RC-Project clutch bell retaining screw

RC-Project have introduced their new “Limited Edition” titanium clutch bell retaining screw for 1/8th off-road and single-speed GT vehicles. Machined from highest quality Grade 5 6Al4V titanium the screw will offer different thermal expansion compared to steel, making it possible to undo or fasten the bolt even when the engine is still hot after a run. In addition the new design of the fastener prevents it from rubbing on the clutch bearing or end bell which reduces heat built up while adding to the overall durability of the whole system. With a screw head thickness of 3mm the clutch bell retainer also presents collisions with the fuel tank in tight surroundings. What also makes the screw stand out is the 5.5mm socket head that allows for much easier and more reliable assembly and easier removal compared to using a classic 2.5mm hex head. As each screw features a unique number, RC-Project gives a 1-year warranty on the fastener that is available separately or in pairs.
