CB RACE 0.25 copper braid with dispenser

The Sloting Plus CB RACE 0.25 Copper Braid: Clean and Reliable Contact from the First Millimetre

When it comes to maintaining good current transmission between the track and the motor, the braid makes a difference. The CB RACE 0.25 from Sloting Plus is made of copper, with a thickness of 0.25 mm and a width of 3.4 mm, measurements designed to achieve stable and efficient contact in the slot car guide.

Features and Highlights

• Material: high conductivity copper.
• Thickness: 0.25 mm.
• Width: 3.4 mm.
• Length: 2 metres per pack.
• Included dispenser: practical case that keeps the braid tidy, tangle-free, and ready to cut to size.

Function and Performance

The copper braid is the contact element that collects current from the track and transmits it to the motor through the guide. A braid in good condition — well tensioned, without bends or excessive wear — reduces electrical resistance and improves controller response. The CB RACE range from Sloting Plus is aimed precisely at those seeking that extra level of reliability on track, both in club sessions and in competition preparations.

The thickness of 0.25 mm places it in a versatile range: robust enough to withstand long sessions, yet flexible enough to adapt well to the guide and maintain constant pressure on the track without adding unnecessary stiffness.

Installation and Preparation

The replacement process is straightforward: remove the worn braid, cut the new one to the appropriate length according to the guide's housing, and secure it with the system that each chassis comes with from the factory or with a small securing screw. It is also advisable to check the condition of the terminals and the pressure of the guide before each session to get the most out of the new braid.

The Dispenser: A Detail Appreciated in the Workshop

The dispenser case that accompanies this braid is not just a simple aesthetic accessory. It allows you to extract the exact length needed at any moment, preventing the roll from tangling, bending, or ending up in a mess in the workshop drawer. For those working with multiple cars at once or making frequent preparations, having the braid always accessible and in perfect condition is a real time saver.
