Here is the latest from the gang at RPM and this time they are showing some love for Traxxas. Introducing the RPM Rear Bumper Mount for the Traxxas XRT.
The RPM Rear Bumper Mount for the Traxxas XRT adds durability by replacing a commonly broken stock part. How did RPM make it stronger? RPM started by increasing the height of the mount significantly. RPM bumped it all the way up to 3/4″ (19mm). RPM then increased the thickness to 0.2” (5.08mm). RPM’s final strength improvement comes in the form of a triple loop design. Each side has three curves. Two small and one large. The large curve absorbs smaller impacts while the smaller curves compress once the larger curve can’t compress any further. This gives three zones of compression per side for the utmost impact resistance.
Interestingly, RPM’s unique blend of engineering grade nylons have a characteristic known as memory. Once impact energy has been absorbed, its memory returns RPM’s Rear Bumper Mount back to its original shape. The transition back to shape happens almost instantaneously once the impact force is eliminated. What does that mean? It means you regain impact resistance rapidly after the first hit. That translates into improved protection of your truck in severe crashes where multiple impacts occur in succession (cartwheels).
Made in the USA from RPM’s proprietary blend of incredibly strong nylons.
Tech Notes: The RPM Rear Bumper Mount for the Traxxas XRT replaces stock Traxxas #7834.
