Overview
Dial in tight tolerances on large-diameter drivetrain components with the Hot Racing Steel Shim Set in 10x11x0.2mm. This 10-pack of precision steel shims is engineered for shimming 10mm-diameter axles, large gears, and big-scale drivetrain components — exactly what you need for 1/8 and 1/5 scale platforms with heavier-duty internals.
The thicker 0.2mm shim profile is well-suited to the loads and tolerances of larger drivetrains, while the precision steel construction stands up to the heat and pressure of high-power brushless setups. Shimming large drivetrains is critical — slop in big gearboxes wastes serious power and accelerates wear dramatically.
Key Features
- Precision steel construction
- 10 shims per pack — enough for multiple builds
- Designed for 10mm-diameter axles and large components
- 0.2mm thickness for substantial gap correction
- Reduces slop in heavy-duty drivetrains
Performance Benefits
- Eliminates end-play slop in large axles and gears
- Reduces vibration and gear chatter
- More efficient power transfer in high-power drivetrains
- Extends the life of heavy-duty bearings, gears, and seals
- More predictable, consistent vehicle behavior under load
Usage Notes
Use a feeler gauge or trial fitment to determine the correct number of shims for your application. Stack multiple shims as needed to achieve the right end-play. Note: manufacturing tolerances of approximately +/- 0.02mm may be expected. Inspect for burrs and clean before installation.
