F1 ProSpeed Hard Tyres

Hard compound for those who demand consistency on every lap

The F1 ProSpeed Hard Tyres from Sloting Plus (ref. SWPS1H/F1) arrive with a hardness of 28 Shore, the value that defines a hard compound within the brand's spare parts catalogue. This profile is aimed at F1 profile tyres, designed to fit 1/32 scale single-seater cars running on plastic tracks.

Features and function

• Hardness: 28 Shore — compound classified as Hard.
• Profile: F1, specific for 1/32 slot Formula 1 cars.
• Manufacturer: Sloting Plus, specialists in spare parts and preparation tools for slot.
• Reference: SWPS1H/F1.

When to choose a Hard compound?

A high hardness tyre, such as this 28 Shore, maintains its geometric shape better under lateral pressure and heat generated on fast tracks or during long sessions. It does not deform easily, resulting in more predictable and consistent behaviour over many laps. It is a common choice in club racing when the track is well rubbered or when the aim is to reduce wear and extend the lifespan of the tyres.

Softer compounds offer greater initial grip but may degrade sooner. The ProSpeed Hard is the option for those prioritising durability and consistency over maximum cold grip.

Mounting and preparation

As with any slot tyre, careful mounting on the rim is key to achieving maximum performance. It is recommended to check concentricity after mounting and correct if necessary, especially in competition-oriented setups. Sloting Plus provides specific tools for this process that facilitate precise adjustment.

Ideal for…

• 1/32 scale Formula 1 cars with compatible rim profile.
• Club racers seeking consistency and durability in long races.
• Fast or well rubbered tracks where the hard compound works in its optimal range.
• Preparers wanting to compare performance between different compounds in the ProSpeed range.

Considerations

Before purchasing these tyres, check that the diameter and width of the F1 profile are compatible with your single-seater's rim. Sloting Plus offers different sizes within its range, so it is advisable to review the exact measurements in the manufacturer's technical sheet or consult with us if you have questions about compatibility with your specific car.

Frequently asked questions

What does 28 Shore mean in a slot tyre?

Shore is the unit that measures the hardness of the rubber. The higher the Shore value, the harder the compound. A 28 Shore is considered a high value within the range of slot tyres, which implies less deformation under load and greater durability, at the cost of slightly less initial grip compared to softer compounds.

Is it compatible with any 1/32 scale Formula 1 car?

The F1 profile is designed for 1/32 single-seaters, but compatibility depends on the inner diameter of the tyre and the width of the rim of each model. Check the exact measurements of the tyre and compare them with your car's rims before placing an order.

Do I need to true the tyres after mounting them?

In recreational use, it is not always essential, but in competition, it is recommended to true them to ensure perfect concentricity. Sloting Plus has specific adjustment tools for this process.

When is it advisable to use Hard over a softer compound?

The Hard compound is preferable when the track has a lot of accumulated grip, in long races where wear is a factor, or when greater stability in fast corners is sought. On new or low-grip tracks, a softer compound may offer better initial response.

Does Sloting Plus manufacture these tyres or distribute them?

Sloting Plus is the manufacturer of this line of spare parts. The ProSpeed range is part of its own catalogue of components for the preparation and adjustment of slot cars.
