Torsion Bar – Mini Sprint – 26" Long – Tubular – 0.675" Dia Rate
Performance & Fitment
Application: Mini Sprint Race Cars
Length: 26”
Diameter: 0.675”
Construction: Tubular (Hollow). This design removes the dead weight from the center of the bar, allowing the suspension to react faster to track changes.
Tuning Profile: The 0.675" tubular bar is a popular choice for the Right Rear on mid-grip tracks. It provides the necessary "bite" to drive off the corner while offering a more compliant, "lively" feel than a solid bar of the same diameter.
Material: Solid high-strength alloy steel tubing, selected for its high tensile strength and ability to withstand rapid torsional cycles.
Precision Manufacturing: Precision-ground and honed to maintain a perfectly consistent wall thickness. This is critical for ensuring that the spring rate remains uniform throughout the bar's twist.
Heat Treatment: Advanced heat-treating process maximizes "memory" retention, preventing the bar from sagging or "taking a set" after heavy racing loads.
Finish: Precision-machined splines ensure a secure, no-slop fit into torsion arms and stops, maintaining accurate timing and indexing.
❌ Solid vs. Tubular Rate Discrepancy: A 0.675" tubular bar is not equivalent in stiffness to a 0.675" solid bar. Removing the center material makes the tubular version softer. If you are replacing a solid bar, you will likely need to go up in diameter to maintain the same rate.
❌ Internal Corrosion Risk: Unlike solid bars, tubular bars can collect moisture inside the bore. Always ensure the ends are capped or lightly oiled to prevent internal rust, which can create stress fractures and lead to sudden bar failure.
❌ Torsion Tube Clearance: Ensure your chassis torsion tubes are clean and straight. Because tubular bars rely on a consistent wall thickness for their rate, any binding against the chassis tube will cause unpredictable handling and may dent the thin-wall tubing of the bar.
- ❌ Length Check: This is a 26" bar. Double-check your chassis requirements, as some Mini/Micro chassis utilize 23" or 24" bars which are not compatible with this SKU.
