Mini 4WD 60mm Reinforced Shafts, Black (4pcs)

The Hobby Hideaway Verdict: Bulletproof Your Wheel Alignment! Bent axles are one of the most common causes of speed loss on the track. These 60mm Reinforced Black Shafts are a crucial durability upgrade over the stock silver shafts included in most standard kits. At Hobby Hideaway, we consider these a mandatory upgrade for racers who are pushing their machines with faster motors and sending them over massive jumps, ensuring you survive your heats without a dreaded wheel wobble.

Built for Hard Landings When your Mini 4WD lands a jump slightly off-kilter, the impact forces travel directly through your wheels and into the shafts. Standard shafts can bend under this stress, causing immediate drivetrain friction and making the car unstable. These reinforced steel shafts are hardened to withstand those harsh impacts, keeping your wheels perfectly straight and your power delivery smooth from the starting line to the finish.

Key Features & Technical Specs:

• Heavy-Duty Construction: Made from reinforced, hardened steel to resist bending during high-speed crashes and jump landings.

• Standard 60mm Length: The perfect fit for standard-tread chassis platforms (including VZ, AR, MA, MS, FM-A, and more).

• Sleek Finish: Features a stealthy black finish that adds a pro-level look to your chassis while providing mild corrosion resistance.

• Value Pack: Includes 4 individual shafts, giving you enough hardware to fully upgrade two cars, or keeping plenty of spares in your pit box.

Hobby Hideaway Pro Tip: Because these shafts are so rigid, they are absolutely perfect for building a "pierced wheel" setup! By drilling entirely through the hub of your wheels, you can run these reinforced shafts all the way through to the outside edge. This prevents the wheels from slipping off the axle during aggressive racing and maximizes the surface area gripping the shaft. Just make sure to press your wheels on as straight as possible!
