The 0.9 mm tip that makes a difference in every adjustment
In slot tuning, small details have a huge impact. The 0.9 mm Hexagonal (allen) Tip from MITOOS (ref. CXM128P) is designed for those who work with precision and do not tolerate inaccuracies at the workbench. Made to fit directly into the MITOOS Pro aluminium handle, it ensures a firm fit and controlled tightening on the most delicate screws of the chassis.
Function and performance
The 0.9 mm size is one of the most commonly used in precision screws for slot cars, especially in motor mounts, guides, and small structural elements of the chassis. Having the right tip prevents damage to screw heads and allows for the correct torque to be applied without over-tightening, which is critical when working with aluminium or resin parts.
Compatibility
- Designed for the MITOOS Pro aluminium handle.
- Standard fit compatible with the interchangeable tip system of the Pro handle.
- Suitable for 0.9 mm hexagonal screws found in chassis and precision slot components.
Assembly and preparation
Changing the tip on the MITOOS Pro handle is quick and intuitive. Simply remove the current tip and insert the 0.9 mm tip until it is securely seated. From there, the handle transmits the rotation smoothly and without play, which is essential to avoid damaging small-headed screws during adjustment.
Common mistakes
- Using an incorrect size tip: even if the difference is just tenths, an incorrectly sized tip can round off the screw head and ruin the part. Always check the size before tightening.
- Over-tightening: in screws of this scale, wrist sensitivity is key. The Pro aluminium handle helps control the torque, but excessive pressure remains the most common mistake.
- Not having a spare: small diameter tips can wear out or get lost. Having a spare unit prevents interruptions during preparation sessions.
Frequently asked questions
Is this tip compatible with other handles that are not the MITOOS Pro?
According to the manufacturer's information, this tip is designed for the MITOOS Pro aluminium handle. Compatibility with other handles will depend on whether they share the same fitting system; we recommend checking this before using it with tools from other brands.
What screws is the 0.9 mm size commonly used for in slot?
It is a common size in precision screws for chassis, motor mounts, and small structural accessories. Its use is typical in highly tuned cars where very small hexagonal head screws are employed.
Is it sold in a pack or as an individual unit?
The product CXM128P corresponds to 1 hexagonal tip of 0.9 mm, according to the information provided by the manufacturer.
When should the tip be replaced?
When you notice that the tip starts to have play within the screw or no longer transmits rotation accurately. A worn tip can round off the screw head, so it is preferable to change it in advance.
The MITOOS CXM128P is a 0.9 mm hex allen tip designed for the MITOOS Pro aluminium handle, offering precise torque control for slot car chassis setup and fine tuning. An essential workshop tool for slot car hobbyists and club racers working with small-head precision screws.
