2.2 bead lock wheel (traxxas)

thingiverse

This is a 3 piece bead lock wheel I designed for one of my Traxxas trucks. I really have a hard time gluing tires to wheels so I thought I would give this a try. That said, I have built the wheel and make sure it all fit, but I have not tried it on the truck yet. The hold may not be strong enough. to adjust clamping pressure, the center ring can be scaled up or down in the Z axis to fit tires of different bead thickness. I also included a step file for easy adjustment and tweaking. I used 5/8" long 4-40 hardware and nuts. 8 of each per wheel. Print Settings Printer Brand: Ultimaker Printer: Ultimaker 2 Rafts: No Supports: Yes Resolution: .1 Infill: 50% Notes: I always use ABS. This was printed with the stock settings for ABS in Cura. I actually forgot to use supports in the one pictured but supports should really be used for the lip. 90C bed, 255C nozzle, aqua net hairspray on glass.
