BBS Style Silver Finish for Your Slot Wheels
The Pro Axle Insert Silver (SIPA03s) is a plastic hub insert in BBS style with a silver finish, designed for those who pay attention to every visual detail of their slot car. A simple yet effective accessory that transforms the appearance of the wheels and adds that touch of realism that the most demanding enthusiasts appreciate.
Function and Performance
Its function is purely aesthetic: it covers the centre of the wheel to mimic the look of BBS-style hubcaps commonly found in real motorsport. The silver finish gives it a classic and sporty look that perfectly matches GT, touring, or prototype racing bodies.
Compatibility
This insert is designed to be used exclusively with the following wheels from the same line:
- PA04
- PA17
- PA24
Before placing your order, ensure that the wheel you are using on your car corresponds to one of these models to guarantee a proper fit.
Installation and Preparation
The installation is straightforward: the insert fits into the centre of the compatible wheel. No special tools or adhesives are required. If you are looking for a more permanent finish, a small amount of contact adhesive can help secure it definitively.
Ideal for…
This hub insert is particularly interesting if you are preparing cars for display, dioramas with slot cars, or simply want your club car to have a more refined finish on the track. It is also useful when replacing wheels and wanting to maintain visual consistency with the rest of the set.
