GPM Racing Aluminium Battery Hold-Down - 3pcs Set for Traxxas Rustler VXL 37076-3 (RUS40126)

Precision aluminium battery hold-down for Rustler platforms

This aftermarket hold-down kit is a CNC-friendly design offering a compact aluminium clamp to secure battery packs in 1/10 TRAXXAS Rustler VXL vehicles. Engineered to reduce lateral and longitudinal battery movement under hard driving, the assembly also provides an improved passive thermal path over standard plastic retainers. The kit is supplied as a 3-piece set engineered around the original mounting layout referenced by part number 6726.

Fit this low-profile aluminium clamp as a direct upgrade to worn plastic retainers or when a firmer mechanical retention is required. It provides a passive conduction path and should not be considered an active cooling component. Confirm the original 6726 retainer dimensions and screw locations on your chassis before ordering, as later Rustler production runs may have revised retainer lengths and part numbers.

Packing includes

• Battery Hold-Down - 1pcs
• Battery Hold-Down Stabilizer - 1pcs
• Stainless Steel Top Threaded Screw M3x24.5 - 1pcs

Compatible Models

• RUSTLER 4X4 VXL 67076-4

Prior to installation, verify the clamp length and screw position against the original 6726 retainer to ensure proper fitment; this item is intended to match that original configuration.

What measurement points determine compatibility?

Measure the distance between the battery tray anchor points and compare the retainer screw centre-to-centre spacing against the 6726 reference to confirm compatibility.

How does aluminium affect thermal transfer?

Aluminium offers higher thermal conductivity than plastic, enabling marginally better passive heat transfer from the pack to the clamp, though it does not actively cool the cells.

Are thread specifications standard M3?

Yes, the kit includes a stainless steel M3x24.5 top threaded screw and is designed for standard M3 engagement in the factory mounting points.

Any installation recommendations for longevity?

Ensure mating surfaces are clean, hand-thread the screw initially, and tighten to a firm but not excessive torque to preserve thread integrity and maximise clamp life. Write Product Review Please sign in your account before you can write any review. Sign In Close
