Key Features
- 6061-T6 Aluminium Construction — Machined from solid 6061-T6 aluminium, these wheel hubs offer exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring your RC car benefits from enhanced durability without the penalty of excess weight that can slow acceleration and handling.
- Red-Anodised Brilliant Finish — The anodising process creates a hard, vibrant protective layer that resists corrosion and wear, while delivering the stunning red aesthetic that makes your Traxxas RC vehicle stand out from the crowd.
- Precision Fit with Greater Accuracy — Engineered to fit with superior precision, these hubs ensure minimal play and maximum control, translating directly into better steering response and more predictable handling characteristics on any terrain.
- Strip-Proof Performance — The robust aluminium construction resists stripping and damage that can occur with plastic hubs, meaning your investment will last significantly longer through repeated use and rough driving conditions.
- Sold as a Pair — This package includes two front wheel hubs, giving you everything you need to upgrade both front wheels on your RC car in a single purchase.
- 12mm Hex Fitment — Designed with 12mm hex geometry, these hubs are compatible with a wide range of Traxxas models and standard RC car wheel setups, making them a versatile upgrade option.

Technical Performance
The Traxxas Wheel Hubs, Hex, Front TRX10954-RED represent the pinnacle of performance upgrades for serious RC enthusiasts in the UK. Machined from premium 6061-T6 aluminium alloy and finished with a brilliant red anodised coating, these components deliver the kind of precision engineering that makes a real difference in RC car handling and longevity. The 6061-T6 aluminium specification is industry-recognised for its excellent strength-to-weight characteristics, making it the material of choice for high-performance RC components where every gram matters and durability cannot be compromised. The anodising process creates a hard, corrosion-resistant surface that protects the underlying aluminium from the elements and from wear caused by repeated driving sessions. Unlike plastic wheel hubs that can strip, crack or flex under load, the aluminium construction maintains its structural integrity through years of use, whether you're running on rocky trails, asphalt, or sand. The precision machining ensures that these hubs fit your vehicle's axles with exceptional accuracy, eliminating the play and wobble that can develop with lower-quality components. This tight fitment translates into improved steering precision and more responsive handling, allowing you to extract better performance from your RC car. The 12mm hex geometry is a widely used standard in the RC hobby, ensuring compatibility with a broad range of wheels and setups, while the lightweight nature of aluminium compared to alternative materials means your vehicle benefits from reduced unsprung weight, improving suspension response and acceleration characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these wheel hubs suitable for my Traxxas RC car? — These front wheel hubs feature 12mm hex fitment and are engineered to Traxxas specifications, making them compatible with a wide range of Traxxas vehicles. Check your specific model's documentation to confirm compatibility, but if your vehicle uses 12mm hex front axles, these hubs will fit perfectly.
- What is the advantage of aluminium wheel hubs over plastic? — Aluminium hubs offer significantly better durability, precision and longevity compared to plastic components. They resist stripping, maintain structural integrity over thousands of driving cycles, and provide a tighter fit on your axles for improved handling and steering response.
- Will upgrading to these wheel hubs improve my RC car's performance? — Yes, upgrading to quality aluminium wheel hubs can improve handling precision, reduce unsprung weight, and enhance the overall driving experience. The precision fit eliminates play in the steering system, translating to more responsive and predictable handling on any terrain.
- How do I know if I need front or rear wheel hubs? — This product is specifically designed for front axles. Check your vehicle's current setup or consult your user manual to determine whether you need front hubs, rear hubs, or both. These come as a pair, so they will upgrade both front wheels in a single purchase.
- What does red-anodised mean? — Anodising is an electrochemical process that creates a hard, protective oxide layer on the aluminium surface. Red-anodised means this protective layer has been dyed red, giving the hubs their vibrant colour while protecting the aluminium from corrosion and wear.
- Are these compatible with standard RC wheels? — Yes, the 12mm hex fitment is a standard specification used across the RC hobby industry, making these hubs compatible with most aftermarket and OEM wheels designed for 12mm hex axles.
