Competition Grade Graphite Battery Mount for RC18T

Engineered for racers, the 3Racing Graphite Battery Plate matches the Team Associated RC18T tray dimensions to deliver a stiffer mounting plane and reduced mass. The design focuses on repeatable geometry and stable pack positioning to support consistent lap times.

Fit Precision and Setup Consistency

The plate aligns to factory mounting points with tight tolerances to minimise slop and maintain weight distribution under dynamic load. This stability helps drivers hold suspension and steering settings without battery-induced variation.

Tuning Benefits of Graphite Upgrades

Graphite offers a favourable stiffness-to-weight ratio that suits tuning for traction and mid-corner balance. Use this plate alongside spring and damper adjustments to fine tune chassis behaviour without adding unnecessary weight.

What is the recommended torque for mounting fasteners?

Use moderate torque to avoid crushing the graphite surfaces; fingertip tight plus a small fraction on a torque driver provides repeatable clamping without stress concentrations.

How does this plate affect chassis flex tuning?

Adding a stiffer battery plate reduces local flex and shifts overall chassis response; expect crisper turn-in and adjust roll control settings accordingly to maintain traction balance.

Are there preferred battery sizes for peak performance?

Standard performance packs used in RC18T racing fit well; for optimal handling maintain consistent pack mass and placement across runs rather than switching sizes between sessions.
