Overview

Rhodes Race Cars Quick Removal Rectangular Flanges

Rhodes Race Cars quick-removal rectangular flanges are specialized steel plates used in drag racing and performance cars to easily and securely attach tubular chassis components (like subframes, engine mounts, or suspension parts) to the main frame. They feature bolt holes for quick assembly/disassembly (often 4-bolt patterns), allowing for fast maintenance, upgrades, or removal of sections without cutting—meeting NHRA standards for strength. Available in multiple thicknesses and a dozen tubing diameters.

Key characteristics and purpose:

* Quick removal: Designed for fast disconnection, saving time during construction or repairs
* Rectangular shape: The specific shape of the plate for connecting square or rectangular tubing
* Chassis mounting: Used to mount accessories, suspension components, or crossmembers to the car's chassis
* Strong and durable: Made from 3/16 in. thick steel with Grade 8 hardware (nuts/bolts) for high strength
* Laser-cut for specific tubing diameters (i.e, 1 in., 1 1/8 in.)
* NHRA Approved: Accepted for use in sanctioned drag racing events

* How they work: You weld one flange to the end of your tube (e.g., a transmission crossmember) and another to the chassis; then, you bolt them together with the provided hardware, creating a strong, detachable joint. In essence, the flanges are strong, race-legal connectors for modular chassis building.
