Overview
The FTX Outback Fury Gasket 6.8x5x2 (6pc) is an essential replacement spare part designed specifically for FTX trail crawlers and rock crawlers. Whether you own an FTX Outback Fury or an FTX Hi-Rock 4x4, this genuine OEM gasket set ensures your vehicle maintains peak performance and reliability during off-road adventures. These gaskets are critical drivetrain components that prevent fluid leakage and maintain proper seal integrity throughout your RC car's transmission and engine systems. For enthusiasts in the UK looking to keep their FTX RC crawler in top condition, this spare part is an indispensable addition to your maintenance kit.
Gaskets are wear items that require periodic replacement, especially if you regularly bash your RC car or push it to its limits on challenging terrain. Over time, exposure to oil, heat cycles and vibration can cause gaskets to harden and lose their sealing properties, leading to potential leaks that can damage internal components. By stocking genuine FTX replacement gaskets, you can perform routine maintenance quickly and affordably without needing to purchase complete assemblies or send your vehicle for professional servicing. This pack of six gaskets provides excellent value and ensures you have spares on hand for multiple repairs or to share with fellow RC enthusiasts in the UK RC hobby community.
RC Model Shop stocks genuine FTX spare parts for all FTX models, including the Outback Fury range and Hi-Rock 4x4 crawlers. Whether you're a seasoned competitor, a weekend basher enjoying off-road trails, or someone new to the RC hobby looking to maintain your equipment properly, having access to authentic OEM spares like these gaskets is essential for long-term ownership satisfaction. Order with confidence knowing you're getting genuine FTX components that are engineered to exact specifications for perfect fitment and performance.

Technical Performance
The FTX Outback Fury Gasket 6.8x5x2 (6pc) represents the engineering precision that FTX brings to their trail crawler range. These gaskets are manufactured from high-quality elastomer materials specifically formulated to withstand the demanding conditions found in RC off-road driving, including exposure to mineral oils, synthetic fluids, temperature fluctuations and constant vibration. The 6.8x5x2 millimetre specification has been precisely engineered to seal drivetrain components on FTX's leading-edge suspension and transmission systems found in the Outback Fury and Hi-Rock models. Proper gasket sealing is critical for maintaining fluid containment within transmission housings and engine covers, preventing seepage that could eventually lead to component damage or performance degradation. The elastomer composition remains flexible across the temperature range experienced during RC driving, from cold storage conditions through the heat generated during extended bashing sessions on UK trails and terrain. Each gasket in this six-pack is individually manufactured to ensure consistency and reliability, making this an ideal spare parts selection for regular maintenance or emergency repairs. Whether you're preparing your RC crawler for competition events, undertaking preventative maintenance between bash sessions, or recovering from impact damage during aggressive driving, these genuine FTX gaskets will restore your vehicle's sealed integrity and protect internal drivetrain components from contamination.

Frequently Asked Questions

- Why do I need to replace gaskets on my RC crawler? — Gaskets are wear items that degrade over time due to heat cycles, oil exposure and vibration. Replacing them during regular maintenance prevents fluid leaks that could damage your transmission, motor or other internal components, extending the lifespan of your expensive RC investment.

Casual weekend drivers might replace gaskets annually or during major overhauls, whilst competitive racers or aggressive bashers may need replacements every few months or after crashes that compress components.

- What is the difference between FTX genuine gaskets and aftermarket alternatives? — Genuine FTX gaskets are engineered to original specifications with precise dimensions and material formulations that match your vehicle's design.
