JConcepts launches titanium screw kits for the Team Associated RC10B7.1

# What was released

JConcepts introduced two titanium screw kits designed for the Team Associated RC10B7.1 (and RC10B7.1D). One is an upper "top hat" style set with 91 pieces. The other is a 32-piece lower set made primarily with low-head flat-head cap screws. Both kits come in two anodized finishes: burnt blue and stealth black.

# Why these kits exist

The company positions titanium as a way to trim weight while keeping durable fasteners machined to tight tolerances. The upper set uses a distinctive top-hat hex head rather than standard button or cap heads. The design was developed and tested over time and has been used on notable builds named in the announcement.

# What's in each kit

• Top hat screws in various sizes
• Anodized and titanium flat-head screws for upper-side build locations
• Additional screws for setup changes and front wing adjustments
• Items separated by size for location matching

• Low-head flat-head cap screws in multiple lengths used around the lower build
• Two JHCS screws included for the rear of the chassis
• 3mm thread base to work in plastic and aluminum suspension holes
• Items separated by size for location matching

# Colors, finishes, and notes on appearance

• Burnt blue anodizing and stealth black anodizing are available for both kits.

• Silver highlighting appears throughout the screw heads in the upper set to contrast the anodized finishes.

# Installation and durability guidance

• The company specifically recommends using the kit steel M3x16mm SHCS when installing the steering bell-cranks to the front bulkhead. A screw for that location is not included because a standard SHCS is preferred for impact strength.
• For screws used in aluminum, use a light amount of thread-locking compound (not included).
• Using high-quality hex drivers and wrench sets (examples given by the manufacturer) will prolong screw life and simplify maintenance.

# Practical takeaway for racers

If you want lighter fasteners for the RC10B7.1's upper and lower assemblies and prefer a coordinated aesthetic, these kits provide a large selection organized by size for straightforward swap-in. Keep a standard steel M3x16mm SHCS on hand for the steering bell-crank location, use quality drivers, and apply light thread locker where screws penetrate aluminum.
