Key Features

• Factory Team Engineering — These hexes are manufactured to the precise tolerances demanded by Team Associated's Factory Team racing programme, ensuring that you receive components designed for serious competition use and reliable long-term performance across demanding track conditions.
• Matched Pair Supply — Supplied as a set of two perfectly matched hexes, ensuring consistent left and right wheel fitment with no variance in offset or clamping characteristics, critical for predictable handling and even tyre wear across both sides of your RC vehicle.
• 4.0mm Offset Specification — The precise 4.0mm offset is engineered to deliver optimal wheel positioning and geometry for the B6.2 platform, providing the correct track width and steering response characteristics that B6.2 setups demand for competitive performance.
• Clamping Design — The clamping mechanism secures wheels firmly at the interface without requiring adhesive, allowing tool-free wheel changes during pit stops, event days, or when rotating between different tyre compounds and conditions without risk of wheel slip or wobble.
• Precision Manufacturing — Each hex is precision-engineered to eliminate play and ensure absolute concentricity, delivering consistent handling characteristics and preventing the geometry inconsistencies that can emerge from worn or damaged original equipment hexes.
• Direct Replacement Component — These hexes serve as direct replacements for original Team Associated B6.2 equipment, making fitment and compatibility completely straightforward with no modifications or adjustments required to your existing suspension geometry.

Technical Performance

The Team Associated B6.2 Clamping Wheel Hex represents precision manufacturing at the highest level for 1/10 scale RC car competition. Manufactured from hard-wearing materials engineered to withstand the constant torque, acceleration forces, and cornering loads experienced during track racing, these hexes maintain their dimensional stability and clamping force across hundreds of racing runs. The 4.0mm offset has been precisely calculated to complement the B6.2 platform's suspension geometry, delivering the correct track width and steering response that this competitive platform demands. Unlike generic aftermarket alternatives, Factory Team components utilise the same manufacturing processes, material specifications, and quality control standards applied to professional competition vehicles. The clamping design eliminates the need for wheel adhesives, allowing rapid pit-stop wheel changes whilst maintaining absolute concentricity every time. Whether you're running practice sessions, club-level racing, or competing at higher competitive levels, these hexes provide the reliability and consistency needed for repeatable performance. The matched pair ensures that both sides of your vehicle perform identically, eliminating any subtle handling differences that could emerge from mismatched components and allowing you to focus entirely on driving technique rather than equipment inconsistency.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these wheel hexes suitable for B6.2 RC buggy racing and competition use? — Yes, these are genuine Team Associated Factory Team components specifically engineered for the B6.2 platform. They are designed for competitive racing use and serve as direct replacements for original B6.2 equipment, making them ideal for racers who demand factory-standard performance and reliability.
• What is the 4.0mm offset and why does it matter for my RC car? — The 4.0mm offset refers to the specific wheel positioning dimension for the B6.2 platform. This offset is critical for establishing the correct track width and suspension geometry, directly affecting handling characteristics, cornering response, and tyre contact patches on track. Using the correct offset ensures your B6.2 performs exactly as designed and that you maintain consistent handling between practice and racing.
• How do clamping wheel hexes compare to adhesive-based wheels? — Clamping hexes secure wheels through mechanical force rather than adhesive, offering several advantages: they allow tool-free wheel changes, provide reusable components with no consumable glue costs, maintain consistent clamping force across multiple uses, and eliminate the risk of wheel slippage that can occur with aged adhesives. For serious racers making frequent pit-stop wheel changes, clamping systems offer superior convenience and reliability.
• Why should I choose Factory Team components for my B6.2? — Factory Team components are engineered to the same specifications used by Team Associated's professional racing programme, ensuring precision manufacturing, consistent quality, and compatibility with other B6.2 Factory Team parts. These components deliver the performance standards demanded by competitive racing, unlike generic aftermarket parts that may introduce handling inconsistencies.
• What is included in this package and do I need anything else? — This package contains a matched pair of clamping wheel hexes ready for immediate installation on your B6.2. You do not need adhesive or additional consumables; simply fit the hexes to your wheels and you're ready to run. If you need replacement wheels, tyres, or associated suspension components, these are available separately from RC Model Shop.
• Are these compatible with other Associated RC buggy platforms? — These hexes are specifically engineered for the B6.2 platform. Whilst the B6.2 shares some design heritage with earlier B6 platforms and later B6.3 variants, compatibility should be verified before fitment to alternative platforms. For questions about fitment to non-B6.2 vehicles, contact RC Model Shop's expert support team for guidance.
