Technical Performance
The AXIAL Brass Rear Axle Tube Set represents a significant performance enhancement for your SCX10 Pro crawler. The use of brass material in this rear axle assembly provides several distinct advantages over standard alternatives. Brass is approximately three times denser than aluminium, which means the 82-gram weight of this set contributes meaningfully to lowering your vehicle's overall centre of gravity. This lower centre of gravity is particularly beneficial in rock crawling scenarios and technical terrain where stability and traction are paramount. The increased mass of the brass tubes helps to anchor the rear end of the chassis, improving weight transfer during climbs and descents, and enhancing grip on challenging surfaces. In practical terms, drivers in the UK RC community have found that brass axle tube upgrades improve vehicle stability, reduce body roll during cornering, and provide more consistent handling characteristics across a variety of terrain types. The precision engineering of AXIAL components ensures that these tubes maintain perfect alignment and are free from manufacturing defects. The brass material is also highly resistant to corrosion, making these components suitable for use in variable British weather conditions. Installation requires removal of the original rear axle tubes and fitting of these brass alternatives, which is within the capabilities of any RC enthusiast with basic tools and mechanical knowledge.
