Description
Product Overview
The REDS Racing DixDexS clutch shim set is a precision‑engineered collection of ten shims designed specifically for radio‑controlled crawling vehicles. Each shim measures 5x7x0.1mm, a size that fits the tight tolerances of high‑performance clutch assemblies. Constructed from hardened steel alloy, the shims provide a balance of strength and flexibility, ensuring consistent torque transfer while minimizing wear on mating components. The set is packaged in a compact, durable case that protects the shims during storage and transport, making it an ideal addition to any RC enthusiast’s toolbox.
Usage
These shims are tailored for use in RC crawlers that tackle challenging off‑road environments, including rocky trails, steep inclines, and uneven terrain. By installing the shims between the clutch plates, users can fine‑tune the engagement point, achieving smoother power delivery and better control during low‑speed maneuvers. The shims are also suitable for other radio‑controlled vehicles that require precise clutch adjustments, such as rock crawlers, desert trucks, and competition‑grade buggies. Installation is straightforward: simply remove the existing shim, insert the new REDS shim, and re‑assemble the clutch housing. No additional tools or modifications are required.

FAQ
What size shims does my RC crawler need?
Most modern RC crawlers use shims in the 5x7mm range with a thickness of 0.1mm. Check your vehicle’s service manual for exact specifications, but the REDS DixDexS shims are compatible with the majority of popular models.
Can I install the shims myself?
Yes. Installation requires only basic hand tools. Remove the existing shim, place the new REDS shim in the same position, and re‑assemble the clutch housing. Detailed step‑by‑step instructions are included in the package.
How many shims are included in the package?
The set contains ten individual shims, providing enough spares for multiple vehicles or future replacements.
Do the shims affect the overall weight of my vehicle?
The shims add a negligible amount of weight—less than 0.1 oz per shim—so performance impact is limited to improved clutch function without noticeable mass increase.
What warranty does REDS Racing offer?
All REDS Racing products come with a limited one‑year warranty covering manufacturing defects. If you encounter any issues, contact our support team for a replacement or refund.
