3Racing ZX5-25 Titanium Pivot Ball Technical Overview

The 3Racing ZX5-25 Titanium Pivot Ball Set is engineered to reinforce the suspension pivot points on the Kyosho Lazer ZX-5 chassis. Precision machining and material choice focus on repeatable geometry and reduced component wear under competitive loads.

Material and Performance Benefits

Titanium provides a strong, low mass solution that improves fatigue resistance at pivot interfaces. For racers looking to maintain consistent handling over many runs, these pivot balls reduce the rate of wear on mating parts and support stable suspension kinematics.

Setup and Tuning Notes

When fitting the set, verify alignment and check for smooth articulation through the full travel range. Small setup tweaks to camber and damping can optimise the car once the titanium pivots are installed, especially for high grip tracks.

What checks should I perform after installation?

Inspect pivot movement for smoothness, confirm fastener torque, and run a short test session to confirm no binding or unexpected play. Recheck fasteners after initial laps.

Are these compatible with aluminium steering cups and hubs?

They are compatible in most setups, but confirm mating surfaces and tolerances. Using parts from the same performance family will reduce the chance of uneven wear.

Do these require special maintenance for race use?

Routine inspection and cleaning after dusty or wet events is recommended. Torque checks and occasional lubrication of mating surfaces will maintain performance.

Will fitment affect cornering balance?

The upgrade reduces wear and can sharpen steering precision, which may alter perceived balance. Fine tuning of suspension settings may be required to reach the desired handling balance.
