TRAXXAS 1/8 X-Maxx Aluminium Wheel Hex Claw (+3mm) by GPM TXM006/+3  [TXM006/+3]

Wheel hex claw for X-Maxx

This aluminium wheel hex claw is an RC-scale accessory designed to work with the TRAXXAS 1/8 X‑Maxx platform, sold as a pair (2 pcs). It addresses wheel-to-hex fitment and helps stabilise the wheel and tyre engagement to reduce unwanted rotation of the wheel relative to the hex under load.

GPM supplies this part in a +3mm offset version, with the product family offering selectable thicknesses including 1mm and 3mm; the thicker option shifts wheel position outward and can be used as part of ride-width or stance adjustments. The piece is machined from aluminium for rigidity compared with stock plastic hexes.

Installation is typical for wheel hex replacements: remove wheel and existing hex, fit the aluminium hex to the axle or hub, and secure with the original retaining hardware. Use the correct hex driver and torque settings for your wheel screws to avoid thread or hub damage. The component functions as a tuning item rather than a primary suspension or drivetrain part, so confirm fit before extended runs.

Choose the aluminium +3mm hex claw when you need a firmer wheel-seat and modest outward offset for tuning stance or reducing wheel slip under high torque conditions on TRAXXAS X‑Maxx rigs.
