Overview
The ARRMA Slipper Set (61T, 0.8M) Z-ARA311102 is an essential drivetrain upgrade for RC enthusiasts looking to maintain peak performance in their ARRMA vehicles. Whether you're running an ARRMA Gorgon monster truck, FURY short course truck, or other compatible model, this pre-assembled slipper clutch set is engineered to protect your transmission whilst delivering reliable power transfer. As a dedicated RC car UK retailer, we understand that drivetrain components are critical to longevity and performance, which is why this ARRMA genuine spare part is a must-have addition to any RC basher's workshop.
Designed for durability and ease of installation, this slipper set arrives fully assembled and ready to drop into your vehicle without additional tuning or complex setup procedures. The 61-tooth composite spur gear paired with the precision-engineered slipper shaft creates a robust drivetrain solution that handles demanding off-road conditions whilst maintaining consistent performance across varied terrain. ARRMA's reputation for quality RC parts means you're investing in genuine engineering rather than aftermarket compromises.
This is the ideal replacement part for users whose original slipper clutch has worn down, or for those seeking to upgrade their transmission performance and reliability. The pre-built, ready-to-install design makes it perfect for weekend bashers and serious RC enthusiasts alike who want to get back on the track quickly without extended downtime.
Key Features
- 61-Tooth Composite Spur Gear — The 61-tooth configuration provides optimal power delivery and acceleration characteristics whilst the durable composite construction balances lightweight performance with impact resistance, ensuring your slipper clutch maintains reliability through demanding RC sessions.
- 0.8 Module Specification — The 0.8MOD (module) gear specification is precisely engineered to match ARRMA factory standards, ensuring perfect mesh compatibility and smooth power transmission without gear noise or slippage issues.
- Red Anodised Aluminium Slipper Shaft — Built around a strong red anodised aluminium shaft that resists corrosion and wear, this component is the mechanical heart of the slipper clutch and provides the structural rigidity needed for consistent performance across multiple RC sessions.
- Pre-Assembled and Ready to Install — This slipper set arrives completely assembled and pre-set, eliminating the need for complex tuning or disassembly; simply remove your worn slipper and install this unit for immediate performance restoration.
- Composite Tension Nut — The moulded composite nut allows you to adjust and set the spring tension for consistent slipper engagement, giving you fine control over how aggressively the clutch engages under load and protecting downstream drivetrain components from shock loads.
- Genuine ARRMA Component — As an authentic ARRMA part, this slipper set is manufactured to factory specifications and designed specifically to work seamlessly with ARRMA vehicles, guaranteeing compatibility and performance that matches your original equipment.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Slipper Set (61T, 0.8M) represents a critical upgrade in your RC vehicle's transmission system. The slipper clutch serves as a mechanical safeguard, allowing the spur gear to slip under extreme load situations rather than transmitting catastrophic shock directly into your vehicle's gearbox, differentials, and motor. This protective function extends the lifespan of expensive RC components and prevents the sudden, costly failures that can occur during high-impact collisions or aggressive acceleration. The 61-tooth, 0.8-module composite spur gear has been engineered to provide the optimal balance between durability and weight distribution for ARRMA's range of 1/10 scale vehicles, including the Gorgon monster truck and FURY short course truck models. The red anodised aluminium shaft provides exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, resisting the twisting forces and rotational stress generated by brushless motors whilst maintaining the precise tolerances necessary for smooth mesh engagement with your motor's pinion gear. The composite construction of the spur gear itself offers superior impact absorption compared to pure metal alternatives, reducing vibration and noise whilst protecting against the micro-fracturing that can occur when plastic gears contact metal pinions at high RPM. The pre-assembled design means all critical components—including the spring assembly and tension adjustment system—arrive perfectly calibrated from the factory, removing variables that could otherwise affect drivetrain consistency and reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does a slipper clutch do and why do I need to replace mine? — A slipper clutch protects your RC vehicle's transmission by allowing the spur gear to slip under extreme load rather than transferring destructive forces to your gearbox, differentials, and motor. Over time, the spring tension weakens and the gear teeth wear down, reducing this protection and causing the clutch to engage inconsistently. Replacing your slipper set restores this critical protection and improves acceleration response.
- Will this slipper set work with my ARRMA Gorgon monster truck? — Yes, this Z-ARA311102 slipper set is specifically designed for ARRMA Gorgon models across all variants, whether you're running the brushed MEGA 550 version or a brushless configuration. It is also compatible with ARRMA FURY short course trucks and other compatible models. Always verify your vehicle model against the compatibility list above before ordering.
- Is this part ready to install straight out of the box? — Absolutely. This slipper set arrives completely pre-assembled and pre-adjusted, requiring no additional tuning or setup. Simply remove your existing worn slipper clutch and install this unit using standard RC tools—no complex procedures or specialist knowledge required, making it ideal for weekend bashers and experienced RC enthusiasts alike.
- What does the 0.8M specification mean? — The 0.8M refers to the gear module, a standard measurement in gear engineering that defines tooth size and spacing. A 0.8-module gear is specifically engineered to mesh perfectly with ARRMA's factory pinion gears and transmission components, ensuring smooth engagement, minimal backlash, and reliable power delivery without noise or slippage.
- Can I adjust the spring tension on this slipper clutch? — Yes. The moulded composite nut included in this set allows you to fine-tune the spring tension, giving you control over how aggressively the clutch engages and when it begins to slip under load. This adjustment capability helps you customise the drivetrain characteristics to match your driving style and track conditions.
- How long will this slipper set last before I need to replace it again? — With proper maintenance and normal use, a quality ARRMA slipper set typically lasts many months of regular RC activity. Longevity depends on driving intensity, track conditions, and how aggressively you bash. Regular inspection will show when gear teeth begin to wear noticeably, indicating replacement is approaching.
- What is the difference between this 61T slipper set and other ARRMA transmission parts? — ARRMA offers various transmission upgrades, including different gear ratios and materials. This 61-tooth set is designed for balanced performance across multiple ARRMA models. Other options may feature different tooth counts for specific performance characteristics (higher teeth for lower gear ratios and higher top speeds, lower teeth for better acceleration). The 61-tooth specification represents ARRMA's recommended setup for optimal performance across their 1/10 scale range.
