• Foam wheels are the preferred choice for combat robots because they absorb impacts and save your drive motors from stripping teeth.
• Use Twist Hubs to mount our FingerTech Foam Wheels, or if you already have Lite Flites (or their thinner counterpart Lectra Lites) they can be used with Twist Hubs too!
• With Twist Hubs, you can easily and securely mount these foam tires to your robot.

• Available with 3mm and 4mm shaft bore, but can be drilled out as big as 6.35mm (0.25in).
