Overview
The Corally Body Clips 45 Bent Small Purple 10 Pcs (C-35103) are essential fastening components designed for RC car enthusiasts in the UK who demand quality and reliability. Whether you're racing a competitive 1/10 or 1/12 scale RC car, or simply maintaining your collection of RC vehicles, these body clips represent genuine Team Corally engineering that keeps your bodywork securely in place during high-speed runs and competitive racing. Body clips are one of the most frequently replaced consumables in RC racing, and having a reliable pack of spares on hand ensures your RC car is always ready for action.
These small-sized body clips are colour-anodised in eye-catching purple, making them instantly recognisable and easy to locate in your spares box. The 45-degree bent edge design is a game-changer for RC hobbyists who value quick setup times and effortless removal without damaging expensive bodywork. Whether you're a weekend basher enjoying casual RC driving, a competitive racer fine-tuning your 1/10 or 1/12 scale RC racing car, or an experienced RC enthusiast maintaining a fleet of vehicles, these clips deliver the performance and convenience you need.
Team Corally has built a reputation for producing high-quality RC accessories and spare parts that rival much more expensive alternatives. This 10-piece pack of body clips ensures you'll never be caught short during a race meeting or training session, and the premium spring steel construction means these clips will withstand countless installation and removal cycles without losing their grip or becoming deformed.
Key Features
- 45-Degree Bent Edge Design — The angled edge makes installation quick and effortless, allowing you to clip your body onto the chassis in seconds without fumbling or risk of dropping your model. The same feature allows equally swift removal without needing tools or excessive force, protecting your carefully painted bodywork from accidental damage.
- Premium Spring Steel Construction — These clips are manufactured from specially selected spring steel that provides superior holding power and durability compared to lower-quality alternatives. Spring steel maintains its tension and spring properties through hundreds of clip and release cycles, ensuring consistent performance throughout their lifespan.
- Colour-Anodised Purple Finish — The purple anodised coating serves both aesthetic and practical purposes. Visually, it makes these clips stand out in your spares collection and on your RC car, but more importantly, the anodised finish provides corrosion resistance and a protective layer that preserves the underlying steel from oxidation and wear.
- Small Size Format for 1/10 and 1/12 Scale Cars — These clips are specifically engineered for smaller RC racing cars, fitting perfectly on 1/10 and 1/12 scale bodies without excess length that could interfere with aerodynamics or look out of proportion on compact chassis designs.
- Generous 10-Piece Pack — With ten clips in each blister pack, you have sufficient spares for multiple bodywork changes, lost clips, or sharing with fellow RC enthusiasts. This pack size represents excellent value compared to purchasing individual clips.
- Easy Identification and Organisation — The distinctive purple colour means you can quickly spot these clips in your workshop drawer or pit box, reducing setup time at the track and helping you keep your RC spare parts neatly organised.
Technical Performance
The Corally Body Clips 45 Bent Small Purple represent the practical application of automotive engineering principles adapted for RC car racing. The 45-degree bend angle is precisely calculated to match the body mounting points on standard 1/10 and 1/12 scale RC racing cars, providing optimal leverage for both installation and removal whilst minimising stress on the clips themselves. With a total length of 20mm and a wire diameter of 1mm, these clips achieve the perfect balance between holding strength and ease of use. The 1mm diameter wire provides sufficient rigidity to maintain a firm grip on bodywork whilst remaining flexible enough to clip and unclip without excessive force that could strip threaded posts or damage body mounting bosses. The spring steel material has been carefully selected for its consistency and reliability — it resists permanent deformation even after repeated use, maintaining its original tension characteristics clip after clip. The anodised coating adds a protective barrier against moisture and corrosion, which is particularly important for RC cars used outdoors or in humid UK climates. These clips represent genuine Team Corally engineering, built to the same exacting standards as their complete RC car kits and competition-grade components.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these body clips suitable for both 1/10 and 1/12 scale RC cars? — Yes, these small-sized clips are specifically engineered for both 1/10 and 1/12 scale RC racing cars. The 20mm length and 1mm wire diameter are optimised for the body mounting points found on both scales, making them versatile for most small-scale RC vehicles including buggies, touring cars, and off-road racers.
- What makes the 45-degree bent edge so important? — The 45-degree angle is engineered to match the mounting post angles on RC car bodies, allowing you to clip and unclip your bodywork with minimal effort and without requiring additional tools. This design prevents damage to painted bodywork and reduces setup time at the track, which is crucial during competitive racing or practice sessions.
- How durable are these clips and how many times can I use them? — The premium spring steel construction is designed to withstand hundreds of installation and removal cycles without losing its grip or becoming permanently deformed. Unlike cheaper plastic or lower-grade steel clips, these maintain their original tension characteristics throughout their lifespan, making them a cost-effective long-term investment for regular RC racers.
- Will these clips fit my RC car? — These clips are designed for small-sized 1/10 and 1/12 scale RC cars. If you're unsure whether your specific model uses small-size clips, check your bodywork's clip mounting posts or consult your RC car's manual. Corally also produces other clip sizes for larger scale models, so if these don't fit, alternative sizes are available.
- Why should I buy a 10-piece pack? — Body clips are frequently lost during races, training sessions, or maintenance work. A 10-piece pack ensures you always have spares available without needing to reorder before your next race meeting. This pack represents excellent value compared to purchasing individual clips, and the spare clips can be shared with fellow RC enthusiasts or used as replacements as your originals wear out.
- Is the purple colour just aesthetic or does it serve a purpose? — While the vibrant purple finish looks great on your RC car and makes these clips easy to spot in your spares box, the anodised coating serves an important protective function. The anodised layer resists corrosion and oxidation, extending the lifespan of the underlying spring steel, particularly important in the UK's damp climate.
