The precision-engineered aluminium construction ensures that your wheels remain firmly attached during high-speed runs, aggressive cornering, and challenging terrain—critical for maintaining control and safety during your RC sessions.
Available in striking anodised red, these wheel hexes combine functional performance with visual appeal, allowing you to customise the look of your ready to run RC vehicle whilst improving its overall durability. RC car UK enthusiasts know that quality drivetrain components are the foundation of reliable performance, and these ARRMA-manufactured hexes deliver exactly that. Whether you're a weekend basher enjoying casual off-road driving or a serious competitor pushing your brushless RC 4WD truck to its limits, these wheel hexes represent a smart investment in the longevity and reliability of your model.
This pack includes two hexes—enough to fit one complete pair of wheels. The anodised red finish provides corrosion resistance and enhanced durability, meaning these components will maintain their appearance and structural integrity through countless runs across various terrain types. For RC enthusiasts who value precision engineering and genuine OEM parts, ARRMA wheel hexes are the trusted choice.
Key Features
- Precision Manufactured Aluminium Construction — These wheel hexes are precision engineered from aluminium rather than cheaper plastic or weaker materials, delivering superior strength and consistency across every fitting, which means your wheels will sit perfectly centred and secure every single time you run your RC car.
- Reduced Vehicle Weight — Aluminium construction is significantly lighter than alternative materials, helping to lower your RC vehicle's overall weight and improve acceleration, handling response, and battery runtime—critical advantages whether you're racing or bashng.
- Anodised Red Finish for Durability and Style — The red anodised coating provides a hard, protective layer that resists corrosion from dirt, moisture, and the general wear and tear of outdoor RC driving, whilst delivering an eye-catching appearance that complements modern RC models.
- 17mm Hex Size with 13.6mm Thickness — These hexes feature the industry-standard 17mm connection point with a robust 13.6mm thickness, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of ARRMA vehicles whilst providing the structural strength needed for hard driving.
- Consistent Wheel Fitting — The precision manufacturing process ensures that both hexes in the pack are identically dimensioned, guaranteeing symmetrical weight distribution and balanced handling characteristics across your RC 4WD truck or buggy.
- Pack of Two — This pack contains two hexes, providing enough components to outfit one complete pair of wheels, making this an ideal replacement or upgrade component for ARRMA enthusiasts.
Technical Performance
These 13.6mm aluminium wheel hexes represent the standard fitment for modern ARRMA vehicles, delivering the engineering quality you expect from an official manufacturer part. The aluminium material selection is crucial—it balances weight reduction with structural rigidity, ensuring that the hexes maintain their dimensional accuracy under the stresses of cornering, acceleration, and the impacts inherent to RC driving. The 17mm hex size is a proven standard across the ARRMA vehicle range, including competition-focused models and recreational bashers alike. The anodised finishing process creates a surface hardness that withstands abrasion from repeated assembly and disassembly, dirt contamination, and exposure to moisture and UV radiation. This makes the hexes ideal for UK RC drivers who operate their vehicles in variable weather conditions. The precision manufacturing tolerances mean that wheel installation is always smooth and secure, eliminating play and ensuring that wheels track true without wobbling. For drivers of 1/7 scale ARRMA vehicles like the Infraction and Limitless, or 1/8 scale models like the Typhon and Mojave, these hexes provide the foundation for reliable drivetrain performance across countless runs. Whether you're upgrading from worn original hexes or building a custom setup, these components deliver the consistency and durability that serious RC car UK enthusiasts demand.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What ARRMA vehicles are compatible with these 17mm wheel hexes? — These hexes are standard fitment components for multiple ARRMA models including the 1/7 Infraction 6S 4X4 RTR Brushless All-Road Street Bash, the 1/7 Limitless 6S 4X4 RTR Brushless Street Speed, the 1/7 Mojave 6S 4X4 RTR Brushless Desert Truck, and the 1/8 Typhon 6S 4X4 RTR Brushless Buggy. Check your vehicle's parts list or contact our team to confirm fitment for your specific model.
- Why should I choose aluminium hexes over plastic alternatives? — Aluminium hexes provide superior strength, consistent dimensional accuracy, and reduced weight compared to plastic components. This means more responsive handling, longer component lifespan, and better overall performance—particularly important for RC enthusiasts in the UK who regularly push their vehicles hard.
- Are these hexes suitable for both on-road and off-road driving? — Yes, these hexes are designed for use across the full range of ARRMA vehicles, which includes both street-focused models like the Limitless 6S and aggressive terrain trucks like the Mojave 6S and Typhon 6S. Their robust construction makes them suitable for any RC driving discipline within the ARRMA model range.
- How durable is the anodised red finish? — The anodised coating is specifically applied to enhance corrosion resistance and protect the aluminium substrate from oxidation and wear. This finish will maintain its appearance and protective properties through extensive use, though like all anodised components, the colour may gradually fade with prolonged exposure to sunlight and harsh conditions.
- How many hexes do I need? — Each wheel requires one hex, so a standard four-wheel RC vehicle needs four hexes in total. This pack contains two hexes, which would be enough for one complete pair of wheels, or replacement for two wheels if you're upgrading an existing vehicle.
- Are these genuine ARRMA parts? — Yes, these are official ARRMA manufactured components supplied with the genuine part number AR310447, ensuring authentic quality and compatibility with your ARRMA vehicle.
