Practical Brass Hex Hub Upgrade for TRX-4

JAZRIDER JR-TRX417-5MM provides Traxxas TRX-4 owners with a user friendly brass wheel hex adapter that increases mass at the wheel periphery to improve traction and slow speed stability. The 12mm hex interface and 5mm thickness are tuned to give a secure mechanical fit.

Material and Fit Considerations

Brass is selected for predictable weight distribution and corrosion resistance for normal hobby use. The 5mm material thickness ensures consistent seating against the wheel face and reduces the chance of slippage during high torque crawling maneuvers.

Application and Practical Use

These hubs suit trail drivers who want a straightforward, durable upgrade. They are compatible with standard TRX-4 wheel hex patterns and are intended to provide a tangible handling improvement without complex modification.

What are the core benefits of adding brass hubs to a TRX-4?

Adding brass increases unsprung weight at the wheel, which improves tyre contact and stability during low speed crawling and when negotiating uneven surfaces.

Any fitment checks before committing to trail use?

Confirm hex alignment, wheel clearance with bulkheads and links, and perform a short bench test to ensure there is no binding or tyre rub before heading out.

Maintenance recommendations for brass hubs?

Periodically clean mating surfaces and inspect for wear. Apply a light protective oil if storing the vehicle to limit surface tarnish on brass components.
