Intro to the Tamiya 94801 JR 5mm pipes

The Tamiya 94801 JR 5mm Pipe set is a straightforward precision part for Mini 4WD models running double aluminium rollers. These pipes support accurate roller alignment and contribute to predictable handling on technical layouts.

Compatibility and intended use

Specifically produced to pair with Tamiya double aluminium roller items, the 5mm pipes act as alignment sleeves that keep roller assemblies true to the chassis. The four piece pack gives enough replacements for multiple roller positions or spare parts for events.

  • Compatible with Item 15398 Double Aluminum Rollers (13-12mm)
  • Compatible with Item 15403 Double Aluminum Rollers (9-8mm)
  • Compatible with Item 15418 Double Aluminum Rollers with Rubber Rings (13-12mm)

Why they matter for lap consistency

Maintaining correct roller alignment reduces lateral play and helps the car track more reliably through corners. Using the Tamiya 94801 JR pipes can improve consistency between laps, particularly on tracks with rapid direction changes.

They are listed as compatible with the rubber ring type double aluminium rollers, but you should confirm the pipe bore matches the roller inner before fitting to avoid fit issues.
Replace them if you notice increased play or visible wear in the bore. Regular inspection after race meetings helps catch wear early and keeps handling consistent.
Light polishing of metal contact surfaces can help, but avoid removing too much material which could affect fit. Small amounts of light lubricant can also reduce friction, used sparingly.
