Precision Tungsten Upgrade for FF03 Chassis

The Tamiya 54226 3/32 Tungsten Ball Set provides a straightforward way to refine your FF03 chassis balance, offering 12 accurately sized balls to help tune weight distribution and improve on-track stability. This set is well suited to hobbyists who want to tweak handling without heavy modifications.

Benefits of Tungsten Balls

Tungsten brings a higher mass in a smaller volume compared to standard steel parts, which helps concentrate weight where you need it for better cornering and reduced roll. Using these balls can result in a more predictable feel through sequences and chicanes.

Fitment and Practical Use

Primarily intended for the Tamiya FF03 layout, these 3/32 tungsten balls also fit other models that accept 3/32 sizing. They are a simple upgrade for drivers aiming for finer balance control while keeping the original chassis geometry intact.

Positioning depends on your handling goals: front placement increases steering bite, rear placement stabilises traction, and centre placements lower polar moment for quicker transitions. Test small changes one at a time.
They can be used either as replacements or as supplementary ballast. Match sizes and clearances first, then swap incrementally to evaluate handling differences.
Keep them clean and free of grit; a light coat of suitable lubricant on contact surfaces prevents corrosion and ensures smooth operation. Inspect for wear during routine maintenance.
