Consistent Thread Form with 3Racing ST-026/M3

For racers and tuners who demand predictable results, the 3Racing ST-026/M3 produces uniform M3 x 0.5 threads that help maintain component alignment and repeatable clamping force. Its form is suitable for frequent servicing during setup cycles.

Setup and Tuning Advantages

Accurate threads ensure torque settings remain consistent and reduce variation when swapping components during a race weekend. Use controlled feeds and recommended lubricants when tapping alloy or composite parts to preserve part geometry.

Workshop Practices for Best Results

Operate the ST-026/M3 with a dedicated tap wrench and monitor chip evacuation to prevent work hardening or thread damage. Clean, well-formed threads support secure fastenings and more reliable suspension and steering response.

Yes, the tool is intended for repeated use in tuning environments, provided correct tapping technique and chip removal are followed.
Cleaner, properly formed threads reduce torque variation and help maintain fixed geometry when parts are removed and refitted during setup.
Keep a calibrated tap wrench, use light lubricant for metal parts, and inspect threads after tapping to ensure consistent assembly during events.
