Workshop Ready Tamiya 70171 3mm Shafts

The Tamiya 70171 3mm Threaded Shaft Set supplies reliable threaded rods and fittings for model making and robotics. These parts are built to be adapted into linkages and moving assemblies in hobby projects.

Kit Contents and Adjustment

This package includes three 150mm threaded shafts plus 5mm adjusters and ball head connectors. The adjusters allow you to dial in exact lengths so the shafts fit your link geometry. They suit applications where precise linkage alignment is needed.

Integration with Tamiya Kits

Compatible with a wide array of Tamiya gearboxes and construction components, the set is handy for custom gearbox links or experimental mechanisms. The threaded shafts can be trimmed and adjusted to suit different setups.

How do I fix the ball head to the shaft?

Thread the ball head onto the shaft and secure it with the included 5mm adjuster. Tighten to avoid play but do not over torque small plastic parts.

Are the shafts metal or plastic?

The shafts and fittings are designed for model link tasks; inspect the parts visually to confirm material and suitability for your application.

Can these be used in gearbox end stops?

Yes, when adjusted to the correct length they can serve as link points or end stops in light duty gearbox assemblies typical of Tamiya kits.

Do I need thread locker on the adjusters?

For most hobby uses a small dab of medium strength thread locker can help prevent loosening, but test on scrap first to avoid seizing fine threads.
