Overview
The Axial Spring 15x85mm 2.20lbs in Red is an essential replacement suspension component for RC enthusiasts in the UK who demand reliable performance from their scale RC models. This pack contains two precision-engineered springs designed specifically for suspension systems that require consistent damping and response characteristics. Whether you're running your Axial RBX10 Ryft 1/10 4WD RC crawler through challenging terrain or maintaining peak performance at the track, having quality replacement springs on hand is crucial for any serious RC hobby collector or competitive racer.
Axial is renowned throughout the UK RC community for manufacturing durable, precision-engineered spare parts that maintain the integrity and performance of your RC vehicles. These springs represent genuine Axial engineering, designed to restore your suspension to factory specifications or to fine-tune your setup for specific driving conditions and terrain types. Whether you're a weekend basher exploring off-road trails or a dedicated crawler pilot tackling technical obstacles, suspension springs are fundamental to maintaining responsive handling and consistent vehicle behaviour.
The 2.20lbs spring rate makes these components particularly suited to maintaining proper suspension geometry and response in your RC car, ensuring that your vehicle maintains optimal contact with the ground and delivers predictable handling characteristics across various driving surfaces. Red-coloured springs are a signature Axial design feature, making them instantly recognisable and adding visual appeal to your RC suspension system whilst providing serious performance benefits.
Key Features
- Genuine Axial Engineering — These springs are manufactured by Axial, a trusted name in RC vehicles throughout the UK, ensuring that you're getting authentic components that meet strict quality standards and are designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing setup.
- 2.20lbs Spring Rate — The specific spring rate of 2.20lbs provides the ideal damping characteristics for maintaining suspension geometry and vehicle response, allowing your RC crawler or truck to maintain consistent handling and ground contact across varied terrain.
- Precise 15x85mm Dimensions — These springs are manufactured to exact specifications with a 15mm diameter and 85mm length, ensuring they fit perfectly into suspension systems designed for this size and deliver predictable performance every time.
- Twin Pack Format — This pack includes two springs, meaning you have enough components to replace a pair of suspension springs on your RC vehicle, whether you're upgrading both sides simultaneously or keeping a spare for emergency replacement during RC sessions.
- Vibrant Red Colour — The distinctive red finish not only looks great on your RC model but also makes visual inspection and identification easy, and Axial's colour-coded springs help enthusiasts quickly identify spring rates in their workshop or at the track.
- Suspension System Compatibility — These springs are specifically engineered to work with Axial RBX10 Ryft models, ensuring perfect fitment and optimal performance when you install them into your vehicle's suspension system.
Technical Performance
The Axial Spring 15x85mm 2.20lbs represents precision engineering designed to maintain the performance standards your RC vehicle demands. With a spring rate of 2.20lbs, these components deliver the ideal balance between suspension compliance and support, ensuring your RC crawler or truck maintains consistent handling characteristics whether you're navigating rocky terrain, sand, mud, or track surfaces. The 15mm diameter and 85mm length specification means these springs integrate perfectly with Axial suspension systems, providing the exact amount of preload and response that factory engineering intended. The red colour is not merely aesthetic; Axial uses colour-coding as an industry-standard method for quickly identifying spring rates, which is invaluable when you're building, maintaining, or upgrading your RC setup. These genuine Axial components are constructed from high-quality spring steel that resists fatigue and maintains its properties over thousands of compression cycles, essential for both casual weekend bashers and competitive RC enthusiasts who demand reliability. Whether you're replacing worn springs that have lost their responsiveness or experimenting with suspension tuning to optimise your vehicle's behaviour on specific terrain types, these springs provide the foundation for consistent and predictable RC vehicle performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What RC models are these Axial springs compatible with? — These 15x85mm 2.20lbs springs are specifically designed for the Axial RBX10 Ryft 1/10 4WD RTR available in both orange and black colour variants, making them the perfect replacement when your original suspension springs require maintenance or upgrade.
- Why do I need replacement suspension springs for my RC car? — RC springs experience constant stress and compression cycles during use, and over time they can lose their original spring rate and responsiveness, resulting in softer suspension feel and less predictable handling. Replacing worn springs restores your vehicle to peak performance and is one of the most cost-effective maintenance investments you can make.
- What does the 2.20lbs spring rate mean? — The spring rate indicates how much force is required to compress the spring by one inch, with 2.20lbs being a relatively soft rate suitable for rock crawlers and off-road vehicles where suspension compliance helps maintain traction and vehicle stability on uneven terrain.
- How do I know when my RC suspension springs need replacing? — If your RC vehicle feels noticeably softer in corners, wallows during acceleration, or doesn't return to ride height quickly after compression, your springs may have fatigued and lost their spring rate, making replacement springs a wise investment.
- Can I use these springs on other RC vehicles? — These springs are specifically engineered for Axial RBX10 Ryft suspension systems with 15x85mm specifications. Using them on other vehicles may result in improper suspension geometry and unpredictable handling, so it's important to verify compatibility with your specific RC model before installation.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Suspension spring replacement is a straightforward maintenance task well within the capabilities of beginner RC enthusiasts, requiring only basic tools and minimal mechanical knowledge, making this an ideal first maintenance project for those new to RC hobby ownership.
