Guide spacers SC thickness 0.25mm

Precision to the tenth of a millimetre: Scaleauto SC guide spacers

In the preparation of a slot car, great results often come from the smallest adjustments. The SC-1651B spacers from Scaleauto have a thickness of 0.25 mm and are specifically designed for SC guides in 1/32 scale. Their function is to accurately regulate the height at which the guide operates within the slot, one of the parameters that most influences the stability and efficiency of the braids.

Function and performance

The height of the guide relative to the chassis determines how the car sits in the slot and how it behaves in corners. Excessive play can cause unwanted lateral movement; a guide that is too tight can generate friction and loss of speed. With these 0.25 mm spacers, it is possible to find that balance point with a precision that more generic solutions do not offer.

• Thickness: 0.25 mm
• Compatible with SC guides in 1/32
• Allow adjustment of the working height of the guide over the slot
• Facilitate tuning without the need for machining

Compatibility

These spacers are designed to be used with Scaleauto SC guides in 1/32 scale cars. They are especially useful on tracks with Sport slot (such as those from Scaleauto or Slot.it), although their height regulation function can be utilised in various preparation contexts.

Assembly and preparation

The assembly is straightforward: they are placed between the guide and the chassis to slightly raise the working position of the guide. Combining them with spacers of other thicknesses from the Scaleauto catalogue allows for achieving the exact adjustment that each car and track require. It is a common practice in the preparation of cars for club competition, where guide height regulations are strict and the working margin is minimal.

Frequently asked questions

What is the purpose of a guide spacer?

It serves to modify the height at which the guide operates within the slot. By adjusting this parameter, the vertical and lateral movement of the car is controlled, which directly affects the stability and the contact of the braids with the slot.

Which guides are these spacers compatible with?

They are designed for Scaleauto SC guides in 1/32 scale. Check the technical data sheet of your guide to confirm compatibility before assembly.

Can I combine several spacers to achieve different heights?

Yes. By stacking spacers of different thicknesses from the Scaleauto catalogue, you can obtain the exact value you need. This is the usual method of working in competition preparation.

How many units are included in the pack?

The information on units per pack is not specified in the manufacturer's data. We recommend checking it directly on the product sheet or contacting us before placing the order.
