Technical Performance
These front brake calipers represent the kind of precision engineering and materials science that defines modern RC sand car performance. Machined from 6061-T6 aluminium—a recognised aerospace-grade alloy—these components offer outstanding strength-to-weight ratios crucial for maintaining your sand car's agility and speed. The green-anodised finish is not merely aesthetic; anodising creates a hard, oxide layer on the aluminium surface that resists corrosion and wear, extending the service life of these calipers through countless hours of RC driving. The meticulous machining process ensures that these calipers integrate perfectly with your Traxxas Funco Motorsports Pro Scale sand car, whether you're running the red, blue, orange, or green variant. The inclusion of both 3x10mm and 2.5x8mm fasteners with threadlock ensures that your installation remains secure and vibration-free, critical for maintaining consistent braking performance during high-speed runs. These calipers are engineered to provide reliable, responsive braking action, an essential component of any properly tuned RC sand car that demands precision control over sand, dirt, and challenging terrain.
