VEX Robotics is educational robotics for everyone. VEX solutions span all levels of both formal and informal education with accessible, scalable, and affordable solutions. Beyond science and engineering principles, VEX encourages creativity, teamwork, leadership, and problem solving among groups. It allows educators of all types to engage and inspire the STEM problem solvers of tomorrow!
Wheels Defense may not always win championships, but being able to move does. Put some power on the floor with our large variety of wheel options available for builders. Omni-Directional or Mecanum Wheels are great for quick, lateral movements. If you need more grip, Traction Wheels offer great pushing ability and are designed for optimal grip on soft surfaces like the foam tiles used in the VEX Robotics Competition.
Use these extension cables to extend the length of your motor, sensors, and other electronics wires. The 2-Wire Extension Cable Bundle includes: (2) 6" cables (2) 12" cables (1) 24" cable (1) 36" cable
VEX angle without slots, typically used for structural framing. Can be cut on 0.500" increments Made from cold rolled steel, 0.046" thick, zinc plated All items are (4) to a package
A standoff is used in mechanics and electronics to separate two parts from one another while creating a rigid connection. All VEX Standoffs have 8-32 threads.
High Strength Shaft Hardware functions similarly to standard shaft hardware, just on a larger scale. Use the High Strength Shaft Bearing to allow shafts to turn smoothly, the High Strength Shaft Spacer Kit to position objects on a shaft while reducing friction, and the High Strength Clamping Collar to hold everything in place. VEX EDR comprehensive solution High Strength Shafts are actually designed about 1 mm shorter than their respective comprehensive solution 8-32 Standoffs. This means that if you use standoffs to hold together two pieces of metal, the High Strength Shaft can rest on High Strength Shaft Bearings attached to those two pieces without any cutting required.
Spacers designed for use on VEX EDR High Strength Shafts. Spacers are often used to properly position objects on a shaft or to reduce friction between rotating objects. Eliminate slop on shafts Add space between metal parts Includes four sizes 30x 1.6mm (1/16in.) 20x 3.175mm (1/8in.) 10x 6.35mm (1/4in.) 10x 12.7mm (1/2in.)
These reinforced chains and sprockets can transmit higher loads over long distances. Use this kit to withstand higher stresses and lift heavier loads or for any application where regular chain just won't cut it. High strength design - up to 22kg 12 sprockets in 5 Sizes 1.3m (54in.) of chain links
Intake rollers are specifically designed for ball intake systems. The flexible rubber fingers grip the ball. The fingers also deflect, allowing for ball size variation. Rubber fingers. Hard plastic center with square hole. Rubber fingers (ABS Plastic center with square hole)
Tank tread can be used to easily drive over objects or scoop up objects. Use this kit to create intake mechanisms, tank tread drivetrains and more! (200) Tread / Attachment Link (4) 24 Tooth Sprocket (40) Traction Link (20) Short Intake Flap (20) Medium Intake Flap (20) Long Intake Flap
These Omni-Directional wheels roll forward like normal wheels but slide sideways with almost no friction (no skidding during turns). Use these wheels to make your robot turn smoothly or build a holonomic drive train. Diameter approx. 62mm Travel: 200mm (distance covered in 1 revolution) Omni-Directional Wheels roll sideways with very little friction Minimize skidding during turns Made from ABS plastic Rollers are soft rubber-coated ABS
The Bumper Switch gives your robot the sense of touch Low force switch can detect light touch Use to detect walls or limit an arms motion Supports event programming to simplify software
The Colour Sensor detects the colour of objects. Allows your robot to identify the colour of specific objects and improve autonomous behaviour. Measures colours Measures colour hue Measures independent Red, Green, and Blue in 256 levels each Measure ambient light level Supports event programming to simplify software

VEX Synthetic Rubber Bands have dozens of uses on a robot. Their spring-like properties make them perfect for latches, triggers, and return mechanisms. Size:3" x 1/8" (76mm x 3mm)
VEX Synthetic Rubber Bands have dozens of uses on a robot. Their spring-like properties make them perfect for latches, triggers, and return mechanisms. 3.5" x 1/4"(89mm x 6mm) Thickness: 1/32"(0.8 mm)
Motor Controller 29 276-2193 The VEX Motor Controller 29 uses a standard PWM signal (like that originating from the 3-wire ports on VEX Microcontrollers) to drive a VEX 2-Wire Motor. Note:We recommend using no more more than one (1) 3-Wire extension cable in between the Motor Controller 29 and a VEX Microcontroller. For longer extensions, use 2-Wire extension cables in between the Motor Controller 29 and a VEX 2-Wire motor. Compatible with 3-wire motor ports on all VEX Microcontrollers Inputs Black Wire - Ground Orange Wire - Power White Wire - PWM Signal: 1ms - 2ms will give full reverse to full forward, 1.5ms is neutral Max Battery Voltage:Max battery voltage: 8.5V (with fully charged 7.2V battery) Max Current:Max current: 4 A
