Description & Specifications

ProtoBot Wheels are a set of four wheels designed as direct replacements for ProtoBot or for custom robot projects using compatible N20 motors. Each wheel features a precision-machined aluminium hub that attaches to the motor shaft using an included screw.

The black silicone tyres stretch securely over the hubs to provide additional grip for smooth driving and tight turns. The wheels are lightweight, durable and easy to install or replace.

Installation Guide

  • Slide the aluminium hub onto the N20 motor shaft.
  • Secure the hub using the included M1.6 × 4 mm screw.
  • Stretch the silicone tyre over the hub until it fits securely. If the tyre is slightly misaligned, roll the wheel on a flat surface to help it align naturally.
