Stabilise RM-01 suspension with fluorine coated pivot balls

The Tamiya 51485 - RM-01 Fluorine Coated Pivot Ball Set is produced for the RM-01 chassis to increase wear life and reduce friction in the rear suspension. These pivot balls are used in the side links and centre pivot to enhance stability during fast runs and technical sections.

Advantages of fluorine on moving joints

Fluorine coating lowers surface friction, which reduces component wear and helps maintain smooth articulation. Installing these pivot balls on your RM-01 improves responsiveness and consistency on track or during club runs. The set contains five pivot balls, enough for routine servicing or part replacement.

The fluorine finish reduces friction but you should still inspect for grit or damage after rough off-road use. Clean and check parts regularly to avoid accelerated wear.
Installation is straightforward for most RC hobbyists: remove worn pivot balls, check link condition, and fit the new balls without over-tightening. Test movement after assembly.
Routine inspection and cleaning are recommended. The coating helps cut down maintenance, but replace balls when play or surface damage appears.
