Gunmetal centre skid for Wraith models

This aluminium centre skid plate is an aftermarket upgrade for Axial Wraith scale trucks. With a gunmetal finish it mounts beneath the chassis centre to shield the underside from scuffs and impacts found in rock crawling and trail running. The design aims to be low-profile so suspension movement and accessory clearance remain largely unaffected while supplying a durable wear surface in place of softer plastics.

The plate serves both protection and tuning roles: replacing a flexible or damaged centre section with a rigid metal plate gives a consistent contact surface that can alter how the chassis rides over obstacles. The influence is intentional but subtle, favouring predictable belly interactions rather than major handling changes.

Specifications

  • Item: Axial Racing Wraith Aluminum Centre Skid Plate (Gunmetal)
  • Material: Aluminum
  • Model Number: AW-23021-GU
  • Compatibility: Axial Wraith chassis

Use this plate when you need a robust centre undertray surface that matches standard Wraith mount points and improves repeatable protection on trails and rocks.

Do I need to remove the chassis to install this plate?

Most installs can be completed with the truck on its wheels or a simple stand; removing the chassis is not typically required but check access to centre mounting screws on your specific Wraith.

Will the plate corrode if used near salt water?

Aluminium resists rust but salt exposure can cause surface issues; rinse and dry the plate after coastal runs to preserve the gunmetal finish.

Is the plate compatible with skids or bash guards?

It is compatible with many common skid and bash guard arrangements that leave the centre mounting area accessible; verify clearances when combining multiple underbody parts.

What advantages does aluminium offer over plastic?

Aluminium provides a firmer, more wear-resistant contact surface that helps protect the chassis centre from repeated impacts and offers more consistent behaviour when traversing obstacles.
