Avant Slot Tipping Screws: the Small Detail that Makes a Difference in Setup

In the world of 1/24 slot racing, small fastening components are as important as any other part of the assembly. This pack of 10 plastic thread 2x6 tipping screws from Avant Slot is designed for those who pay attention to every detail of their car's assembly and setup, ensuring correct and durable connections without damaging the plastic elements of the body or chassis.

Function and Features

Tipping screws are commonly used to secure components that require some freedom of angular movement, avoiding unnecessary stress on plastic parts. The specific thread for plastic allows for a firm and controlled grip without the need for additional metal inserts, facilitating repeated assembly and disassembly during preparation sessions.

Compatibility and Assembly

These screws are designed for use in 1/24 scale slot cars from Avant Slot, being especially suitable for securing body parts, guides, mounts, or other plastic elements where a gentle and progressive tightening is required. It is always advisable to perform the assembly with a screwdriver appropriate to the size of the head, applying just the right amount of force to avoid stripping the plastic thread.

Common Mistakes

The most common mistake when using plastic thread screws is over-tightening, which can irreversibly damage the housing. We recommend tightening until the part is secure, without forcing it. If the hole has lost grip after several assemblies, there are modelling adhesives that can temporarily restore the thread before seeking a permanent solution.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these screws suitable for other 1/24 scale slot cars that are not Avant Slot?

They may be compatible with other brands that use the same size and type of thread, but we recommend checking the diameter and thread pitch of the original housing before using them in cars from other brands.

How many units are included in the pack?

The pack includes 10 units of 2x6 plastic thread tipping screws.

Is it necessary to use any adhesive or thread locker with these screws?

Under normal conditions, it is not necessary. For applications where vibration may loosen the connection, a small amount of low-strength thread locker can be helpful, also facilitating later disassembly.

What tool is used for proper assembly?

Use a screwdriver that is the exact size for the screw head to avoid damaging both the head and the housing in the plastic. The tightening should be manual and controlled, never with power tools on this type of material.
