Precision Upgrade for the XRAY NT18 Engine
The XRAY NT18 engine is celebrated for its engineering accuracy and dependable performance. This XRAY 612001 CNC-machined piston, sleeve and connecting rod set is crafted to match those standards, offering tight tolerances and consistent operation for committed hobbyists and club racers.
How CNC Work Improves Fit
CNC machining produces components with exact dimensions to ensure smooth mating of piston, sleeve and rod. The pre-assembled CNC parts reduce play and uneven wear, which helps lower friction and supports steady power delivery during long running sessions.
Benefits of ABC Sleeve Construction
The sleeve uses ABC construction - Aluminum, Brass and Chrome - to balance strength and heat transfer. That material mix helps the assembly dissipate heat better and resist wear, leading to steadier temperatures and reliable performance under race conditions.
Installation and Tuning Pointers
When fitting the XRAY 612001 set to your XRAY NT18, start with a clean workspace and inspect parts for debris. Follow standard assembly checks, then monitor engine temperature while trimming the needle to tune mixture. Regular inspection and cleaning will extend service life.
How the NT18 Compares in Practice
Against peers in its class, the XRAY NT18 paired with the CNC 612001 set stands out for durable tolerances and predictable behaviour. For drivers focused on consistency rather than flashy gains, this combination is a practical upgrade.
