Overview
The ARRMA Turnbuckle, 5x50mm Steel Black (2) is an essential suspension component for RC enthusiasts maintaining or upgrading their high-performance RC models. Whether you're a dedicated competitor running brushless RC buggies and trucks, or a weekend basher pushing your RC car UK to the limit, these precision-engineered turnbuckles deliver the reliability and adjustability your suspension setup demands. This pack contains two steel turnbuckles specifically designed as replacement parts for ARRMA vehicles, making them ideal for those who want genuine OEM components that maintain their model's performance characteristics and durability standards.
Turnbuckles are critical suspension components that allow drivers to fine-tune ride height, suspension geometry and handling characteristics with precision. The M5x50mm specification fits a wide range of ARRMA models including the 1/7 scale Felony 6S, Infraction 6S, and Limitless 6S, as well as the popular 1/8 scale Typhon 6S. For UK RC car enthusiasts looking to maintain stock suspension geometry or experiment with setup changes, these steel turnbuckles offer the adjustability necessary to dial in perfect handling for any track condition or driving style. The black finish matches modern ARRMA aesthetic whilst the precision manufacturing ensures smooth, reliable operation.
Built from super-tough steel material, these turnbuckles are engineered to withstand the forces generated by high-speed RC racing and aggressive bashing. The specially designed adjuster mechanism allows for rapid setup changes between heats or sessions, making these components invaluable for competitors and enthusiasts alike. When your suspension needs refresh or you're building a new ready to run RC model, genuine ARRMA turnbuckles ensure your vehicle maintains the manufacturer's engineering standards and performance envelope.
Key Features
- Super-tough steel material — Manufactured from high-quality steel, these turnbuckles provide exceptional durability and crash resistance, ensuring they withstand the demanding forces of high-speed RC driving and impacts that come with bashful RC car use without bending or breaking.
- Precision manufactured threads — The threads are engineered to exacting tolerances, enabling fast and easy installation on your RC model whilst maintaining accurate adjustment capability so you can dial in suspension geometry with confidence and repeatability.
- Specially designed adjuster — The turnbuckle adjuster is optimised for quick and precise setup changes, allowing you to modify ride height and suspension characteristics between races or driving sessions without requiring tools or complicated procedures.
- Black finish — The professional black colour finish delivers cool looks that match contemporary ARRMA vehicle styling, whilst the coating provides corrosion resistance for longevity in various weather conditions.
- M5x50mm specification — The 5mm diameter threading and 50mm overall length is specifically engineered to fit ARRMA's suspension geometry, ensuring perfect fitment on compatible models without modification or adaptation.
- Pack of two — Two turnbuckles per pack provide one complete front or rear suspension setup, allowing symmetrical adjustment across your RC model's suspension for balanced handling characteristics.
Technical Performance
These ARRMA steel turnbuckles represent precision engineering designed specifically for modern high-performance RC vehicles. The M5x50mm specification means they feature a 5mm diameter threaded rod with an overall length of 50mm, making them compatible with numerous ARRMA scale models from 1/7 scale speed machines like the Limitless 6S and street bash vehicles like the Infraction 6S, right through to 1/8 scale buggies such as the Typhon 6S. The super-tough steel construction provides excellent rigidity and durability, resisting bending even under the extreme suspension loads generated by brushless RC cars accelerating, braking and cornering at speed. Precision manufacturing of the threading ensures smooth operation when adjusting ride height, eliminating binding or resistance that can affect setup accuracy. The specially designed adjuster mechanism is optimised for ease of use, allowing drivers to make fine adjustments without requiring specialised tools or excessive force. Whether you're fine-tuning suspension for competitive RC racing on challenging tracks or setting up your bashful RC model for rough terrain, these turnbuckles provide the adjustability and reliability that serious RC car UK enthusiasts demand.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which ARRMA models are these turnbuckles compatible with? — These M5x50mm steel turnbuckles are designed for use on multiple ARRMA vehicles including the 1/7 scale Felony 6S AVC, Infraction 6S AVC, Infraction 6S, Limitless 120 8S AVC, Limitless 6S, and the 1/8 scale Typhon 6S. Always verify fitment with your specific model variant as suspension geometry can vary between different versions and scales.
- Are these genuine ARRMA parts? — Yes, these are genuine ARRMA OEM (original equipment manufacturer) suspension components with the official ARRMA part number AR330214, ensuring they meet ARRMA's engineering standards and will function perfectly on compatible models.
- What size threads do these turnbuckles have? — The turnbuckles feature M5 threading, which means 5mm diameter metric threads that are standard on many ARRMA suspension components. This metric specification is typical for modern RC vehicles and ensures precise fit and adjustment.
- How do I adjust these turnbuckles? — Turn the adjuster barrel at the centre of the turnbuckle to modify ride height. Rotate clockwise to shorten and counterclockwise to lengthen. The precision manufactured threads allow smooth, accurate adjustment for fine-tuning your suspension setup without requiring tools.
- Can I use these for both front and rear suspension? — Yes, these M5x50mm turnbuckles are universal suspension components suitable for either front or rear mounting depending on your ARRMA model's requirements. Two per pack allows you to set up one axle with matching geometry.
- Why would I need replacement turnbuckles? — Turnbuckles can wear out, threads can strip, or you may want to replace them when refreshing suspension components. They're also essential consumables for racers who frequently adjust suspension geometry between different track conditions and driving styles.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Turnbuckles are basic suspension components suitable for any skill level. Whilst beginners typically won't need to adjust them frequently, having genuine ARRMA replacements on hand is good practice for any RC car UK owner as they're straightforward to install and adjust with basic mechanical knowledge.
