Small detail, big difference: Slot.it brass clips for LMP guide
In the world of competitive slot racing, details that may seem minor at first glance are what make the difference between a car that responds accurately and one that loses contact in the most demanding corners. The Brass Clips for LMP Guide from Slot.it (reference SISP37) are exactly that type of component: discreet, specific, and essential.
Function and performance
These brass clips are designed to ensure the correct attachment of the braids to the Slot.it LMP guide. Brass is a common material for this type of part due to its good electrical conductivity, resistance to corrosion, and ability to maintain mechanical tension after multiple running sessions.
A worn or poorly adjusted clip can cause micro-cuts in the power supply, traction losses, and erratic car behaviour, especially in high-speed sections or during elevation changes. Replacing them preventively, or when the first signs of wear are detected, is a common practice among the most meticulous preparers.
Compatibility
These clips are specifically designed for the Slot.it LMP guide, making their installation straightforward and without adaptations. They are the correct choice if you are working with Slot.it chassis that use this type of guide, both in Sport track configurations and on mixed tracks.
Installation and preparation
The replacement process is simple for any enthusiast with basic slot car preparation experience. Just remove the guide, free the braids from the old clip, place the new clip ensuring it is well seated, and reconnect the braids. It is advisable to check that the contact is uniform on both sides before remounting the guide onto the chassis.

Common mistakes
One of the most common mistakes is ignoring the condition of these clips during routine maintenance. With use, brass can fatigue and lose the necessary tension to keep the braids in optimal position. It is also common to confuse them with clips from other guides in the Slot.it catalogue: ensure that reference SISP37 corresponds to the specific LMP guide fitted to your car before placing an order.
Frequently asked questions
Which Slot.it guide are these clips compatible with?
The SISP37 clips are designed for the Slot.it LMP guide. They are not interchangeable with other guides in the brand's catalogue without first verifying compatibility.
When should the guide clips be replaced?
It is advisable to check them during each maintenance session. If the car shows intermittent contact losses, irregular electrical response, or the braids are not securely held, it is time to replace them.
Can I use these clips on universal track systems like Scalextric or Ninco?
The clip itself does not depend on the type of track, but on the guide. If your car is fitted with the Slot.it LMP guide, it will work correctly on both Sport track (Scaleauto, Slot.it) and universal track (Scalextric, Ninco), as long as the rest of the setup is properly adjusted.
Are they sold in individual blister packs or in packs?
The available information does not specify the exact quantity included in the blister. We recommend checking directly on the store listing or contacting us before placing your order.
