an Aluminium Component

Aluminium provides a solid balance of strength and reduced weight, making it suitable for protective parts that should not compromise agility. The material also helps to draw heat away from the motor housing during heavy use.

The guard is intended for standard motor positions on GF-01, G6-01 and WR-02 chassis. Aftermarket motors with different case sizes or mountings may need custom fitting or spacer hardware.
A hex wrench is included, so no special tools are required. A small driver set can help with clearance and access in tight builds.
While the guard blocks much debris, aluminium can corrode if exposed to salt water. Rinse and dry components after wet runs and replace mounting screws with stainless hardware if needed.
