Plastic 1/2" VersaHex Adapters v2 (1/4" Square Bore, 1/8" Long) (48-pack)
(2) VersaHex Adapters are required per Flex Wheel.
3” And 4” Flex Wheel Assembly
The two larger sizes of Flex Wheels, 3” and 4”, require four accessory parts in order to be compatible with a V5 ¼” High Strength Square Shaft.
An additional two inserts can be used to make these wheels compatible with a ⅛” Square Shaft.
See the diagrams below to help understand which parts are necessary to use the 3” and 4” Flex Wheels on your robot.
Optionally, VersaHubs can be retained to Flex Wheels using standard V5 hardware (note that this does not replace the use of the adapters described in this article, but can provide some additional stability if needed). Long screws can be used as through-bolts with nuts on the other side, or ¼” standoffs can be pressed into the bolt circles inside of the 3” and 4” Flex wheels to allow shorter screws to capture the Plastic VersaHubs on both sides of the wheel.
