Overview
The Fastrax Interchangeable Hex Driver Set - Imperial FAST619 is an essential tool for any RC enthusiast working with imperial-sized fasteners on their RC cars, trucks and crawlers. Whether you run Traxxas vehicles, Losi buggies, Team Associated platforms or any other RC model that uses imperial hex fasteners, this ingenious space-saving tool eliminates the need to carry around a full toolbox just to perform basic maintenance and adjustments. The clever design combines one durable aluminium handle with four interchangeable hex wrench bits, all housed neatly in a compact package that fits in your pit bag or garage without taking up valuable space.
This is the ideal solution for RC hobbyists who don't want to lug around heavy tool kits to the track, at the bash spot, or when travelling with their RC car.

The positive reviews from real users praise its quality, ease of use and the fact that the individual tips can even be used in a power drill for faster work when you're back at home.
If you're serious about RC cars in the UK, having the right tools makes all the difference between frustration and enjoyment. The Fastrax Interchangeable Hex Driver Set removes one major pain point from RC ownership by giving you exactly the imperial wrench sizes you need in one simple, professional-quality tool.
Key Features
- Four Imperial Hex Wrench Bits in One Handle — The set includes .050 inch, 1/16 inch, 5/64 inch and 3/32 inch hex bits, which covers the most common fastener sizes found on RC cars and trucks across multiple manufacturers and scales, eliminating the need to carry multiple separate wrenches.
- Hollow Aluminium Handle Construction — The lightweight yet robust aluminium handle is engineered to be durable enough for regular maintenance work while keeping the overall tool weight minimal, making it perfect for pit bags and portable tool kits.
- Spring Clamp Holder System — Each hex bit slides smoothly into a precision spring clamp holder at the end of the handle, ensuring secure retention during use whilst allowing instant tool changes without fumbling or searching for the right size.
- Space-Saving Design — Instead of carrying four separate hex wrenches, this single handle houses all four bits, dramatically reducing clutter in your toolbox, pit bag or workshop whilst maintaining professional functionality.
- Versatile Bit Compatibility — The individual hex wrench tips are compatible with standard power drills, allowing you to use them for faster work when you're back at the workshop, adding genuine utility beyond just hand tools.
- Professional Quality Manufacturing — Fastrax is recognised throughout the RC hobby as a manufacturer of reliable, quality tools and accessories, and user reviews consistently highlight the durability and lack of material degradation even after extended use.
- Ideal for Non-Metric RC Models — Essential for anyone running RC cars that use imperial fasteners rather than metric, this tool removes the guesswork and ensures you always have the correct size on hand.
Technical Performance
The Fastrax Interchangeable Hex Driver Set FAST619 is engineered from quality aluminium with precision-machined hex bits to exacting standards. The hollow aluminium construction provides the ideal balance between weight and strength, critical for tools that may spend significant time in your pit bag at RC tracks across the UK. The spring clamp holder mechanism is designed with sufficient grip to prevent bits from slipping during use, yet requires minimal effort to insert and remove bits for tool changes. The four imperial sizes included—.050 inch, 1/16 inch, 5/64 inch and 3/32 inch—represent the most commonly used fastener sizes across leading RC manufacturers, ensuring you'll rarely find yourself without the right size. Real-world testing by RC enthusiasts confirms the tool maintains its integrity through hundreds of uses with no sign of the handle or clamp mechanism perishing or wearing out, testament to Fastrax's engineering standards. The ability to use individual bits in power drills opens up additional utility for faster maintenance sessions in your workshop.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the Fastrax Interchangeable Hex Driver Set suitable for all RC vehicles? — This set is specifically designed for RC cars, trucks, buggies and crawlers that use imperial-sized fasteners.

- Can I use these hex bits in a power drill? — Yes, one of the key benefits highlighted by users is that the individual hex wrench bits can be inserted into a standard power drill, allowing you to speed up maintenance work when you're back at your workshop rather than working at the track or bash spot.
- What makes this better than carrying four separate hex wrenches? — The entire set fits in one compact aluminium handle, dramatically reducing the space required in your pit bag or toolbox compared to carrying four separate wrenches of varying sizes. This space-saving design is specifically engineered for RC enthusiasts who want to minimise their tool burden whilst maintaining full functionality.
