Overview
The ARRMA Flanged Lock Nut 5x8mm (4) Z-AR708007 is an essential replacement and upgrade component for RC enthusiasts across the UK. Whether you're maintaining your existing RC car, buggy, or truck, or building a custom setup, these precision-engineered lock nuts are a critical fastening solution that ensures your RC vehicle stays securely assembled during high-speed runs and intense bashing sessions. ARRMA is recognised as one of the leading manufacturers in the RC hobby, and their spare parts are engineered to the same exacting standards as their complete ready to run RC models.
These flanged lock nuts are specifically designed for builders and RC car UK hobbyists who demand reliability and durability from their components. The serrated and locking design means once you've tightened these nuts, they stay put — there's no vibration loosening or rattling during aggressive driving. RC enthusiasts from all skill levels, whether you're a beginner assembling your first ready to run RC vehicle or an experienced racer fine-tuning a competition machine, will appreciate the peace of mind that comes with ARRMA's quality fastening solutions.
This pack contains four nuts, making it perfect for multiple assembly points or as spares for ongoing maintenance. Black in colour and measuring M5 with an 8mm flange, these nuts offer a professional finish whilst providing superior holding power compared to standard fasteners.
Key Features
- Serrated and Locking Design — The serrated locking flanged construction prevents vibration loosening, which is critical when your RC model is being driven at speed or subjected to the rigorous demands of off-road bashing and racing. This means you can focus on driving rather than worrying about components coming undone.
- Precise M5 Sizing — The M5 thread size with 8mm flange diameter is engineered to match ARRMA's specifications perfectly, ensuring compatibility with the mounting points on ARRMA RC vehicles and components where these nuts are required.
- Pack of Four — This set includes four individual nuts, giving you multiple fastening solutions in a single purchase, ideal for vehicle assembly or keeping spares on hand for maintenance and repairs.
- Black Finish — The black colour provides a professional appearance and matches the aesthetic of most modern RC vehicles, integrating seamlessly with your build.
- ARRMA Quality Assurance — As an official ARRMA component, these nuts meet the manufacturer's rigorous standards for precision, durability and reliability.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Flanged Lock Nut 5x8mm represents precision engineering in fastening technology. The combination of a serrated design with a locking flange creates multiple contact points that resist loosening under the vibrations and impacts typical of RC driving. The M5 thread specification provides sufficient holding power for suspension components, chassis brackets, and other critical assembly points without being oversized or causing assembly difficulties. The 8mm flange diameter spreads the load across a wider surface area, reducing stress concentration and preventing damage to softer materials often used in RC vehicle construction. Built to ARRMA's exacting standards, these nuts deliver the reliability that UK RC enthusiasts expect from an authorised ARRMA spare part. Whether you're rebuilding a worn vehicle, upgrading your setup, or simply maintaining your RC collection, these fasteners provide the security and longevity needed for countless hours of driving enjoyment.
