Key Features
- 12mm Wheel Hex Design — The 12mm hex diameter provides a standard fitment that ensures compatibility with FTX wheel rims designed for this specification, delivering secure and stable wheel mounting that won't slip or rotate during demanding trail driving or high-speed runs.
- 2x10mm Pin Configuration — The dual 2x10mm pin arrangement locks the wheel firmly onto the hex, preventing accidental wheel loss during aggressive cornering, jumps, or rocky terrain navigation, which is essential for trail crawlers that face unpredictable obstacles.
- Four-Piece Set — This pack contains four complete wheel hexes, providing a full set to replace all four wheels on your RC crawler or offering spare hexes for future maintenance, ensuring you're never stranded without replacement parts during a race or trail session.
- Genuine FTX OEM Part — As an original equipment manufacturer spare part, this is the authentic component specified by FTX engineers for the Outback and Hi-Rock models, guaranteeing proper fit, finish, and long-term reliability compared to aftermarket alternatives.
- Proven Compatibility — Specifically engineered for the FTX Outback Hi-Rock 4x4 RTR 1/10 Trail Rock Crawler and related FTX Outback Fury models, this part integrates perfectly with your existing drivetrain without requiring modifications or adjustments.
- Durable Construction — Built to withstand the forces and stresses of competitive rock crawling, technical trail driving, and everyday bashing, these wheel hexes maintain their integrity through countless cycles of rotational stress and impact loads.
Technical Performance
The FTX Outback Fury and Hi-Rock wheel hex assembly represents precision engineering designed specifically for 1/10 scale RC crawlers and off-road vehicles. The 12mm hex diameter standard is widely recognised across the RC industry for 1/10 scale drivetrain applications, and FTX has engineered their wheel rims to work perfectly with this measurement. The 2x10mm pin system provides exceptional holding power, with the dual-pin design distributing load forces evenly across the hex face to prevent stripping or deformation under the extreme torque generated during rock crawling. Whether you're running lightweight lithium polymer batteries that deliver high-speed performance or traditional nickel-metal hydride packs, these hexes maintain their performance characteristics. The robust construction ensures that whether you're navigating technical boulder gardens, high-speed trail runs, or casual bashers across park terrain, the wheel hex assembly maintains its structural integrity. FTX's commitment to quality means these spares are manufactured to the same exacting standards as the complete vehicles, ensuring seamless integration with your existing RC setup and long-term reliability measured in hundreds of charging cycles and countless hours of off-road action.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these FTX wheel hexes fit my Outback Hi-Rock 4x4 RTR crawler? — Yes, these hexes are specifically designed as genuine spare parts for the FTX Outback Hi-Rock 4x4 RTR 1/10 Trail Rock Crawler. They provide perfect fitment with no modifications required, as they are the original equipment manufacturer spares specified in FTX technical documentation.
- How many wheel hexes do I need to replace? — A standard 1/10 scale RC vehicle has four wheels, so this four-piece pack is perfectly sized to replace all four wheel hubs if needed, or you can keep additional sets as spares for future maintenance and repairs.
- What does the 12mm and 2x10mm specification mean? — The 12mm refers to the hex diameter which fits into your wheel rims, whilst the 2x10mm describes the two pins (each 10mm long) that lock the wheel securely onto the hex to prevent it from rotating or sliding off during driving.

Genuine parts ensure perfect fitment, maintain warranty coverage, and provide the durability and reliability you can depend on for long-term RC use.
- How often will I need to replace my wheel hexes? — With proper maintenance and normal use, FTX wheel hexes last a considerable time. However, if you notice stripped splines, cracking, or wheels that don't sit flush, it's time to replace them. Keeping spares on hand means you're never without a vehicle to drive.
- Can I use these hexes on other FTX models? — These hexes are specifically compatible with the FTX Outback and Hi-Rock 1/10 scale models. Other FTX vehicles may use different hex sizes, so always check your vehicle's specification before purchasing spares.
