Arrowmax 4mm & 5mm low-profile connectors

Arrowmax have introduced their new 4mm and 5mm low-profile battery connectors. Utilising a 6-point design and 24K Gold-plating, the plugs will offer a very low resistance for best possible performance while their pre-shaped design will make soldering nice and tidy. The low-profile button head improves clearance so the head will not interfere with the low top decks of today’s electric touring cars. The connectors come as pairs and they are available now.

DE Racing Speedway Mud Plugs

DE Racing have introduced the new Speedway Mud Plugs. The mud plug discs simply snap-in to DE Racing’s Speedway series of wheels and they not only help with keeping heavy mud out, but their flat surface offers a billboard to display personal styling flair with some optional cut or printed vinyl. They are a clever solution to the problem of mud packing into the outer side of a wheel that perfectly emulates those found in full scale racing and the discs are easily removed by depressing a tab on the inside of the wheel with just one finger. The mud plugs come in sets of four and they are available now.

The 3mm button head screws are available in 6mm, 8mm and 10mm specification while the flat head variant comes in 6mm and 8mm length. All are available as 4-piece or 10-piece packs.
