Description

– Use Twist Hubs to easily and securely mount our FingerTech Foam Wheels. Foam wheels are the preferred choice for combat robots because they absorb impacts and save your drive motor gearboxes.
– Upgraded lengthwise fins ensure the tire cannot spin on the hub even if the tire isn’t compressed by the washer.
– Available in two widths; 0.50in (thin) and 0.75in (wide)

Specifications:
– Anodized 6061 aluminum for high strength and low weight.
– The foam tire is held tightly by a custom locking washer, which must be pressed in and turned 90 degrees to release.
– The hex flange will allow you to keep driving even if the locking washer is destroyed.
– The hub is secured to the motor shaft by a strong 8-32 setscrew.
– Available with 3mm, 4mm, and 6mm shaft bore, but can be drilled out as big as 6.35mm (0.25in).
