Key Features
- Anodised Blue Aluminium Construction — The hubs are manufactured from premium anodised blue aluminium, which provides superior durability and corrosion resistance compared to standard materials, ensuring your investment lasts through countless racing sessions and adverse weather conditions.
- Laser-Etched FT Logo — Each hub features a precision laser-etched Factory Team logo, giving your RC buggy a professional competition appearance whilst also serving as authentication of genuine Factory Team components.
- Dual Set Screws for Security — Two included set screws further secure the hub and hub insert to the hinge pin, creating a play-free assembly that maintains consistent handling characteristics run after run, which is essential for reliable performance during competitive racing.
- Play-Free Assembly Design — The engineering of these hubs eliminates unwanted movement and flex in the rear axle assembly, translating to more predictable handling, better steering response and improved overall vehicle control during both high-speed runs and technical corners.
- Direct Replacement Compatibility — These hubs serve as a direct replacement for the AS91857 RC10B6.2 rear hubs, making the upgrade process straightforward and hassle-free without requiring additional modifications or adjustments.
- Lightweight Performance — At just 10.3 grams each, these hubs maintain minimal unsprung weight, which helps preserve suspension response and handling dynamics whilst delivering the precision benefits of aluminium construction.
Technical Performance
The TEAM ASSOCIATED FT B6.2/B6.3 REAR HUBS deliver the precision engineering expected from Factory Team components. Manufactured from anodised aluminium rather than plastic, these hubs provide significantly improved rigidity and durability without adding excessive weight. Each hub weighs just 10.3 grams, ensuring they don't negatively impact the overall weight distribution or handling characteristics of your RC buggy. The anodised finish isn't merely decorative – anodising provides a hardened surface layer that increases resistance to wear, corrosion and the elements, which is particularly important for UK RC enthusiasts who may expose their vehicles to wet conditions. The dual set screw design eliminates play between the hub, hub insert and hinge pin, creating a solid, consistent assembly that maintains its characteristics throughout extended racing sessions. This precision engineering translates directly to more predictable handling, better steering linearity and improved cornering performance, making these hubs an essential upgrade for anyone serious about competitive RC racing or demanding high-performance consistency from their Team Associated buggy.

This leads to improved steering linearity, more predictable cornering and better overall handling consistency run after run – essential for competitive racing.
- Why are set screws included? — The two included set screws secure the hub and hub insert firmly to the hinge pin, preventing any movement or play that could develop through intensive use. This maintains a perfectly consistent assembly and ensures reliable performance during every run.
- Are these suitable for beginners? — Whilst these are premium Factory Team components designed for competitive use, any RC enthusiast looking to upgrade their Team Associated buggy can benefit from the improved precision and durability. However, they're specifically designed for those seeking competitive-grade performance rather than casual basher setups.
