Function and Performance
The use of brass and bronze in fastening elements for slots is not coincidental: these materials combine good mechanical strength with a low weight, qualities that make them especially valued in applications where mass balance is important. In the context of SRC's Bolt System, this bolt acts as a joining and adjustment element within the LMP1 chassis assembly, ensuring precise and stable fastening during operation.
Compatibility and Installation
This bolt is designed to integrate into the models of the SRC LMP1 Project that utilise the Bolt System. If you are unsure whether your specific model uses this type of fastener, we recommend consulting your car's manual or contacting us: at Ministry of Hobby, we have the technical knowledge to guide you.
Common Mistakes
One of the most common mistakes when handling bolts of this size is over-tightening, which can damage the threading of the chassis or deform the bolt itself. Always work with appropriate tools and apply the correct torque to ensure a firm hold without compromising the material.
