GPM Racing Aluminium Motor Mount Plate with Heat Sink Fins - 9pcs Set for Losi 1/6 Super Baja Rey 4x4 (SB018)

Precision motor mount plate with heat sink fins

This aftermarket motor mount plate is intended for Team Losi SUPER BAJA and is supplied as a 9pcs set combining a 6061-T6 aluminium plate with stainless steel fasteners and stabilising shims. The component replaces the standard motor clamp area to produce a stiffer mounting surface while the finmed profile promotes passive heat dispersion from the motor during normal operation.

The kit provides the main motor plate and matched hardware sized to the original mounting points so installation uses the existing motor screw holes and standard hand tools such as a hex driver. Stabilising shims are supplied to sit beneath screw heads, tightening the assembly when the motor is torqued to reduce play and support consistent gear mesh under load.

Finned geometry raises the exposed surface area for improved passive cooling during runs, assisting setup decisions such as motor timing, gearing and ESC temperature monitoring. The 6061-T6 plate offers enhanced resistance to stress compared with thinner stamped parts and helps maintain pinion and spur alignment under torque.

Specifications

• Item Motor mount plate set, 9 pcs
• Material 6061-T6 aluminium main body with stainless steel hardware
• Model Number SB018

Engineered for improved mounting rigidity and passive cooling, the SB018 fits with supplied hardware to deliver a reliable motor seating solution.

What is the correct torque practice when fitting the plate?

Tighten motor screws to a moderate torque that secures the motor without overcompressing the shims; recheck after a few runs to ensure screws remain secure.

How does the plate influence thermal performance?

The finned profile increases surface area for passive heat transfer, lowering steady state motor temperature and supporting repeatable ESC thermal readings.

Are the supplied hardware dimensions compatible with stock parts?

The kit includes screws and shims matched to the original mounting points, allowing direct replacement without modification for the intended chassis.

What maintenance checks are recommended after installation?

Inspect mounting screws and shims after initial runs, verify gear mesh remains consistent, and confirm no new vibrations are present that could indicate improper seating. Write Product Review Please sign in your account before you can write any review. Sign In Close
