Lightweight centre front shaft details

The XRAY 345711 front middle shaft is an RC replacement component, CNC-machined from HUDY Spring Steel for drivers seeking reduced rotating mass alongside durable bearing contact surfaces.

It has been machined and reduced by 55% in mass versus the standard #XR-345710 front middle shaft while preserving section strength and lowering inertia. Contact regions are finished to improve wear characteristics and support longer service life for bearing interfaces.

Used as a tuning and replacement item, the lightweight front middle shaft cuts rotating mass without compromising the part's structural durability, enabling more consistent handling under acceleration and through corners encountered on the track.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

What is the part made of and why was that material chosen?

This shaft is made from HUDY Spring Steel, selected for its combination of strength and wear properties at bearing contact points.

How much lighter is the 345711 compared to the original XR-345710?

The component is 55% lighter than the standard #XR-345710 front middle shaft, delivering a clear reduction in rotational inertia.

Does this improve bearing life or just reduce weight?

The finished bearing contact areas are intended to resist wear, so the design both reduces weight and helps protect bearing interfaces under normal use.

Which RX chassis revisions will accept this shaft?

This part is designated for older RX series parts; check your chassis revision and parts list to confirm compatibility prior to purchase.
