Overview
The HOBAO HYPER 10SC 2.0 Anti-Loosening Ball Studs 16.5mm (H11405) are precision suspension components designed specifically for the Hobao Hyper 10SC 2.0 electric RC truck range. These ball studs are essential replacement parts for any serious RC enthusiast running a short course truck in the UK, whether you're a weekend basher enjoying recreational driving or a competitive racer pushing your vehicle to its limits on the track. The anti-loosening design ensures that your suspension geometry remains consistent throughout extended driving sessions, preventing the frustrating loss of performance that can occur when standard ball joints work loose over time.
If you're searching for quality RC car UK spares that will keep your Hobao running at peak performance, these ball studs represent genuine factory parts engineered to exact specifications. The anti-loosening feature is particularly valuable in short course truck racing, where rough terrain, high-speed impacts, and constant direction changes place significant stress on suspension components. By choosing these official Hobao spares, you're investing in reliability and maintaining the precise handling characteristics that make the Hyper 10SC 2.0 such a competitive platform in the 1/10 scale ready to run RC truck category.
These ball studs are compatible across the entire Hobao Hyper 10SC 2.0 lineup, whether you're running the electric RTR models with different body colours or the ARR clear body variant. Keeping genuine replacement parts in your spares box is essential for maintaining your RC truck and ensuring you can get back on the track quickly when wear and tear requires component replacement.
Key Features
- Anti-Loosening Design — The integrated anti-loosening mechanism prevents ball studs from working loose during aggressive driving, maintaining consistent suspension geometry and handling characteristics that are critical for competitive performance and predictable vehicle behaviour in both casual and racing scenarios.
- Universal Application — These ball studs are engineered as universal components suitable for both rear upper suspension arms and steering arms, providing flexibility in your spare parts collection and reducing the number of different part numbers you need to stock for comprehensive spares coverage.
- Steel Construction — Manufactured from high-quality steel, these ball studs offer excellent durability and resistance to wear, ensuring they maintain their precise dimensions and functionality even under the demanding conditions of regular RC truck driving and competitive racing.
- Optimised Diameter — The Ø5.8mm ball diameter is specifically engineered to match the suspension and steering attachment points on Hobao Hyper 10SC 2.0 models, ensuring a perfect fit and reliable connection that maintains the vehicle's designed handling characteristics.
- Precise 16.5mm Length — The carefully calculated 16.5mm length ensures proper geometry alignment in both upper suspension arm and steering arm positions, maintaining the correct angles for optimal handling, stability, and predictable vehicle response.
- Genuine Factory Parts — As official Hobao components, these ball studs meet the manufacturer's exact specifications and quality standards, ensuring compatibility and performance that aftermarket alternatives cannot match.
Technical Performance
The HOBAO HYPER 10SC 2.0 Anti-Loosening Ball Studs represent precision engineering designed specifically for the demands of 1/10 scale short course truck racing. Constructed from durable steel with a carefully engineered Ø5.8mm ball diameter and 16.5mm total length, these components are optimised for the Hyper 10SC 2.0 platform's suspension geometry requirements. The anti-loosening technology is particularly significant for short course truck applications, where the constant barrage of jumps, landings, and aggressive cornering creates continuous vibration and stress that would cause standard ball joints to loosen over time. This feature directly impacts your vehicle's handling consistency, steering response, and overall performance reliability. Whether you're running one of the RTR models with Orange/Black, Blue/White, Blue, or Grey body options, or the ARR clear body variant, these ball studs maintain the precise suspension kinematics that make the Hyper 10SC 2.0 competitive in ready to run RC truck racing. The steel construction ensures longevity and dimensional stability, preventing the kind of wear that would degrade suspension performance and create unpredictable handling characteristics mid-race or during extended driving sessions. For any serious Hobao Hyper 10SC 2.0 operator in the UK, maintaining a set of genuine replacement ball studs in your spares kit is essential for reliability and performance consistency.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between standard ball studs and anti-loosening ball studs? — Anti-loosening ball studs feature an integrated mechanism that prevents them from working loose during driving, maintaining consistent suspension geometry. Standard ball joints can gradually loosen through vibration and impact, which gradually degrades handling and steering response. The anti-loosening design in this Hobao component ensures your vehicle maintains its precise handling characteristics throughout extended driving sessions and competitive racing.
- Are these ball studs compatible with all Hobao Hyper 10SC 2.0 models? — Yes, these ball studs (H11405) are compatible with all Hobao Hyper 10SC 2.0 variants, including the HB-SC2E-C60BRG (Orange/Black), HB-SC2E-C60BUW (Blue/White), HB-SC2E (Clear Body ARR), HB-SC2E-C60BU (Blue), and HB-SC2E-C60DG (Grey) models.
- How often should I replace my ball studs? — Ball stud replacement frequency depends on driving intensity, frequency, and terrain. Competitive racers may replace them every few months, while recreational drivers might go a year or longer. You should inspect them regularly and replace them if you notice any looseness, visible wear, or handling changes.
- Can I use these ball studs in both suspension and steering applications? — Yes, these ball studs are designed as universal components and can be used in both rear upper suspension arms and steering arms, provided the attachment points and geometry match your application.
- What makes genuine Hobao parts better than aftermarket alternatives? — Genuine Hobao parts are engineered to exact factory specifications and quality standards, ensuring perfect fit, compatibility, and performance. Aftermarket alternatives may have dimensional variations that affect handling and reliability, making genuine parts the preferred choice for serious RC enthusiasts and competitive racers.
