Technical drive hex overview

This drive hex is a 2 pcs replacement intended for TRAXXAS Slash 4x4 configurations that utilise SSLA1277RH or SSLA1280FH drive shafts. It is supplied for routine maintenance and quick track repairs.

Fit and function: engineered to match the geometry of the listed shaft codes, the hex restores the interface between wheel hub and drive shaft. Confirm hub clearance and retain original fastening hardware where feasible to preserve bearing preload and alignment.

Installation notes: remove wheel and hub assembly when fitting, confirm full axial seating on the shaft, and validate wheel centring after refit. Even small changes to hex seating or wheel offset can influence drivetrain characteristics, so re-check slipper and differential adjustments as required.

Tuning implications: replacing worn hexes reduces hub play and maintains consistent wheel engagement during acceleration and cornering, supporting predictable handling during testing and competition.

What are the confirmed shaft interfaces?

The hexes are specified to work with SSLA1277RH and SSLA1280FH shaft codes; verify your current shaft marking before fitting.

Recommended installation checks?

Ensure full seating on the shaft, correct retention torque, and confirm free rotation and wheel centring after refit to avoid binding.

Maintenance advice for longevity?

Inspect hexes after impacts and replace when you detect lateral play; replacing both sides together helps preserve symmetrical handling.
