Overview
Protect your RC10T6.4 chassis with the Team Associated Factory Team Chassis Protective Sheet Printed (AS71184), the ultimate solution for extending the lifespan of your investment. Whether you race competitively indoors or bash outdoors on UK tracks, the underside of your RC truck chassis takes constant punishment from impacts, abrasion and environmental wear. This factory-engineered protective sheet is designed specifically for the RC10T6.4 to shield your chassis from premature damage whilst maintaining the performance characteristics your truck needs to deliver consistent lap times and reliable handling.
Manufactured by Team Associated, one of the most recognised names in competitive RC racing globally, this chassis protective sheet represents genuine factory engineering. It's not an aftermarket afterthought — it's a Factory Team component developed by the same engineers who design championship-winning RC vehicles. The sheet comes pre-cut to fit your RC10T6.4 perfectly, meaning no measuring, no cutting, and no wasted material. Simply peel and stick using the included adhesive backing, and your chassis is protected immediately.
For RC enthusiasts in the UK looking to maintain their RC car's condition and performance over longer racing seasons, this is an essential upgrade. The combination of durable vinyl construction and attractive Factory Team printed design means you're not just protecting your investment — you're giving your truck that professional competition look that separates serious racers from casual bashers.
Key Features
- Adhesive-backed 18-mil vinyl construction — The thick 18-mil vinyl material provides substantial protective coverage that absorbs impact and resists abrasion from track surfaces, dirt and rocks, whilst the pre-applied adhesive backing means quick, secure installation without requiring separate adhesive products or messy application processes.
- Pre-cut Factory Team design — Rather than supplying a generic sheet you'll need to trim yourself, Team Associated engineers have already cut this sheet to the exact dimensions and contours of the RC10T6.4 chassis, ensuring perfect fit and complete protection of vulnerable areas with no trimming required.
- Intricate Factory Driver printed finish — The detailed printed graphics featuring authentic Factory Team design elements don't just look professional — they add visual identity to your truck and demonstrate commitment to proper vehicle maintenance, the hallmark of experienced RC racers.
- Improves chassis lifespan — By creating a protective barrier between your chassis and the track surface, this sheet significantly reduces scuffs, scratches and material degradation that accumulate during racing, helping ensure your chassis remains structurally sound and performing optimally for seasons to come.
- Maintains performance over longer runs — A well-protected chassis is a performing chassis; by preventing damage and wear to the underside of your RC10T6.4, this sheet helps maintain the structural integrity and suspension geometry that directly affect handling, traction and lap consistency throughout extended racing sessions.
- Suitable for indoor and outdoor use — Whether you're racing on carpeted indoor tracks or loose outdoor terrain, this protective sheet delivers consistent protection across all UK track conditions and racing environments.
Technical Performance
The Team Associated T6.4 FT Chassis Protective Sheet Printed is engineered from premium-grade adhesive-backed 18-mil vinyl, a material thickness specifically chosen to provide robust protection without adding unnecessary weight to your RC10T6.4. The 18-mil specification represents a professional standard in automotive and RC protection — thick enough to absorb impacts and resist tearing from sharp track obstacles, yet flexible enough to conform to the contours and mounting points of your chassis without creating gaps or lifting at the edges. The pre-applied adhesive backing utilises a strong yet removable formulation, meaning you can apply this sheet confidently knowing it will stay firmly in place throughout racing sessions whilst remaining removable if you ever need to access the chassis for maintenance or repairs. The printed finish isn't just decorative — the graphics are applied using durable printing techniques that resist fading even under UV exposure during outdoor racing. This sheet has been engineered specifically for the RC10T6.4 platform, meaning every curve, mounting point and chassis feature has been considered in the design and cutting process. Installation is straightforward: simply clean the bottom of your chassis thoroughly, peel back the backing, and press the pre-cut sheet firmly into place, working from the centre outward to eliminate air bubbles. The result is an RC10T6.4 that looks factory-prepared, performs optimally, and shows significantly reduced wear rates even after months of intensive racing on both indoor carpeted surfaces and outdoor dirt and asphalt tracks.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a chassis protective sheet and why should I use one on my RC10T6.4? — A chassis protective sheet is a thin adhesive-backed vinyl layer that adheres to the underside of your RC truck chassis, creating a protective barrier against the track surface. During racing, your chassis is constantly exposed to impacts, abrasion from dirt and stones, and rough track conditions that cause scuffs and material degradation. This protective sheet significantly extends the lifespan of your chassis by absorbing this wear, helping maintain the structural integrity and performance characteristics that affect your truck's handling and speed consistency. For competitive racers and serious enthusiasts who want their RC10T6.4 to perform reliably over multiple seasons, a protective sheet is an essential maintenance upgrade.
- Will this protective sheet add weight to my RC10T6.4 and affect handling? — No. The 18-mil vinyl material is lightweight and the adhesive backing adds negligible mass. Any weight addition from this sheet will be minimal and undetectable in terms of performance impact. The protective benefits in terms of maintained chassis integrity and reduced damage far outweigh any theoretical weight consideration, and the sheet contributes to your truck's performance by keeping the chassis in better condition.
- How do I install the Team Associated T6.4 FT Chassis Protective Sheet? — Installation is simple and requires no special tools. First, thoroughly clean the underside of your RC10T6.4 chassis with a dry cloth to remove any dirt or dust that might prevent adhesion. Once clean and dry, carefully peel back a corner of the protective backing from the adhesive-backed sheet. Position the sheet on your chassis, starting from the centre, then gradually peel away more of the backing whilst pressing the sheet firmly into place, working outward to eliminate air bubbles. Press firmly across the entire surface to ensure complete adhesion, and allow a few minutes for the adhesive to set before running your truck.
- Is this protective sheet suitable for both indoor and outdoor racing? — Yes, absolutely. Whether you race on carpeted indoor tracks where chassis contact with the surface is minimal but debris can still cause wear, or on outdoor dirt and asphalt surfaces where abrasion is more intense, this protective sheet delivers consistent protection. The durable 18-mil vinyl material and weather-resistant printed finish perform reliably in all UK racing conditions and environments.
- Can I remove this protective sheet if I need to access my chassis underneath? — Yes. The adhesive used is strong enough to keep the sheet firmly in place during racing, but it's formulated to be removable if you ever need to access the chassis for maintenance, repairs or upgrades. Simply peel back a corner and carefully lift the sheet away. If you plan to reinstall it, handle it carefully to preserve the adhesive backing, though the bond may weaken after removal.
- What makes this an official Team Associated part rather than a generic aftermarket protective sheet? — This is an official Factory Team component engineered specifically for the RC10T6.4 platform. Team Associated's engineers have designed the cutting pattern and size to match the exact dimensions and contours of the RC10T6.4 chassis, ensuring perfect fit and complete protection of all vulnerable areas. The printed design features authentic Factory Team graphics developed by the company's design team. This is not a one-size-fits-all product — it's purpose-built for your truck, delivering professional-grade protection developed by the same engineers who design championship-winning RC vehicles.
