Technical Performance
The Corally Hinge Pin Front Upper Arm Steel components represent the engineering excellence that Team Corally is recognised for in the RC hobby market. Manufactured using advanced CNC machining processes, each hinge pin is produced to extremely tight tolerances that ensure perfect fit within the upper arm assembly. The hardened steel material undergoes specialised treatment to increase surface hardness and wear resistance, critical properties for a component that experiences constant rotational stress during suspension movement. At 49mm in length and 4mm in diameter, these hinge pins are precisely dimensioned to maintain the correct suspension geometry and pivot point alignment. The hardening process significantly extends component life compared to untreated steel alternatives, making these official Corally parts a sound investment for serious RC car UK enthusiasts who want to maintain their vehicles to factory specifications. Quality suspension components like these directly impact your RC truck or buggy's handling precision, turning response, and overall predictability during high-speed cornering and rough terrain driving.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Corally RC vehicles are compatible with these hinge pins? — These hinge pins are specifically designed for the Corally Asuga XLR 6S series (available in RTR brushless and Roller configurations, in Blue, Red, and Green colour variants) and the Corally Kagama XP 6S brushless truck range (both RTR and Roller versions in all colours). If you own any of these models, these are the correct OEM replacement components.
- How often should I replace my hinge pins? — Hinge pins should be inspected regularly for wear and replaced when they show visible damage, pitting, or if suspension articulation becomes notchy or stiff. Regular maintenance depends on your driving intensity—serious racers may replace them several times per season, whilst casual bashers might change them annually or as needed.
- Are these hardened steel hinge pins stronger than standard versions? — Yes, the hardened steel treatment applied to these pins increases surface hardness significantly, providing superior wear resistance and durability compared to untreated steel alternatives. This makes them ideal for high-frequency suspension movement and the impacts of off-road RC driving.
- Why is suspension component quality important for my RC car? — Your suspension system is critical to handling, turning response, and overall vehicle predictability. Worn or incorrect suspension components introduce play and inconsistency that degrades performance. Using genuine OEM parts like these Corally hinge pins ensures your vehicle maintains factory specifications and reliable handling characteristics.
- What is the difference between these and aftermarket hinge pins? — These are genuine Team Corally OEM components engineered specifically for your vehicle and manufactured to exacting standards. Authentic Corally parts guarantee perfect fit, correct specifications, and the performance your vehicle was designed to deliver, whereas aftermarket alternatives may introduce fit issues or inconsistent quality.
- Do I need any special tools to install these hinge pins? — Installation typically requires basic RC tools to remove the upper arm assembly and press out old hinge pins, then install the new ones. Most RC enthusiasts with basic mechanical knowledge can perform this maintenance in their workshop or at the track.
