Motor mount fixing screws

The detail that keeps your motor mount in place: M2.2x4.5mm screws for motor mount fixation

In the preparation of a slot car, the motor mount is one of the elements that most influences power transmission and the stability of the rear end. Ensuring that this mount remains firmly attached to the chassis is not something we should take for granted: the fixing screws are directly responsible for this, and their condition or absence can ruin a race session or undermine hours of tuning.

The SICH106 from Slot.it corresponds to the motor mount fixing screws with a metric of M2.2x4.5mm, a specific format designed to fit precisely in the chassis and mounts of the Slot.it range, ensuring a correct tightening without the risk of damaging the plastic or the chassis material.

Function and performance

A poorly fixed motor mount transmits vibrations, generates play in the crown gear and pinion, and can cause variations in the distance between centres that directly affect the smoothness of operation and the premature wear of the transmission system. Having the correct screws, in good condition and properly tightened, is the foundation of any serious setup.

• Metric M2.2x4.5mm: specific dimensions for the Slot.it chassis and mount range.
• Secure fixation that eliminates play and vibrations in the motor-mount assembly.
• Allows repeated disassemblies and reassemblies without compromising the tightening.
• Original spare part from the brand, ensuring a perfect fit.

Compatibility

These screws are designed for use with mounts and chassis from the Slot.it range. If you have doubts about whether your specific mount uses this metric, the simplest way is to visually compare it with the original screws from the assembly or consult the documentation for your chassis. Since Slot.it offers a very comprehensive and well-documented spare parts catalogue, locating the correct reference for each model is straightforward.

Assembly and preparation

Tightening the mount screws requires the appropriate tool and controlled force: over-tightening can damage the threaded housing, while insufficient tightening generates the unwanted play we have already mentioned. We recommend checking these screws as part of routine maintenance, especially after long running or competition sessions.

Frequently asked questions

How many screws are included in the SICH106 package?

The provided information does not specify the exact quantity per package. We recommend checking it directly on our product page or contacting us before placing your order.

Are they compatible with mounts from other brands?

They are designed for the Slot.it range. Although the metric M2.2x4.5mm may match other systems, we cannot guarantee compatibility with mounts from other brands without prior verification.

Can I reuse them after several disassemblies?

Under normal conditions, yes. However, if you notice that the screw does not tighten firmly or that the thread is damaged, it is prudent to replace it. Keeping a small stock of spare parts like these is a common practice among preparers.

What tool do I need to mount them?

Typically, a very small flat or star screwdriver is required, suitable for model screws. Check the documentation for your Slot.it chassis to confirm the type of head.
