Overview
The HoBao DC-1/EPX Washer 3.1 x 6 x 0.5mm (10 Pack) H230062 is an essential spare part for RC enthusiasts maintaining and servicing their HoBao RC vehicles. Whether you're a seasoned RC car UK competitor or a weekend basher enjoying your favourite remote control model, having quality replacement washers on hand is crucial for keeping your RC buggy, truck or crawler running smoothly. These precision-engineered washers are specifically designed for HoBao models and are a must-have consumable for any RC hobby enthusiast who wants to maintain their vehicle's performance and longevity.
Washers might seem like small components, but they play a vital role in the mechanical integrity of your RC car. They distribute loads evenly across fastening points, prevent damage to softer materials, and help maintain proper spacing between components. The HoBao DC-1/EPX Washer set provides ten individual washers with precise dimensions of 3.1mm inner diameter, 6mm outer diameter, and 0.5mm thickness. This specific sizing makes them perfect for numerous assembly points throughout HoBao RC vehicles, from suspension geometry adjustments to drivetrain assembly. For anyone serious about maintaining their remote control vehicle fleet and ensuring consistent performance on the track or bash course, these HoBao washers are an affordable and practical addition to your spares box.
Sourcing OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) replacement parts like these HoBao washers ensures that your RC model maintains factory specifications and performance standards. Rather than using generic washers that might not fit correctly or provide adequate support, these purpose-designed parts guarantee compatibility with your HoBao RC vehicle. Stock these in your workshop and you'll always be prepared for repairs, maintenance or custom setup adjustments without waiting for delivery when a washer needs replacement during a session.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these HoBao washers compatible with all HoBao RC models? — These washers are specifically designed for HoBao DC-1 and EPX models. While the dimensions may be suitable for other vehicles, we recommend checking your model's specifications or contacting our RC Model Shop team to confirm compatibility with your particular RC buggy or truck before ordering.
- Why do I need replacement washers for my RC car? — Washers are functional components that distribute loads across fastening points and prevent damage to softer materials. During normal use, maintenance, or when adjusting suspension geometry and drivetrain settings, washers may be lost, worn or require replacement. Having spares ensures you can keep your RC vehicle in optimal condition without delays waiting for new parts.
- How many washers do I get in this pack? — This pack contains ten individual HoBao washers, providing multiple spares for various assembly points throughout your RC model or for building multiple RC vehicles with the same specifications.
- What are the exact dimensions of these washers? — The HoBao DC-1/EPX washers measure 3.1mm inner diameter, 6mm outer diameter, and 0.5mm in thickness. These precise dimensions are engineered specifically for HoBao RC vehicles to ensure proper fit and load distribution.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — This is a spare parts item rather than a complete RC vehicle, so it's most useful for those already familiar with RC vehicle maintenance and assembly. If you're new to the RC hobby in the UK, you might want to start with a complete ready-to-run RC car and then stock up on spares like these washers as you develop your servicing skills.
- Where can I use these washers on my HoBao RC model? — These washers can be used throughout your HoBao vehicle wherever the 3.1mm diameter fastening points require load distribution and spacing, from suspension assembly to drivetrain components. Consult your HoBao RC model's instruction manual for specific application points.
