Aluminium axle upgrade built for SRX8

The Serpent 600877 - SRX8 axles use 7075 T6 aluminium with a hard anodised finish to help resist wear. At about 60% lighter than standard spring steel axles, they cut down rotating mass to help the car feel more responsive under acceleration.

Details and specifications

Material: 7075 T6 Aluminum
Weight Reduction: Circa 60% lighter versus steel
Compatibility: Compatible with Serpent SRX8 chassis
Quantity: 2 pieces included per pack

Installation follows the same steps as the factory steel axles, making the upgrade straightforward. To fully replace the vehicle's axles, you will need two packs.

How do these axles affect lap times?

Lower rotating mass can improve acceleration and corner exit speed, which may translate to quicker lap times depending on track layout and driver setup.

Will anodise wear off with use?

The hard anodise provides strong surface protection, but like any finish it can show wear after repeated contact or heavy impacts. Regular inspection is advised.

Is there a risk of bending with aluminium?

7075 T6 is a high strength aluminium alloy, but aluminium behaves differently to spring steel under severe impact. Inspect axles after crashes and replace if any bend or deformation is visible.

Can I fit these using standard tools?

Yes, the axles are a direct fit and use the same assembly method as the original steel parts, so no special tools are required.
