This Urethane belt provides high durability under harsh conditions such as driving on dusty or dirty tracks, high temperatures or long finals. The belt teeth are hard and highly accurate offering good compatibility with the tooth profile and material of the pulleys helping to maintain excellent drive efficiency.
Bearing support rigidity has been greatly improved by increasing the roundness of the bearing cavity area as much as possible using a special molding process that has never been used before. This provides a higher consistency of rear traction.
A new lineup of pinion gears for the IF18-2 with a hard coating on 7075 aluminium material. Offered in all teeth sizes to fine tune gear ratio according to the engine and track layout.
An all new front one way set featuring larger one way bearings for improved durability. The timing of the drive transmission to the front tires has also been changed resulting in milder and more easy to drive characteristics. The overall weight has been reduced to 24g, 4g lighter than the original.
This new option part for IF18 is a set of 4 large diameter aluminium counter sink washers M4x12mm. Used for fixing the engine mounts to the chassis the flat surface means a super secure fitting and sufficient range of movement for all gear mesh. They can also be used with other 1/8 scale on road models.
This tension roller flange prevents the middle belt from accidentally falling off in high load situations such as high temps or extreme high traction. Fixed in place so as not to increase rotating mass of the roller it is also shaped to prevent any step between the belt and the flange. Offered in black and titian colour. (Can also be used for IF15. Please use the included M3x15mm screw.)
Body stiffener for 1/8 body (Only large type for rear)
The new SS version is more durable than previous gear housings due to a review of the manufacturing process, including the shape and materials used.
As the name "SS => Strong Support" suggests, the spur gear support is increased, minimizing the chance of stripping gears.
