Race-Ready Titanium Screws for the XV-02 Chassis

The Tamiya 47488 XV-02 Titanium Screw Set provides a direct upgrade path from steel to titanium fasteners, trimming roughly 23 grams from the XV-02 chassis. That reduction can sharpen handling and responsiveness for on-road and club racing sessions.

Kit Breakdown

The package contains a selection of hex head and countersunk titanium screws suitable for typical XV-02 mounting points:

  • 3x23mm Hex Head Screws x4
  • 3x20mm Hex Head Screws x5
  • 3x14mm Hex Head Screws x10
  • 3x12mm Hex Head Screws x4
  • 3x10mm Hex Head Screws x12
  • 3x8mm Hex Head Screws x32
  • 3x6mm Hex Head Screws x7
  • 3x14mm Countersunk Hex Head Screw x1
  • 3x10mm Countersunk Hex Head Screws x6
  • 3x8mm Countersunk Hex Head Screws x19

Installation Guidance

Retain the kit motor cap screw for motor mounting. If threads need cleaning or forming, the Item 54232 M3 x 0.5mm thread forming tap is a helpful companion. This set is built for XV-02 chassis cars and intended as a model-specific upgrade.

The main gain is lower fastener weight, about 23 grams, which can improve handling precision rather than dramatically increasing speed.
Basic hex drivers are fine, but if existing threads are tight or damaged, using Item 54232 (M3 x 0.5mm thread forming tap) is recommended for a secure fit.
Titanium resists corrosion better than plain steel, but regular cleaning and inspection after dusty or wet runs will prolong component life.
