Overview
The ARRMA CVD Driveshaft Metal Fittings (2) Z-ARA311150 is an essential spare parts set for RC enthusiasts who own ARRMA Kraton or Outcast 4S models. Whether you're a serious competitor, a weekend basher, or someone who enjoys pushing their brushless RC truck to the limit, this drivetrain component set provides the precision-engineered parts you need to keep your vehicle running smoothly. CVD (Constant Velocity) driveshafts are critical components in modern RC cars and trucks, transmitting power from the motor to the wheels whilst allowing suspension movement. This metal fittings set is specifically designed to service and repair the CVD driveshaft assembly on compatible ARRMA 1/10 and 1/8 scale models.
If you're searching for genuine ARRMA spare parts in the UK or looking to maintain your RC car UK setup with quality components, this is exactly what you need. The CVD system allows for improved handling and more consistent performance across varied terrain, making it a preferred choice for 4WD RC vehicles. When your existing driveshaft fittings wear out or become damaged from intense use, having a quality replacement set like this ensures your RC truck continues to deliver the performance you expect.
This is a spare part designed for Z-ARA311147, so if you're replacing components on your existing Kraton or Outcast, or building up a complete replacement driveshaft assembly, this set gives you all the metal components you need in one convenient package. ARRMA parts are manufactured to exacting standards and are the genuine choice for keeping your RC model in top condition.
Key Features
- Precision Manufactured Steel CVD Barrel — The CVD barrel is the central component that houses the pins and allows for smooth rotation whilst accommodating suspension travel, and this precision-manufactured steel construction ensures long-lasting durability through countless cycles of use on track, trail or garden bashings.
- Stainless Steel CVD Pins — These pins are engineered from stainless steel to provide smooth and consistent performance without corrosion or degradation, meaning you get reliable power transmission session after session without worry about rust or wear compromising your driveshaft function.
- Spring Steel CVD Retainer Rings — The retainer rings are manufactured from spring steel specifically designed to keep the pin firmly in position during use, preventing unwanted movement that could compromise drivetrain performance or cause damage to your RC truck's transmission system.
- Complete Metal Fittings Set — This package includes everything needed to fully service or replace the metal components of your CVD driveshaft, giving you a comprehensive solution rather than having to source individual parts from multiple suppliers.
- Genuine ARRMA Component — As an official ARRMA spare part, you can be confident that these fittings are manufactured to the exact specifications required by your Kraton or Outcast, ensuring perfect compatibility and reliable performance.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA CVD Driveshaft Metal Fittings represent the engineering excellence that goes into making modern brushless RC trucks perform reliably at high speeds and under demanding conditions. CVD (Constant Velocity) systems are significantly more advanced than traditional solid driveshafts because they allow the wheels to move up and down with suspension travel whilst maintaining consistent power delivery at any suspension angle. This is particularly important in 4WD RC vehicles like the ARRMA Kraton and Outcast, where independent suspension movement on all four corners would otherwise cause driveshaft binding and loss of power. The precision-manufactured steel CVD barrel forms the heart of this assembly, containing the pin assembly and allowing for smooth rotational movement. The stainless steel CVD pins are the actual load-bearing components that transmit torque, and stainless steel's superior corrosion resistance ensures these pins maintain their surface finish and dimensional accuracy through repeated use, particularly valuable if you're running your RC car in wet conditions or using it in coastal areas where salt spray could degrade standard steel components. The spring steel retainer rings are engineered to maintain constant pressure on the pins, keeping them precisely positioned within the barrel without being so tight that they bind the mechanism. This level of precision engineering is what separates quality ARRMA components from cheaper alternatives, and it translates directly to smoother operation, longer component lifespan, and more predictable handling characteristics that competitive RC drivers and serious hobbyists depend on. Whether you're running your Kraton or Outcast on high-speed circuits, rocky terrain, or sandy terrain, these metal fittings maintain their performance characteristics across all conditions, making them an excellent investment in long-term reliability.

What You Need to Complete
- This is a spare parts set designed for Z-ARA311147, which is the CVD driveshaft assembly it services. If you do not already have a CVD driveshaft assembly in your vehicle, you will need to source the complete driveshaft set separately before installing these metal fittings.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a CVD driveshaft and why do I need these metal fittings? — A CVD (Constant Velocity) driveshaft is a specialised component in modern 4WD RC vehicles that allows power to be transmitted to the wheels whilst accommodating suspension movement. The metal fittings in this set are the core components that make up the CVD assembly: the barrel houses the mechanism, the pins transmit the torque, and the retainer rings keep everything aligned. Over time, with heavy use, these components can wear out or become damaged, requiring replacement. This set gives you fresh metal components to either service an existing driveshaft or build a complete replacement assembly.
- Will these metal fittings fit my ARRMA RC truck? — Yes, these fittings are designed for specific ARRMA models including the 1/10 Kraton 4X4 4S V2 BLX models (both standard and green versions), the 1/10 Outcast 4X4 4S V2 BLX models (both red and gunmetal versions), and the 1/8 Mojave 4X4 4S BLX models (both blue and white versions). Check your vehicle's model number against the compatibility list provided. These are genuine ARRMA parts manufactured to exact OEM specifications.
- Are these suitable for high-speed racing RC trucks? — Absolutely. The precision manufacturing and quality materials used in these ARRMA metal fittings make them ideal for competitive racing applications where reliability and consistent performance are paramount. The stainless steel pins resist corrosion and maintain their dimensional accuracy, whilst the spring steel retainer rings ensure precise alignment throughout your run. Whether you're running a speed monster truck or pushing your Outcast stunt truck to its limits, these fittings will perform reliably.
- What is the difference between metal and composite CVD fittings? — Metal CVD fittings, like this set, offer superior durability and longevity compared to composite alternatives. Steel components can handle higher torque loads and maintain their performance characteristics even under extreme racing conditions. Composite fittings are lighter but more prone to wear and breakage under sustained high-speed use. For serious RC enthusiasts in the UK who want parts that will last through multiple seasons of heavy use, metal fittings are the superior choice.
- How often should I replace my CVD driveshaft fittings? — This depends entirely on how frequently and intensively you use your ARRMA truck. Casual weekend bashers might need replacement only once every couple of years, whilst competitive racers or serious hobbyists who run multiple sessions per week might replace them every few months. Regular inspection of your driveshaft for play, noise, or inconsistent performance will tell you when replacement is needed. Keeping spare sets on hand, like this one, ensures you're never without a working drivetrain.
