Overview
The Traxxas Beadlock Rings in orange (machined aluminium) represent the pinnacle of RC wheel customisation for serious enthusiasts in the UK. Part of the innovative Pro Scale Aluminium Wheel System, these beadlock rings are engineered by Traxxas to deliver maximum flexibility when building custom wheels for your Maxx Slash or Unlimited Desert Racer.

What sets these beadlock rings apart from traditional alternatives is their engineering excellence and eye-catching design. Machined from premium 6061-T6 aluminium and finished with brilliant anodised orange colouring, these rings not only look stunning on your RC buggy or desert racer but also provide the durability and strength that demanding off-road conditions require. The complete Pro Scale system gives you unprecedented control over your wheel setup, allowing you to mix and match components to create truly unique, personalised wheels that reflect your style and driving preferences. This is RC customisation at its finest, offering UK RC enthusiasts the tools to build something truly special.
These beadlock rings are an essential component for anyone serious about their RC hobby. Available as a set of four, they work seamlessly with Traxxas's complete line of wheel centres and washers to create a fully integrated, professional-grade wheel system that outperforms traditional alternatives in both aesthetics and functionality.
Key Features
- Premium 6061-T6 Aluminium Construction — These beadlock rings are precision machined from ultra-tough, high-quality 6061-T6 aluminium alloy, which is factory-engineered to exacting specifications by Traxxas and renowned for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and durability in demanding RC applications.
- Brilliant Anodised Orange Finish — The eye-catching orange anodised colour coating not only delivers stunning visual appeal but also provides excellent protection against corrosion and wear, ensuring your wheels maintain their vibrant appearance through countless hours of bashing and racing on UK tracks and trails.
- Precision Machined Detailing — Every beadlock ring features precision machined detailing that guarantees perfect fit and finish with Traxxas wheel centres, eliminating fitment issues and ensuring your wheels look and perform as intended without gaps or movement.
- Simple Six-Screw Fastening System — Unlike traditional beadlock rings that require dozens of screws to secure, the Pro Scale system uses just six screws to hold each beadlock ring to the wheel centre, making assembly faster, easier and more reliable whilst maintaining superior holding strength.
- Complete Customisation Flexibility — These rings are part of Traxxas's comprehensive Pro Scale Aluminium Wheel System, allowing you to combine them with various wheel centres and washers to create completely custom wheel designs that match your vehicle's body colour and your personal aesthetic preferences.
- Compatible with Pro Scale System — These beadlock rings integrate seamlessly with the entire Pro Scale ecosystem, including pre-glued tyre assemblies, aluminium wheel centres and aluminium wheel washers, creating a fully coordinated, high-performance wheel solution.
- Set of Four Rings — This package includes four beadlock rings, providing complete coverage for a full set of wheels on your RC vehicle, eliminating the need to purchase multiple sets for a complete upgrade.
Technical Performance
These Traxxas beadlock rings represent the absolute pinnacle of precision engineering in the RC wheel market. Machined from premium 6061-T6 aluminium alloy, the same material used in aerospace and motorsport applications, these rings deliver exceptional strength whilst maintaining a lightweight profile that won't compromise your vehicle's acceleration and handling characteristics. The anodised orange finish isn't merely cosmetic; it's a protective layer that guards against oxidation, salt water damage and the wear that comes from aggressive RC driving on UK terrain. The precision machining process ensures tolerances tight enough that every ring fits perfectly with Traxxas wheel centres, with no wobble or movement that could affect handling or aesthetics. The innovative six-screw fastening system represents a significant improvement over traditional beadlock designs, reducing assembly complexity whilst actually improving holding strength through better load distribution. Whether you're pushing your Maxx Slash or Unlimited Desert Racer to its limits on competitive tracks or enjoying recreational driving on trails and beaches across the UK, these beadlock rings will maintain their integrity and appearance through countless hours of demanding use.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What vehicles are these Traxxas beadlock rings compatible with? — These beadlock rings are designed to work with the Traxxas Maxx Slash and Traxxas Unlimited Desert Racer as part of the Pro Scale Aluminium Wheel System. They will only fit Traxxas Pro Scale wheel centres and are not compatible with standard Traxxas wheels or wheels from other manufacturers.
- Why choose beadlock rings over standard wheels for my RC car? — Beadlock rings offer superior styling, customisation options and reliability compared to standard plastic wheels. The Pro Scale system using these machined aluminium rings allows you to create truly unique wheel designs whilst the six-screw fastening system provides more secure tyre retention than traditional alternatives, making them ideal for serious RC enthusiasts in the UK who want both performance and appearance.
- How many beadlock rings do I need to complete a full wheel set? — This set includes four beadlock rings, which is exactly what you need for one complete wheel set on a four-wheel RC vehicle. You'll also need four wheel centres, two sets of pre-glued tyre assemblies, and one set of wheel washers to complete the full Pro Scale wheel system.
- What is the advantage of the six-screw system compared to traditional beadlock designs? — The innovative six-screw Pro Scale fastening system used with these rings is far simpler than traditional designs that require dozens of screws, making assembly quicker and easier whilst actually providing superior holding strength through optimised load distribution. This means faster wheel changes during racing and more reliable performance during aggressive driving.
- Can I mix these orange rings with wheel centres and washers in different colours? — Yes, absolutely. The beauty of the Pro Scale system is its flexibility. You can combine these orange beadlock rings with any colour wheel centres and washers from the Traxxas Pro Scale range, including blue, grey, green, red and other colours, allowing you to create completely custom colour schemes that match your vehicle's body or your personal preferences.
- What makes 6061-T6 aluminium superior for RC wheel rings? — 6061-T6 aluminium is an aerospace-grade material offering exceptional strength, lightweight properties and excellent corrosion resistance. Traxxas specifically chose this alloy for their Pro Scale rings because it maintains structural integrity under the extreme stresses of RC racing and bashing whilst being light enough not to negatively impact performance. The precision machining process ensures perfect tolerances and finish.
- Is the orange anodised finish durable for regular RC use? — Yes, the anodised finish is specifically applied to protect the aluminium underneath from corrosion, oxidation and wear. This means your beadlock rings will maintain their brilliant orange appearance through regular RC driving, including exposure to moisture, dirt and salt water on UK beaches and trails, far longer than untreated aluminium would.
