Overview
The Axial Threaded Aluminium Link 7.5x80mm Grey (2pcs) Z-AX31419 is an essential replacement or upgrade component for serious RC enthusiasts in the UK who demand precision engineering and reliable performance from their scale crawlers and rock buggies. This genuine Axial product represents the kind of quality parts that separate truly competitive RC setups from basic builds, making it an ideal choice whether you're upgrading an existing RC car UK model or maintaining your fleet of high-performance vehicles. These lightweight aluminium links are engineered to work seamlessly within the suspension geometry of compatible Axial platforms, delivering the kind of responsive handling and durability that weekend bashers and competitive drivers alike depend on.
Manufactured from premium 6061 aluminium alloy and finished in a sophisticated grey anodised coating, these threaded links combine reduced weight with improved stiffness—a critical engineering balance that translates directly to better performance on technical terrain. The tapered design philosophy demonstrates Axial's commitment to optimising weight distribution without sacrificing structural integrity, ensuring your RC crawler maintains precise geometry through demanding off-road courses and challenging rock gardens. Whether you're replacing worn components or building a custom suspension setup, these links deliver the level of engineering quality you'd expect from an authorised Axial retailer stocking genuine, factory-specification parts.
Compatible with the AX31186 M4 Rod End Set and featured as original equipment in the front lower mount assembly of the AX90046 kit, the Z-AX31419 represents genuine Axial engineering designed to work in perfect harmony with the rest of your suspension system. These are the kind of precision components that experienced RC builders trust to maintain the exact performance characteristics their vehicles were designed to deliver.
Key Features
- Premium 6061 Aluminium Construction — Manufactured from industry-standard 6061 aluminium alloy, these links provide the perfect balance of lightweight design and structural rigidity, ensuring your RC crawler maintains precise suspension geometry even under extreme articulation and side loads.
- Tapered Design for Optimised Weight and Stiffness — The sophisticated tapered profile reduces overall mass while enhancing lateral stiffness, delivering improved steering response and more precise handling characteristics across rough terrain and technical courses.
- Grey Anodised Finish — The professional grey anodised coating not only provides a refined appearance but also protects the aluminium from corrosion and wear, extending component lifespan during extended off-road use in the UK's variable weather conditions.
- Threaded Connection System — Precision-threaded design ensures secure, repeatable connections with the AX31186 M4 Rod End Set, allowing for easy assembly, disassembly and fine-tuning of your suspension geometry as needed.
- OEM Specification Component — Featured as original equipment in Axial's AX90046 kit front lower mount assembly, these links are engineered to exact factory specifications, guaranteeing perfect compatibility and performance characteristics.
- Genuine Axial Product — As an authorised Axial retailer, we supply only genuine factory parts, ensuring you receive components manufactured to the exact standards that professional RC competitors and serious hobbyists demand.
Technical Performance
The Axial Threaded Aluminium Link 7.5x80mm represents a masterclass in suspension engineering, combining material science with practical off-road performance requirements. The 6061 aluminium alloy specification delivers a proven balance of weight and strength that has become the industry standard for high-performance RC components. At 7.5mm in diameter with an 80mm overall length, these links provide the structural geometry necessary for precise suspension kinematics whilst the tapered profile ensures that strength is concentrated where it's needed most. The grey anodised finish goes beyond aesthetics—it provides genuine corrosion resistance that's essential when your RC crawler is regularly exposed to mud, water, and the varied UK climate. When used in conjunction with the AX31186 M4 Rod End Set, these links create a suspension assembly of remarkable precision, the kind that allows competitive rock crawlers to navigate technical obstacles with millimetre-perfect control. The threaded design simplifies maintenance and adjustment, allowing you to fine-tune your suspension geometry or quickly replace components without requiring specialised tools or expertise. This is genuine engineering designed for drivers who understand that suspension precision directly translates to on-course performance and reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What Axial RC models are these suspension links compatible with? — These Axial Threaded Aluminium Links Z-AX31419 are specifically confirmed compatible with the Axial 1/10 SCX10 II Deadbolt 4WD Brushed RTR model. They were originally featured as part of the AX90046 kit's front lower mount assembly, making them ideal replacement or upgrade components for this platform and potentially other SCX10 II-based builds.
- Why should I choose 6061 aluminium for my RC suspension components? — 6061 aluminium is the industry-standard choice for high-performance RC suspension links because it offers exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, proven durability in competitive environments, and excellent corrosion resistance when anodised. This material has been validated through thousands of hours of competitive racing and hardcore bashing, making it the trusted choice for serious RC enthusiasts across the UK.
- How do the tapered suspension links improve my RC car's performance? — The tapered design reduces unnecessary weight whilst maintaining full structural rigidity where it matters most—at the connection points. This results in a lighter overall suspension assembly that responds more quickly to terrain changes, provides more direct steering feedback, and reduces unsprung mass for improved traction and control on technical rock gardens and course obstacles.
- Can I use these links as direct replacements for worn components? — Yes, the Z-AX31419 serves as a genuine OEM replacement for the front lower mount links in compatible Axial models. Because these are factory-specification components, they will drop straight into your existing suspension geometry without any modification or adjustment to your setup.
- What tools do I need to install these threaded links? — The threaded design makes installation straightforward—you'll need basic RC tools including hex keys or a multi-tool suitable for your rod end fasteners. The precision threading ensures repeatable, secure connections without requiring specialist equipment.
- Are these suspension links suitable for beginner RC drivers? — Whilst these are genuine Axial components suitable for any skill level, they're specifically engineered for drivers who understand suspension geometry and appreciate precision engineering. Beginners may find these valuable as original replacement parts if maintaining an existing model, though they're particularly valuable for drivers stepping up to more technical, competitive RC driving.
