4 x 1/24 transmission rubber

Transmission Rubber Bands 1/24 Tectime: the spare part that keeps your drivetrain alive

With continuous use on the track, transmission rubber bands wear out, lose elasticity, and cause power losses or irregularities in the car's response. This pack of 4 units from Tectime (reference TT424) ensures you always have the necessary replacement to restore the proper functioning of the drivetrain in your 1/24 scale slot cars.

Function and Performance

Transmission rubber bands act as an elastic coupling element between the motor and the drive train. A rubber band in good condition transmits power smoothly and continuously, reduces vibrations, and protects the drivetrain components from impacts or sudden torque changes. When they deteriorate, the car may experience stuttering, loss of acceleration, or abnormal noises.

Replacing them preventively, before they fail completely, is a good practice that extends the lifespan of the drivetrain assembly.

Compatibility

These rubber bands are designed for 1/24 scale slot cars. To confirm the exact compatibility with your specific model, we recommend consulting the manufacturer's documentation or contacting us before installation.

Installation and Preparation

• Carefully remove the worn rubber band to avoid damaging the axle or motor coupling.
• Clean the contact area before placing the new rubber band.
• Ensure it is well seated and centred to avoid vibrations.
• Perform a short run after the change to verify that the drivetrain responds correctly.

Common Mistakes

• Ignoring wear: many drivers change tyres, crowns, and pinions but forget to check the transmission rubber bands. Even slight deterioration affects the car's efficiency.
• Reusing deformed rubber bands: if the rubber band has lost its original shape, it does not regain its properties even if it appears intact visually.
• Installing without cleaning: dirt or remnants of the old rubber band can create play and irregularities in the drivetrain.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many rubber bands are included in this pack?

The TT424 pack includes 4 transmission rubber bands.

How often should I change the transmission rubber bands?

It depends on usage and session intensity. In regular competition, it is advisable to check them periodically and replace them at any sign of deformation, cracking, or loss of elasticity.

How do I know if my transmission rubber band is deteriorated?

The most common symptoms are stuttering during acceleration, abnormal noises in the drivetrain, loss of response, or noticeable vibration in the chassis. A visual inspection may also reveal cracks or deformations.

Are they suitable for competitive use?

Yes, being a spare part from the Tectime brand, they are designed to keep cars in competitive condition. Check your category's regulations if you have doubts about homologation.
