These are genuine Traxxas parts, backed by their reputation for uncompromising quality and customer satisfaction across the entire RC hobby community.

Key Features

• Aluminium Construction — Made from high-quality aluminium rather than plastic, these hubs deliver superior strength and durability whilst remaining lightweight, which is critical for maintaining balanced weight distribution and optimal handling characteristics across your RC model.
• Black Anodised Finish — The professional black anodised coating not only provides an aggressive, premium appearance that upgrades the visual appeal of your RC vehicle, but also offers protective corrosion resistance that extends the lifespan of the hubs through multiple seasons of regular use.
• Hex Drive Design — The hexagonal drive system provides a secure, reliable connection to your wheel drive shafts, ensuring consistent power delivery and eliminating slippage that can occur with inferior fastening systems, particularly important when running high-torque brushless motors.
• Included Hex Clips — The package includes two hex clips specifically designed to work with these hubs, providing additional security and preventing accidental separation during aggressive driving or impact situations, giving you peace of mind during high-speed runs.
• Universal Compatibility — These hubs are designed to fit a wide range of Traxxas models including the X-Maxx, XRT, Funco Motorsports, and other large-scale RC vehicles, making them a versatile upgrade option for your existing collection.
• Direct OEM Replacement — As genuine Traxxas original equipment, these hubs integrate seamlessly with your existing drivetrain without requiring modifications, adjustments, or compatibility concerns.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas Wheel hubs represent a critical upgrade for owners of high-performance RC monster trucks and large-scale RC vehicles that utilise brushless powertrains. When you transition from standard plastic hubs to premium aluminium construction, you're fundamentally improving the mechanical integrity of your entire drivetrain system. The 24mm design accommodates standard Traxxas wheel specifications whilst the anodised aluminium construction distributes mechanical stress more effectively than plastic alternatives, reducing the risk of failure under the extreme loads generated by 8S LiPo battery systems and brushless motor combinations that characterise modern competitive RC vehicles. The black anodised finish provides electromagnetic shielding benefits alongside its aesthetic appeal and corrosion resistance properties. Whether you're running the X-Maxx Belted 4WD Brushless RTR 8S Monster Truck, the XRT Ultimate series, or the Funco Motorsports Pro Scale 8S 2WD Electric Sand Car, upgrading to these aluminium hubs will noticeably improve the responsiveness and longevity of your RC model. The hex-drive system, when combined with the included hex clips, creates a rock-solid connection that eliminates any possibility of hub slippage, particularly important when executing hard acceleration from standstill or negotiating high-speed cornering scenarios where lateral forces test every component of your drivetrain.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these wheel hubs better than the plastic alternatives? — Yes, significantly. The aluminium construction offers superior strength, better heat dissipation, and improved durability compared to stock plastic hubs. They distribute mechanical loads more effectively and resist impact damage better, making them essential for high-performance RC vehicles running brushless motors and 8S LiPo batteries.
• Which Traxxas models are compatible with these hubs? — These hubs are compatible with a comprehensive range of Traxxas models including the X-Maxx Belted 4WD Brushless RTR 8S Monster Truck (available in orange, blue, red and green), the X-Maxx Ultimate series (blue X and green X variants), the XRT Ultimate and XRT VXL-8S (available in blue, black, orange and green), the Funco Motorsports Pro Scale 8S 2WD Electric Sand Car (available in all colour options), and the X-Monster chassis platform.
• How do hex clips improve performance? — The included hex clips provide redundant fastening security, preventing hub separation during high-impact driving situations or rapid deceleration events. This is particularly important when running high-torque brushless systems where sudden load reversals can stress mechanical connections.
• Will upgrading to aluminium hubs improve my RC car's handling? — Yes, the improved weight distribution and elimination of flex in the hub connection point will enhance overall handling precision and steering response, particularly noticeable during aggressive cornering and high-speed manoeuvres typical of weekend bashing or competitive RC racing scenarios.
• Is installation straightforward? — Yes, these are direct OEM replacements that require only basic hex driver tools. Simply remove your existing plastic hubs and install these aluminium versions in their place, utilising the supplied hex clips for additional security.
• What does anodised mean? — Anodising is an electrochemical process that creates a protective oxide layer on the aluminium surface. This finish prevents corrosion, enhances durability, and provides the professional black appearance whilst making the hubs significantly more resistant to weathering and chemical damage.
