Key Features
- High-Quality Lightweight Aluminium Construction — These steering plates are manufactured from premium aluminium alloy, which delivers a perfect balance between strength and weight. The lightweight design helps reduce overall vehicle weight, contributing to improved acceleration, braking performance, and handling characteristics, whilst maintaining the structural integrity needed for demanding RC driving conditions.
- Anodised Red Finish — The anodised red coating serves a dual purpose: it provides an eye-catching aesthetic that complements your ARRMA truck and adds a professional, factory-built appearance. More importantly, the anodised finish creates a protective oxide layer that significantly increases durability and corrosion resistance, extending the lifespan of these components even in wet or muddy conditions.
- Precision Manufactured Mounting Holes — Every mounting hole has been manufactured to exact tolerances, ensuring a perfect fit with your steering linkages and other components. This precision engineering means installation is straightforward and fast, reducing maintenance time and ensuring consistent, reliable performance every time you take your RC model to the track or field.
- Set of Two Plates — You receive two steering plates in this package, providing a complete replacement set or allowing you to maintain spare parts for quick repairs during events or regular maintenance schedules.
Technical Performance
These ARRMA aluminium steering plates represent the engineering standards you would expect from a leading manufacturer of 1/5 scale brushless RC trucks. The use of precision-machined aluminium ensures that these components can withstand the stresses and forces generated during aggressive driving with 8S LiPo power systems, which deliver substantial torque and acceleration. The anodised finish adds a protective layer that defends against oxidation and corrosion, meaning these parts maintain their structural integrity and appearance through repeated use in various weather conditions. The precision-manufactured mounting holes guarantee dimensional consistency, which is critical for maintaining accurate steering geometry and ensuring your truck responds predictably to throttle and steering inputs. These spare parts are engineered to the same exacting standards as the original factory components, ensuring they integrate seamlessly with your existing ARRMA chassis and suspension setup. Whether you are replacing worn steering components or upgrading as part of a maintenance routine, these plates deliver professional-grade performance and reliability.
