Any slot racing or dynamic modelling enthusiast knows how frustrating it is to lose a body pin during a session, or to find the body marked by a pin that does not hold properly. The Yeah Racing Body Pin Holder YE-0128GN solves exactly that problem: it integrates the pin and its silicone holder into a set designed to ensure nothing moves, nothing gets lost, and nothing leaves a mark.
Main Features

- The silicone holder cushions contact with the body, preventing marks or deformations.
- Compact design that facilitates quick installation and removal of the body.

Function and Performance
The silicone holder that accompanies the pin is the distinguishing element of this accessory. The silicone acts as both a retention and cushioning element: it holds the pin in the correct position during use while simultaneously protecting the body from direct contact with metal. The result is a stable fixing without compromising the finish of the body.
Assembly and Preparation
Installation is straightforward and does not require special tools. The silicone holder is placed at the usual anchoring point of the body, and the pin fits into it precisely. Once assembled, the body is securely held and can be removed just as easily when access to the chassis or motor is needed.
Ideal for…
- Slot racing enthusiasts who frequently change bodies and need a reliable and quick fixing system.
- Preparation workshops where agile car maintenance is a priority.
- Users who want to protect painted bodies or those with delicate decals from direct contact with metal pins.
Considerations
Before purchasing the Body Pin Holder, check that the pin diameter is compatible with the anchoring points of your body. If you have doubts about compatibility with your specific model, the Ministry of Hobby team can provide guidance without obligation.
