Smooth Motion Upgrade for F103 Chassis

The Tamiya 53149 Teflon Friction Pad Set is an upgrade piece for the F103 Formula 1 chassis range. The Teflon construction reduces rubbing between parts and gives a cleaner mechanical feel for driving and lap consistency.

Performance-Focused Details

This kit takes the place of the original D2 and D7 friction parts on the F103 chassis to lower internal resistance and help deliver steadier steering inputs. Teflon minimises wear so performance stays closer to initial setup longer.

Included Items

2 Outer Teflon Friction Pads (Replaces Stock Part D2)
1 Middle Teflon Friction Pad (Replaces Stock Part D7)

Will fitting these require chassis modification?

No structural modifications are normally required. The pads are shaped to replace the stock D2 and D7 items directly on standard F103 chassis assemblies.

Do they change how the car feels on bump surfaces?

By reducing internal friction the chassis can react more freely to bumps, which often improves small bump compliance without altering suspension travel.

Is cleaning different for Teflon pads?

Clean them gently with a soft brush or compressed air to remove grit. Avoid solvents that could affect surrounding plastics and recheck function after cleaning.
