This 18-piece bearing kit is intended as a precision upgrade for the Tamiya TA05 platform, replacing standard bushings to reduce rotational resistance and improve component harmonics. For race setups where drivetrain fidelity matters, the 3RACING TA05-27 bearings provide repeatable rolling characteristics and help maintain consistent lap times over multiple runs.
Ball bearings reduce parasitic losses at rotating joints, which can translate to more consistent throttle response and less heat buildup in transmission assemblies. Tuners will find the lower friction useful when dialling motor timing and gearing for specific track conditions.
Ensure seating surfaces on the TA05 are clean and true before install to avoid misalignment. Press bearings squarely to prevent race damage and verify axial play and spin quality before track use. Regular inspection and light lubrication appropriate to race conditions will preserve bearing life and protect mating parts.
