Overview
Lock your wheels down securely and protect your axle ends with the Hot Racing Aluminum 17mm Friction Dirt-Shield Wheel Nuts. CNC-machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and anodized black with a laser-engraved Hot Racing logo, these capped wheel nuts are designed for use on Arrma 1/8 17mm wheel hubs — combining a rubber O-ring friction-grip design with closed-end dirt protection in a single clean upgrade.
The closed-end cap protects your stub axles from dirt ingress and shields the axle ends from impact damage when scuffed against rocks, jumps, or curbs. The rubber O-ring inside provides sure-grip retention that resists loosening during hard driving — critical for high-speed and aggressive bash situations.
