Key Features
- Titanium Construction — These steering links are manufactured from premium titanium material, which provides an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio compared to standard steel or aluminium alternatives, resulting in lighter steering components that don't compromise on durability or rigidity during aggressive cornering and high-speed manoeuvres.
- AF16P Platform Compatibility — Specifically engineered for the AXIAL AF16P chassis, these steering links ensure perfect geometric fitment and optimal performance integration, eliminating compatibility concerns and guaranteeing seamless installation on your existing setup.
- Enhanced Steering Precision — The rigid titanium construction minimises flex and deflection during steering inputs, delivering more predictable and responsive handling characteristics that translate directly into faster lap times and improved driver confidence on the track or trail.
- Improved Durability — Titanium's superior material properties offer enhanced resistance to bending, cracking, and metal fatigue compared to traditional steering link materials, ensuring these components maintain their integrity through countless driving sessions and demanding conditions.
- Reduced Unsprung Weight — By utilising lightweight titanium instead of heavier alternatives, these steering links help reduce your RC car's unsprung mass, which improves suspension responsiveness, traction, and overall handling dynamics, particularly noticeable during aggressive acceleration and braking events.
