16.9 mm multi-spoke hubcaps in white, compatible with Sloting Plus wheels for 1/32 scale. The pack includes 4 units, perfect for renewing the aesthetics of your wheels or replacing the originals with a clean and consistent finish.
Details that make a difference: 16.9 mm Multiradio hub caps in white for your 1/32 builds
Within the 1/32 spare parts section, hub caps may seem like a minor element, but any enthusiast who has prepared a car for competition knows that the visual finish and wheel balance start here. These 16.9 mm white Multiradio hub caps, manufactured by Tectime and compatible with Sloting Plus wheels, precisely meet that need.
Function and performance
The hub cap serves a dual purpose: it protects the outer face of the wheel and provides the visual finish that completes the wheel-tyre assembly. In 1/32 scale, where details are visible just a few centimetres away, a well-fitted hub cap makes the difference between an amateur-looking car and one that appears freshly out of the preparation box.
The Multiradio design of these hub caps is one of the most used in the slot racing scene due to its aesthetic versatility: it visually fits with touring, GT, and prototype references, and the white colour makes them particularly suitable for light colour combinations or liveries with white or neutral-toned wheels.
Compatibility
These hub caps are designed to work with wheels of axle diameter 16.9 mm from the Sloting Plus range. Before placing your order, check that your current wheels correspond to that measurement, as an incorrectly sized hub cap will not fit properly and may cause imbalances in the wheel.
Assembly and preparation
The assembly does not require special tools: the hub cap fits snugly onto the wheel. Nevertheless, it is advisable to check that the fit is uniform across all four units to avoid any weight variation that could affect track performance. If you are preparing the car for competition, a small check with a precision scale after assembly is always beneficial.
Pack contents
- 4 units of 16.9 mm white Multiradio hub caps.
- Compatible with Sloting Plus wheels of the specified size.
Common mistakes
- Confusing the size: ensure that your wheels are 16.9 mm before ordering. Sloting Plus has hub caps in various sizes; choosing the wrong one means the hub cap will not fit or will be loose.
- Forcing the fit: if the hub cap does not enter smoothly, check for any tyre debris or dirt on the edge of the wheel before applying pressure.
- Ignoring balancing: in competition cars, even small weight differences between wheels affect traction. Fit all four hub caps and check the final balance.
Frequently asked questions
What wheels are these hub caps compatible with?
They are designed for Sloting Plus wheels with an outer diameter of 16.9 mm. If you have wheels from another brand or a different size, consult the specifications before ordering to ensure the fit is correct.
How many units does the pack include?
The pack contains 4 units, sufficient to equip all four wheels of a 1/32 scale car.
Can they be painted or modified?
Being white, they accept modelling paints (Vallejo, Tamiya…) well if you want to customise them to fit a specific livery. Prepare the surface with a coat of primer for better adhesion.
Do they affect track performance?
A well-fitted hub cap should not negatively affect performance. If the fit is not uniform across all four wheels or there are weight differences, there may be a slight variation in traction. For competition, always check the balance after assembly.
Are they suitable for club track use or just for decoration?
They are functional spare parts, suitable for both track use and improving the visual presentation of the car. Their construction is aimed at preparation slot racing, not just for display aesthetics.
