JConcepts B5M battery hold down thumb wheel

Designed to securely holding down the battery brace on Team Associated’s fifth generation mid motor off-road vehicles are the aluminium battery hold down thumb wheels from JConcepts. They offer an alignment friendly cone shape that eases the wheel into position, it has a larger flange which perfectly matches the proportions of the battery brace and the low-profile shape fits nicely under the latest bodies on the market. On top of this the grippy surface allows hand-tightening with ease. The aluminium wheels are available as pairs, in black or blue colour and they are finished off with a closed-end design which features an etched JC logo.
