Built with premium stainless steel hardware and a fully assembled servo horn configuration, this rudder pushrod offers superior corrosion resistance compared to standard steel components, making it ideal for saltwater and freshwater environments across the UK. RC boat owners who demand durability without compromise will appreciate the engineering quality that Traxxas brings to even the smallest components. This is the OEM spare part trusted by professional RC racers and enthusiasts who understand that precision steering linkages are fundamental to boat performance and handling characteristics.
Whether you're replacing worn steering components, building a new setup, or maintaining your existing Traxxas marine model, this rudder pushrod assembly is the authentic choice. Genuine Traxxas parts ensure proper fit, function and longevity compared to aftermarket alternatives, giving you confidence that your RC boat will respond exactly as the manufacturer intended.
Key Features
- Complete Pre-Assembled Design — This rudder pushrod arrives fully assembled and ready to install, saving you time and eliminating the need to source multiple components separately. You simply mount it directly onto your compatible Traxxas marine model without additional assembly work.
- Stainless Steel Hardware Throughout — The fasteners specified in this kit (3x22mm stainless steel ball cup screws and 3x15mm stainless steel cap screws) provide exceptional corrosion resistance and longevity compared to standard mild steel hardware. Stainless steel is essential for RC boats that regularly encounter saltwater, freshwater or humid storage conditions across the UK.
- Precision Servo Horn Integration — The included servo horn is engineered to work seamlessly with Traxxas servo systems, ensuring accurate steering response and consistent control inputs. The horn is optimised for the mechanical advantage needed in marine rudder applications.
- Multiple Fastener Sizes Included — This assembly includes both 3x22mm ball cup screws (one unit) and 3x15mm cap screws (one unit), providing flexibility for different mounting configurations and replacement scenarios on your RC boat.
- Genuine Traxxas Engineering — As an official Traxxas OEM component, this rudder pushrod meets the exact specifications and tolerances required by Traxxas marine models. Genuine parts ensure perfect compatibility and optimal performance compared to generic alternatives.
- Wide Model Compatibility — This component is compatible with multiple Traxxas marine models including the Spartan 2.4GHz TSM VXL-6S brushless race boats and Spartan SR VXL electric race boats, making it a valuable spare for serious RC boat collectors.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Rudder pushrod assembly represents the precision engineering standard that Traxxas applies to all its marine drivetrain components. The pre-assembled servo horn configuration ensures that steering inputs from your 2.4GHz radio system translate directly and accurately to rudder positioning, which is absolutely critical for high-speed performance in RC boats. The inclusion of stainless steel fasteners (both ball cup screws and standard cap screws) demonstrates Traxxas's commitment to durability in saltwater and freshwater environments. The ball cup screw design provides a secure, flexible connection point that accommodates slight misalignment whilst maintaining positive engagement. This is particularly important in marine applications where vibration, water exposure and dynamic loads can stress standard fastening systems. The 3x22mm and 3x15mm screw sizes accommodate various mounting points on Traxxas marine hulls, allowing proper installation geometry for optimal steering response. The servo horn itself is precision-moulded to work with standard Traxxas servo splines, ensuring immediate compatibility without modification. Water resistance is inherent to the design through the use of sealed servo connections and corrosion-proof hardware. The overall assembly supports the fast-response steering characteristics that modern brushless RC boats demand, particularly when operating at the high speeds that the Spartan SR VXL and similar models are capable of achieving.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the Traxxas Rudder pushrod assembly suitable for beginners? — This component is a replacement spare part rather than a complete boat system, so it's most appropriate for owners who already have a compatible Traxxas marine model. Beginners should start with a complete ready-to-run RC boat kit. However, if you own a Spartan or similar Traxxas boat and need to replace steering components, this is the correct genuine part to use.
- What makes stainless steel fasteners important for RC boats? — Stainless steel resists rust and corrosion far better than standard steel, which is critical for boats that operate in water or are stored in humid UK conditions. Standard steel fasteners can develop rust spots and corrode over time, leading to joint failure and loss of steering precision. The stainless steel hardware in this pushrod assembly will maintain its integrity through many seasons of use.
- Can I use aftermarket pushrod assemblies instead of the genuine Traxxas part? — Whilst aftermarket alternatives exist, genuine Traxxas parts are engineered to exact specifications for your specific boat model and offer guaranteed compatibility. OEM parts ensure that steering geometry, servo horn spline compatibility and mounting hole alignment are all perfect, which directly impacts boat handling and responsiveness.
- What is the difference between ball cup screws and standard cap screws? — Ball cup screws (the 3x22mm fasteners in this kit) feature a rounded cup end that creates a ball joint connection, allowing slight angular movement whilst remaining secure. This is ideal for servo horn connections where some flexibility improves reliability. Standard cap screws (the 3x15mm fasteners) provide fixed connections for mounting points that require rigid assembly.
- How often should I replace my rudder pushrod assembly? — With proper maintenance and storage, the stainless steel components in this assembly should last many seasons. However, if you notice loose steering response, visible corrosion, bent components or servo horn misalignment, replacement is recommended. Regular rinses with fresh water after saltwater operation extend component life significantly.
- Is this component waterproof? — The rudder pushrod itself is submerged during operation, so water exposure is expected. The stainless steel construction provides excellent corrosion resistance in both freshwater and saltwater. The servo horn connection points integrate with sealed servo outputs on your boat for maximum reliability.
