Fine-tune Your F103 Chassis with Teflon Pads

The Tamiya 53149 Teflon Friction Pad Set is a purpose-made upgrade for the F103 chassis used in Tamiya Formula 1 kits. The low-friction Teflon material smooths movement and resists wear, helping racers and weekend tuners get steadier handling session after session.

Engineered for Predictable Control

Designed to replace the stock D2 and D7 pads on the F103 chassis, these Teflon pads reduce friction inside the suspension mount points and improve steering feedback. The reduced drag helps maintain consistent response over multiple runs without altering core geometry.

Package Contents

  • 2 Outer Teflon Friction Pads (Replaces Stock Part D2)
  • 1 Middle Teflon Friction Pad (Replaces Stock Part D7)

Will these pads fit every F103 chassis layout?

They are made to match the standard F103 parts layout. If your car uses the stock mounting points for D2 and D7 these pads will fit, but check heavily modified or third party chassis before fitting.

Do I need special tools to install the pads?

Installation is straightforward using basic hobby tools. You normally remove the old pads and refit the new Teflon pieces without glue; a small screwdriver and patience are usually enough.

How do these pads affect long term maintenance?

Teflon resists wear so you should see less pad degradation over time. Inspect for contamination and clean periodically to keep sliding surfaces consistent and prolong service life.
