AW Offset Motor Mount 1.0mm EVO6 Hard Bearings

Anglewinder Precision with 1.0 mm Offset: the EVO6 Hard Mount from Slot.it that Makes a Difference on Track

Slot.it has been a benchmark for high-precision spare parts in competitive slot racing for decades, and the motor mount SICH119b is a good example of that philosophy: every millimetre counts, every component serves an exact function. This mount from the EVO6 series, in Hard version and with integrated bearings, is designed for Anglewinder configurations —that is, with the motor positioned at an angle to the rear axle— and with an offset of 1.0 mm.

Function and Performance

The motor mount is the element that secures and positions the motor within the chassis, determining the alignment between pinion and crown gear. In an Anglewinder configuration, the motor's inclination allows for a lower centre of gravity combined with efficient transmission. The EVO6 Hard version provides greater structural rigidity compared to softer versions, resulting in a more direct transmission and less flex under load, which is particularly noticeable in fast corners and during hard braking sections.

The 1.0 mm offset allows for lateral adjustment of the motor position to fine-tune the meshing —the engagement between pinion and crown gear— with greater precision, adapting the gear ratio and alignment to the needs of the chassis and the chosen component combination.

The inclusion of bearings in this mount reduces friction on the axle and improves consistency in rotation, also prolonging the lifespan of the motor-axle assembly.

Compatibility

This mount is designed to integrate into Slot.it chassis from the EVO6 family. If you have doubts about whether it fits your specific chassis, consult the technical sheet of your platform or contact us: Slot.it's modular chassis system allows for a wide variety of combinations, but the mount reference must match the chassis generation.

Assembly and Preparation

Assembly is straightforward if the correct order is followed: first, verify that the chassis accommodates the indicated offset, then place the mount with the bearings properly seated, and finally, check the backlash between pinion and crown gear before securing it definitively. A small variation in tightening can affect the meshing, so it is advisable to conduct a test on the bench before heading to the track.

• Hard version: greater rigidity, more direct transmission.
• 1.0 mm offset: precise adjustment of the motor's lateral position.
• Integrated bearings: reduced friction and increased durability.
• Anglewinder configuration: motor at an angle to the rear axle.
• EVO6 series: compatible with this generation of Slot.it modular chassis family.

Common Errors

The most common mistake when working with offset mounts is not checking the backlash after assembly. An overly tight meshing generates heat and premature wear; too loose, and efficiency is lost. Another point to monitor: confirm that the "Hard" version is suitable for your driving style and track type. On technical tracks with many direction changes, the extra rigidity can be an advantage; on tracks where a bit more mechanical cushioning is desired, it may be worth exploring other hardness options within the same EVO6 family.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Hard version and other hardness options in the EVO6 series?

The Hard version offers greater structural rigidity, which reduces flex in the mount under load and makes the transmission more direct. Softer versions better absorb track irregularities, but at the cost of some transmission efficiency. The choice depends on the type of track and driving style.

What does the 1.0 mm offset mean in this mount?

The offset indicates how much the motor's position is laterally displaced from the neutral axis. A 1.0 mm offset allows for adjustment of the meshing between pinion and crown gear, adapting the transmission to different component combinations within the chassis.

Does this mount include bearings or do I need to purchase them separately?

As indicated by the reference SICH119b, the mount already includes bearings. Check the exact contents of the packaging if you have doubts about the number of units included.

Is it compatible with all Slot.it chassis?

It is designed for Slot.it EVO6 family chassis. Not all Slot.it chassis from other generations are compatible, so it is advisable to verify compatibility with your specific platform before purchasing.

Can I combine this mount with motors from other brands?

The mount is sized for standard motors compatible with the Slot.it EVO6 chassis family. Compatibility with motors from other brands will depend on whether their dimensions fit the intended format. We cannot guarantee compatibility with motors whose measurements we have not been able to verify.

The Slot.it SICH119b motor mount is an EVO6 Hard anglewinder pod with 1.0 mm offset and integrated bearings, designed for precision slot car racing. Compatible with Slot.it EVO6 chassis family, it ensures accurate pinion-to-crown meshing, reduced friction, and a rigid drivetrain setup. Ideal for competitive slot racing enthusiasts looking for reliable performance parts from one of the leading manufacturers in the 1/32 slot car scene.
