Rubber Tyre 20.2x10.6mm

The Slot.it tyre SI-PT1323C1: precision rubber in C1 compound

Within the Slot.it consumables catalogue, tyres occupy a central place in the preparation of any competitive car. This model, with reference SI-PT1323C1 and dimensions 20.2 x 10.6 mm, corresponds to the 1323 tread in C1 compound, the standard rubber range from the Italian brand.

Features and function

The C1 compound from Slot.it is formulated to provide solid and predictable grip on Sport track layouts —compatible with Scaleauto and Slot.it— although its performance is also highly appreciated in mixed configurations. The C1 rubber is particularly suitable for extended practice sessions and club use, where consistency throughout the race is as important as peak grip.

• Dimensions: 20.2 mm outer diameter × 10.6 mm width
• Compound: C1 (Slot.it standard rubber)
• Tread: 1323
• Brand: Slot.it (ref. SI-PT1323C1)

Mounting and preparation

As with any rubber tyre for slot cars, the mounting process makes a difference in the final behaviour of the car. Before installation, it is advisable to check that the rim diameter is appropriate for the rubber to be well tensioned, without play or deformation. Once mounted, truing on the car's axle —with a hand or electric lathe— ensures perfect concentricity and eliminates any vibration during operation.

For optimal grip from the first moment, clean the tyre surface with a dry cloth or with the traction compound you usually use at your club. Avoid oils or lubricants near the rubber, as they would drastically reduce grip.

Compatibility and applications

This tyre is designed to fit the rims and chassis of the Slot.it range that accept this specific size. Before ordering, consult the diagram of your car or the official Slot.it listing to confirm that the 1323 tread in C1 compound corresponds to your rim reference. The millimetric precision of the Slot.it catalogue makes it essential not to interchange references without prior verification.

Ideal for…

• Club racers looking for a reliable and easy-to-prepare replacement tyre.
• Enthusiasts preparing their Slot.it cars for championships on Sport track.
• Those who want to keep the car in factory condition with original brand spare parts.

Frequently asked questions

What does the C1 compound mean in Slot.it tyres?

The C1 compound is Slot.it's standard rubber, designed for versatile and durable use. It offers good grip on clean tracks and a progressive wear, making it easier to control the car during long sessions.

How do I know if this tyre is compatible with my car?

Check the exploded diagram of your Slot.it model or the parts listing on the official brand website. Each chassis and rim has a specific tyre reference associated; not all sizes are interchangeable even if they appear similar.

Is it necessary to true the tyres before using them?

It is not strictly mandatory, but it is highly recommended for competitive use. Truing ensures perfect concentricity of the tyre on the axle, eliminating vibrations and improving contact with the track.

Can I use these tyres on universal track systems (Scalextric, Ninco)?

The tyre itself is independent of the track system; what determines compatibility is the car and the rim on which it is mounted. If your Slot.it car runs on universal track, this tyre will work as long as the rim dimensions are correct.

How long do these tyres last under normal club use?

The lifespan depends on the type of track, motor power, and frequency of use. In general, the C1 compound is more durable than soft competition compounds, making it a reasonable option for regular club sessions.
