Overview
Upgrade the slipper clutch on your Traxxas Rustler or Stampede with the Hot Racing Hard Anodized 7075-T6 Aluminum Long Slipper Clutch Pads. CNC-machined from high-strength 7075-T6 aluminum and treated with hard anodizing for extreme heat resistance and surface hardness, these long-format slipper pads deliver 25% more friction surface area than stock pads — for more consistent clutch action under high-torque brushless setups.
Hard anodizing (also called hardcoat) is an electrochemically produced grey layer of hard aluminum oxide on the surface of aluminum components. The result is a dramatically harder, more wear-resistant friction surface that maintains consistent slipper action over far more runs than stock plated pads.
Key Features
- CNC-machined 7075-T6 aluminum construction
- Hard anodized for high-temperature performance
- Long-format pads with 25% more surface area than stock
- Direct upgrade for stock slipper clutch pads
- Three pads per pack (full slipper kit)
Performance Benefits
- 25% more friction surface area for more consistent slipper action
- Hard-anodized surface resists heat and wear
- Better consistency under high-torque brushless setups
- Longer service life than stock plated pads
- Smooth, predictable slipper engagement
Usage Notes
Re-set slipper tension after installation — new pads typically require slightly different tension than worn pads. Inspect pads periodically for wear or chipping and replace as a complete set. Clean the slipper hub and pressure plate before installation for best contact.
