RC-Project titanium clutch retainer screw

Coming from RC-Project is a titanium clutch retainer screw for off-road style clutches. Machined from certified Grade 5 6Al4V titanium the screw is 8.5mm long and due to its design the screw head protrudes only 2.5mm which allows for greater clearance towards the fuel tank, ensuring greater security in case of excessive chassis flex. The design also eliminates any rubbing issues between the screw head and the clutch bearing, reducing operation temperatures and the chance of ball bearing failures while the screw’s large outer diameter offers protection against dust and debris. The screw is usable with most 1/8th off-road and many single speed GT clutches. The screws are available separately, as 2-piece or 5-piece packages.
