American tuning specialist R1 Wurks adds a new set of grade 5 titanium turnbuckles (Ti-6Al-4V) to its catalog, designed for the Team Associated RC10 Factory Team and Factory Team Blue Edition buggies.

44.45% lighter than steel

Claimed to be 44.45% lighter than equivalent steel turnbuckles, these parts feature cold-rolled threads for extra structural strength and a 4mm square adjustment flat for easy tuning. A built-in marking also lets racers instantly spot the reverse-thread ends, avoiding assembly mistakes.

A complete set, three finishes

The set includes three 48mm turnbuckles, two 38mm, two 33mm and one 27mm (3.5mm thread), all machined in-house by R1 Wurks using Swiss-precision processes. Racers can choose between three finishes: natural titanium, blue or bronze, to personalize their RC10 chassis.
