Overview
The Traxxas 6-Piece Metric Nut Driver 'Master' Set TRX8719 is an essential tool kit designed for serious RC enthusiasts and professional mechanics working on Traxxas RC models throughout the UK. Whether you're maintaining a high-performance RC buggy, tuning your RC car at the track, or performing regular field service on your ready-to-run RC vehicle, this comprehensive nut driver set provides the precision tools you need to keep your models in peak condition. Traxxas premium tool kits are manufactured from exceptionally high quality materials to provide years of pro-level service, making this an investment that will serve you reliably whether you're a seasoned competitor or an enthusiast just getting started with RC car maintenance.
This Master Set stands out in the world of RC hobby tools because it combines professional-grade engineering with practical portability. The kit has been specifically designed for use with Traxxas models, meaning every driver size and specification has been carefully considered to match the fasteners found on Traxxas vehicles. The inclusion of a premium overmoulded handle, magnetic speed bit system, and heavy-duty carrying pouch means you can take this complete toolkit anywhere—to the track, to a club meet, or for trackside adjustments during racing. For anyone serious about maintaining their RC models to the highest standard, the TRX8719 is an indispensable addition to your workshop or pit box.
The engineering excellence that goes into every Traxxas tool is evident the moment you handle this set. Precision-ground, hardened-steel hex tips fit just right, preventing wear, rounding, and screw damage that can occur with inferior tools. This precision fitment is crucial when working on expensive RC components where damaged fasteners can lead to costly repairs or replacement parts. The thoughtfully engineered grip features an overmoulded rubber design for more power and excellent comfort during extended maintenance sessions, whilst the magnetic insert system enables fast bit changes so you can switch between sizes instantly without fumbling or dropping components.
Key Features
- Precision-ground hardened-steel metric nut drivers — Each driver is manufactured from precision-ground, hardened steel that has been engineered to provide exact fitment on Traxxas fasteners, preventing the wear, rounding, and damage that occurs with cheaper tools and ensuring your RC car maintains its integrity through countless maintenance sessions.
- Rubber overmoulded handle for superior grip and comfort — The ergonomic handle features rubber overmoulding that provides an enhanced grip surface and allows you to apply more torque comfortably during extended RC maintenance work, reducing hand fatigue and improving control during delicate adjustments.
- Precise fit magnetic insert holds the speed bit in the handle — The innovative magnetic insert system securely holds the speed bit in place during use and enables incredibly fast bit changes without dropping components, which is essential when working on RC models at the track or in the field where losing small parts can be costly.
- Standard 1/4 inch hex shank for use with power drill drivers — The universal 1/4 inch hex shank is compatible with virtually any powered screwdriver or drill driver, allowing you to speed up repetitive tasks and making this kit suitable for use in both workshop and field service scenarios on your RC vehicles.
- Heavy-duty pouch holds tools securely — The included heavy-duty carrying pouch keeps all six nut drivers and the premium handle organised and protected during transport, ensuring nothing gets lost when you're taking your RC maintenance kit to the track or between different RC venues across the UK.
- Custom embroidered Traxxas logo — The custom embroidered Traxxas branding adds professional quality and authenticity to the pouch, making it immediately recognisable and demonstrating this is genuine Traxxas premium equipment, not imitation tools.
- Clearly marked with laser etched sizes — Every driver is laser etched with its size specification, eliminating any confusion when selecting the correct tool for each RC fastener and speeding up your maintenance workflow significantly.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas 6-Piece Metric Nut Driver Master Set represents the pinnacle of RC tool engineering, combining premium materials with thoughtful design. The precision-ground, hardened-steel construction of each nut driver ensures that fasteners on your RC car are engaged with absolute precision, preventing the common problem of rounded bolts and stripped fasteners that plague users of lower-quality tools. The 6-piece set includes metric sizes of 4.0mm, 4.5mm, 5.0mm, 5.5mm, 7.0mm, and 8.0mm—covering all the common fastener sizes found on modern Traxxas RC vehicles from entry-level ready-to-run models through to professional-grade race cars. The medium-sized overmoulded handle provides the optimal balance between leverage and control, whilst the powerful magnetic insert system maintains speed bit security throughout use. The standard 1/4 inch hex shank design means these drivers are fully compatible with battery-powered drill drivers, allowing you to automate repetitive assembly and maintenance tasks whilst maintaining the precision fitment that Traxxas fasteners demand. The heavy-duty travel pouch utilises robust materials and secure storage compartments to protect your investment and keep every component organised during transport to RC tracks, clubs, and events throughout the UK.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the Traxxas TRX8719 nut driver set suitable for beginners working on RC cars? — Absolutely. Whilst this is a premium professional-grade toolkit, beginners benefit enormously from using quality tools from the start. The ergonomic overmoulded handle is comfortable for users of all experience levels, and the precision-ground drivers prevent damage to fasteners that might otherwise discourage newcomers. Starting with the right tools is an investment in both your RC models and your hobby experience.
- What makes Traxxas nut drivers better than generic metric drivers? — Traxxas nut drivers are precision-engineered specifically for Traxxas fasteners, meaning the hex tip geometry is optimised for exact fitment without the play and slippage that generic tools experience. The hardened-steel construction and precision-grinding process ensure consistent quality, whilst the overmoulded handle and magnetic system are designed by engineers familiar with RC maintenance needs. Using tools designed for your specific RC brand dramatically reduces the risk of stripped fasteners and rounded bolt heads.
- Can I use these nut drivers with a cordless drill or impact driver? — Yes, the standard 1/4 inch hex shank design means these drivers are fully compatible with any standard cordless drill driver or powered screwdriver. This is particularly useful for repetitive tasks like removing multiple fasteners during RC car teardowns or assembly. However, for delicate work where you need precise control, hand operation using the overmoulded handle provides superior feedback and prevents overtightening.
- Why is the magnetic insert system important for RC maintenance? — The magnetic insert system serves two critical functions: it prevents you from dropping small fasteners during RC work (which is invaluable when working at outdoor tracks), and it enables lightning-fast bit changes without fumbling around. In RC racing, every second counts when making trackside adjustments, and quick tool changes can make the difference between getting your model back in the race or missing your run.
- How do I maintain my Traxxas nut driver set to ensure longevity? — Traxxas premium tools are designed for years of pro-level service with minimal maintenance. Simply wipe the steel drivers clean after use to remove any debris or moisture, and store them in the included heavy-duty pouch when not in use. Avoid exposing the drivers to excessive moisture or corrosive environments, and never use them on fastener sizes other than those clearly marked, as this can damage the precision-ground tips. With proper care, this toolkit will provide decades of reliable service.
- What RC models are compatible with this 6-piece nut driver set? — The 6-piece set with sizes from 4.0mm to 8.0mm covers the fasteners found on virtually all modern Traxxas RC vehicles, including RC monster trucks, RC buggies, RC short course trucks, RC crawlers, and RC stadium trucks. If you own multiple Traxxas models, this single kit provides all the nut driver sizes you'll need for complete maintenance of your entire fleet.
