Tamiya 15497 HG Carbon Reinforcing Plate - fits 13mm and 19mm rollers

The Tamiya 15497 HG Carbon Reinforcing Plate is built for Mini 4WD hobbyists who want to stiffen roller mounts without adding bulk. Machined from durable carbon fibre, these plates give consistent support for high speed running and repeated impacts.

Compatibility and setup markers

These plates accept both 13mm and 19mm rollers and include printed Tamiya branding plus diameter guides to help you position rollers accurately. The markings make fine tuning quicker during practice sessions.

Track performance and handling

Using carbon reinforcement can reduce flex at roller points, improving corner stability and helping you carry speed through chicanes. They work with Mini 4WD and Mini 4WD PRO chassis, though some chassis or body trimming may be needed for larger roller placements.

Installation and included hardware

The set arrives with the required screws and washers for a straightforward fit. Note that specific roller combinations or low-profile bodies might require minor chassis adjustments to achieve the best clearance.

Yes. The plates mount to standard Mini 4WD and Mini 4WD PRO setups, but certain roller sizes or positions may need small body or chassis modifications to clear the bodywork.
Choosing 13mm tends to keep the centre of gravity lower and improves responsiveness, while 19mm can add stability at speed. Test both to see which suits your track and driving style.
Yes, screws and washers are included for standard mounting. Keep extra small spares handy in case of track-side repairs.
Depending on your body shell and chosen roller positions, minor trimming or relocating of mounting points may be necessary to avoid contact during suspension movement or high-speed runs.
