The oversized head design offers increased surface area for secure clamping, whilst the M3x10mm dimensions make them compatible with numerous Axial transmission and chassis components. Stock a set of these reliable socket screws in your RC toolbox and never be caught without the right fasteners when building or maintaining your scale crawler or off-road RC car.
Key Features
- M3x10mm Hex Socket Design — These socket head cap screws utilise the precision M3 metric thread specification with a 10mm length, providing compatibility with Axial transmission and drivetrain assemblies that demand exact dimensional accuracy for proper fitment and performance.
- Oversized Flat Head Profile — The oversized head provides an expanded clamping surface compared to standard fasteners, distributing load more effectively across components and reducing the risk of the screw pulling through softer materials commonly used in RC transmission housings.
- Set of 10 Pieces — This pack contains ten screws, giving you sufficient quantity for a complete transmission rebuild or repair project, with spares remaining in your RC parts box for future maintenance needs.
- Genuine Axial OEM Specification — As original equipment manufacturer fasteners, these screws meet Axial's engineering standards and are the correct choice for SCX10 transmission systems and compatible Axial models, ensuring perfect fitment and reliability.
- Quality Metal Construction — Manufactured from durable metal stock suitable for the demands of RC hobbyist use, these fasteners resist stripping and maintain secure clamping force through repeated assembly and disassembly cycles.
Technical Performance
The AXIAL Hex Socket Oversize Head 3x10mm fasteners represent precision engineering tailored specifically for RC transmission and drivetrain applications. With an M3 metric thread diameter and 10mm overall length, these screws are designed to interface seamlessly with Axial's transmission architecture, including systems like the SCX10 two-speed gear set transmission. The oversized flat head profile delivers superior load distribution compared to standard socket screws, critical when securing delicate plastic and metal transmission components under the stress and vibration of off-road RC driving. Each screw in this ten-piece set is manufactured to consistent tolerances that ensure reliable fitment, thread engagement and long-term holding power. The socket head design allows for precise torque application using standard metric hex wrenches or Allen keys, preventing damage to the fastener drive and enabling proper assembly technique. Whether you're building from a kit, performing routine maintenance on your RC crawler or executing a complete transmission overhaul on your 1/10 scale RC car, these oversized socket head screws deliver the reliability and fitment accuracy that distinguishes genuine Axial OEM parts from inferior aftermarket alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What vehicles and models are these socket screws compatible with? — The AXIAL Z-AXA0109 fasteners are specified components in Axial transmission systems, most notably the SCX10 two-speed gear set transmission. They are included in the comprehensive transmission assembly for Axial 1/10 scale models including the SCX10 II Deadbolt 4WD and compatible Axial crawlers and off-road vehicles.
- Why choose oversized flat head socket screws instead of standard fasteners? — The oversized head design provides significantly greater clamping surface area, distributing pressure across a wider footprint and reducing the possibility of the screw head sinking into plastic transmission housings. This is especially important in precision RC transmissions where component integrity directly affects vehicle performance and longevity.
- Are these screws difficult to install correctly? — No, these socket head cap screws are straightforward to install using a standard metric hex wrench or Allen key. The socket design ensures a secure, non-slip fit that prevents cam-out and damage to the screw head during assembly. Simply apply appropriate torque and the screw will seat cleanly into compatible Axial components.
- How many screws do I need for a complete transmission rebuild? — This pack of ten screws typically provides sufficient quantity for a complete SCX10 transmission assembly with additional spares. If you're rebuilding multiple transmissions or want backup fasteners for future projects, consider ordering multiple packs to maintain an adequate stock of genuine Axial fasteners.
- Can I use these with RC models other than Axial? — Whilst the M3x10mm dimensions are standard metric specifications, these fasteners are engineered to Axial's specific transmission architecture. Using them with non-Axial transmissions may result in improper fitment or performance issues. Always consult your vehicle's manual or supplier for approved fastener specifications.
