This TS-M04M/V1 titanium screw set is specified for maintenance and tuning use on the Tamiya M04M chassis. It replaces selected steel fasteners with titanium alternatives to reduce rotating and unsprung mass while enhancing corrosion resistance in regular running and competitive environments.
Install using precise drive tools to avoid cam-out and preserve head form. Limit torque to minimise thread galling on titanium-to-steel interfaces and apply anaerobic threadlocker only where loosening is likely; excessive compound can complicate later disassembly. Verify thread engagement and mating component geometry before final torquing to ensure mechanical integrity.
From a setup perspective, swapping to titanium fasteners is a targeted, incremental upgrade for tuners seeking marginal weight reduction and better environmental durability. The kit is intended for accurate assembly, periodic servicing, and track preparation rather than for altering chassis load paths or structural elements.
Confirm head types, lengths, and mating conditions on the Tamiya M04M before fitting TS-M04M/V1 screws, and follow light torque settings and selective threadlocker use to protect threads and secure joints.
