1.3mm screwdriver torque

The right torque, no more, no less: 1.3 mm torque screwdriver for slot

In the setup of a slot car, the difference between a well-tightened screw and one that is over-tightened can mean losing parts mid-race or damaging delicate components. The Sloting Plus SP141002 torque screwdriver precisely addresses that issue: applying the correct torque consistently, without relying on pulse or momentary experience.

Features and function

• 1.3 mm hexagonal tip, designed for M2.5 allen screws, one of the most common sizes in chassis, motor mounts, and fixings in competition slot cars.
• Torque mechanism: transmits the appropriate torque and prevents excess force that can damage threads or plastic and resin parts.
• Bag with 1 unit of torque screwdriver plus 1 free 1.5 mm allen key, expanding adjustment possibilities on the workbench.
• Reference: SP141002.

Assembly and preparation

Its use is especially recommended when assembling and disassembling the motor, securing the guide, adjusting the mount, or tightening any threaded element with M2.5 screws. Simply apply the screwdriver until the torque mechanism gives way: at that moment the screw has reached the correct torque and there is no need to insist. This protects both the screw thread and the receiving part, which is critical in high-precision resin or plastic chassis.

Who is this screwdriver for?

Designed for both the club preparer seeking speed and repeatability in the pits and the enthusiast who wants to treat their cars with the care they deserve. If you frequently prepare cars or simply do not want to risk stripping a thread on an expensive chassis, this type of tool becomes a regular part of the workshop toolkit.
