Super racing flat braids (1 m)

Slot.it SISP19 Braids: precise contact, zero loss

When fine-tuning a slot car to the limit, every component matters. The super racing extra-flat braids from Slot.it (reference SISP19) are designed for those who do not accept compromises in current transfer: extra-flat profile to minimize mechanical resistance on the track, and high conductivity material to ensure energy reaches the motor without unnecessary losses.

Function and performance

The braids are the electrical bridge between the track and the car's motor. A braid with an inadequate section or accumulated wear generates parasitic resistance that translates into power loss, irregular throttle response, and on track, performance differences that cost tenths of a second per lap. The extra-flat design of the SISP19 allows the guide to work with as much freedom as possible, without the braids adding unnecessary friction or pressure on the track.

• Format: 1 metre in length, to be cut to size according to the car and installation.
• Extra-flat profile: reduces mechanical interference and improves guide response.
• High conductivity: clean and constant current transfer.
• Super racing range: aimed at competition setups and fine tuning.

Compatibility and applications

Presented by the metre, the SISP19 allows for exact length adaptation to each setup. They are suitable for most chassis and guides on the slot market where flat braid is used, and fit particularly well in setups on Sport track (Scaleauto, Slot.it). Their extra-flat section makes them especially recommended in chassis where the space between the guide and the bottom of the car is limited.

Installation and preparation

Cut the exact length, bend gently to follow the internal path of the chassis, and ensure that the contact with the terminals is firm and without play: this is how simple the installation is. It is advisable to check the pressure of the braids on the track after the first run, and to replace them as soon as visible wear or loss of conductivity is noticed, as a braid in poor condition is one of the most common causes of erratic behaviour on track.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a standard braid and a super racing extra-flat braid?

Super racing braids are made with higher conductivity materials and have a thinner profile, which reduces both electrical resistance and mechanical interference on the guide. The result is a cleaner throttle response and more predictable behaviour on track.

What type of tracks are they most recommended for?

They are valid for any track system, although their extra-flat profile makes them especially suitable for Sport track (Scaleauto, Slot.it), where the fit between the guide and the track is more precise.

How much should be cut for a standard car?

It depends on the chassis and the internal path, but typically segments of between 3 and 5 cm per side are used. Coming in a 1 metre format, there is plenty of material for several setups or to test different lengths.

How often should they be replaced?

There is no fixed interval: it depends on usage, the track, and the condition of the track. The most practical approach is to visually inspect them at each maintenance and replace them if signs of wear, crushing, or loss of flexibility appear.

Is any special tool required for installation?

A precision scissors for cutting and a screwdriver or pliers to secure the ends to the terminals is sufficient. Some setups use a small bending sheet to give the correct curvature without damaging the braid.
