Technical Performance
The HoBao Aluminium Collar 3.2x10mm is a precision-engineered fastening component manufactured from high-quality aluminium that balances weight savings with structural integrity. The 3.2mm diameter bore is precisely machined to accommodate HoBao's standard shaft sizes, while the 10mm length provides adequate surface area for secure seating and proper spacing of assembly components. Aluminium construction offers superior corrosion resistance compared to steel alternatives, making these collars ideal for UK RC enthusiasts who expose their vehicles to wet conditions, damp storage environments, and saltwater coastal racing locations. The material's inherent vibration-dampening properties also contribute to smoother operation and reduced stress transmission through the chassis structure. These collars are used throughout HoBao's 1/8 scale buggy and truggy platforms, where they serve as critical positioning and spacing elements in the suspension, drivetrain, and chassis assembly. Whether you are rebuilding worn components, replacing damaged collars, or performing preventative maintenance on your HoBao RC car, these genuine spares ensure your vehicle maintains the precision tolerances and alignment that HoBao engineers designed into these exceptional 1/8 scale RC models.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the purpose of an aluminium collar in an RC buggy or truggy? — Aluminium collars serve as precision spacing and fastening components that maintain proper alignment and positioning of shafts, suspension linkages, and drivetrain elements throughout your HoBao RC car's chassis assembly. They prevent components from shifting or moving under the vibration and stress of high-speed operation, ensuring consistent performance and longevity.
- Are these HoBao collars compatible with other RC car brands? — These collars are specifically manufactured by HoBao to work with their 1/8 scale Hyper series buggies and truggies. While the 3.2x10mm dimensions may superficially match other brands, we recommend using genuine HoBao spares to ensure precise fitment and avoid potential alignment issues or performance problems with your RC model.
- How many collars does my HoBao RC buggy or truggy need? — The exact number of collars required depends on your specific HoBao model and the components you are assembling or rebuilding. This pack of 10 provides multiple spares, allowing you to replace collars at several assembly points or keep backups for future maintenance without needing to reorder repeatedly.
- Why should I use genuine HoBao spare parts instead of generic alternatives? — Genuine HoBao components are manufactured to the exact specifications your vehicle was designed for, ensuring perfect fit, correct alignment tolerances, and reliable performance. Generic alternatives may have slightly different dimensions, material properties, or finish that could result in poor fitment, misalignment, or premature wear of other components.
- Where can I find documentation showing which HoBao models use these H87044S collars? — These collars are compatible with numerous HoBao 1/8 scale models including the Hyper Cage Buggy RTR (Mach 28 and Hyper 21 variants), Hyper SS 1/8 RTR Buggy, Hyper SS Nitro RTR Off-Road Truggy, Hyper SSTe Truggy, Hyper VS2 Nitro and Electric models, and related Hyper series vehicles. Consult your specific model's manual or parts diagram to confirm the exact number and location of these collars.

- For orders above £120, we offer delivery to most mainland UK addresses. For orders under £120, we can still deliver to Northern Ireland and the outlying isles, as long as the item can be sent by Royal Mail, weighs less than 30kg, and fits within 61cm × 46cm × 46cm. Some highland and remote areas may carry an extra delivery charge as couriers often apply surcharges in these locations. If you live in one of these areas, feel free to contact us before ordering so we can confirm the delivery options and costs for you.
- Most of our products include delivery in the price. If your order is under £90, a small delivery fee will apply but do not worry this will always be clearly shown at checkout before you complete your purchase.

Orders are dispatched Monday to Friday only. Some items may take a little longer and if that is the case we will always show the expected delivery time on the product page.
- If your order includes items with different dispatch times we will normally wait and send everything together once all items are in stock. If one of the items is going to take a while we will give you the choice either wait for everything to arrive or let us send the available items now and deliver the rest later. It is up to you.
- We use trusted delivery partners to make sure your order gets to you safely and on time. We use DPD for next working day deliveries and Royal Mail for the 2 day option.
- As soon as your order is on its way we will send you a tracking number by email. If you provide your mobile number at checkout we will also send delivery updates straight to your phone so you can keep an eye on progress.
