Overview
The AXIAL Cap Head M2x6mm Black Oxide fasteners are essential replacement and spare parts for anyone maintaining and upgrading their RC models. These precision-engineered cap head screws are specifically designed for Axial RC vehicles, making them an indispensable addition to any RC enthusiast's spare parts collection. Whether you're building a new RC crawler, maintaining your existing setup, or customising your vehicle with aftermarket upgrades, having quality fasteners on hand ensures you can keep your RC car UK hobby running smoothly without unexpected downtime.
Cap head screws are a critical component in RC vehicle assembly and maintenance. These machine thread fasteners provide reliable clamping force and are engineered to withstand the demanding conditions of off-road RC driving. The black oxide finish not only provides a professional appearance but also offers enhanced corrosion resistance, protecting your investment through countless hours of RC action. For anyone serious about their RC car hobby in the UK, maintaining a stock of quality spare fasteners like these is the mark of a dedicated enthusiast.
Each pack contains 10 fasteners, giving you enough to complete multiple repairs, upgrades or full build projects. The M2x6mm specification makes these versatile screws suitable for a wide range of Axial models, from the popular SCX10 series to numerous other scale crawlers and rock crawlers. Whether you're running a brushed or brushless RC setup, these fasteners deliver the precision fit and reliable performance you expect from genuine Axial components.
Key Features
- M2 Thread Size — The M2 metric specification ensures compatibility with Axial-designed mounting points and receiver holes, providing a secure and properly-fitted connection that won't strip or loosen under the vibration and stress of off-road RC driving.
- 6mm Length — This specific length has been engineered by Axial to work with their vehicle platforms, ensuring the screw penetrates to the optimal depth for maximum holding power without bottoming out or breaking through thin panels.
- Cap Head Design — The cap head style provides a larger surface area than standard socket screws, distributing clamping force across a wider area and reducing the risk of pulling through softer materials commonly used in RC body panels and mounting brackets.
- Black Oxide Finish — The black oxide coating provides superior corrosion resistance compared to bare steel, protecting against rust and degradation even when exposed to moisture, mud and harsh weather conditions during outdoor RC play.
- Hex Driver Compatible — These fasteners use a standard hex driver socket, allowing you to use common RC tool sets and multi-bit hex key sets that most RC enthusiasts already own, making installation quick and straightforward.
- Machine Thread Construction — The machine thread design means these are metric precision fasteners engineered to exacting tolerances, ensuring consistent fit and performance across multiple vehicles and components.
- 10-Pack Quantity — With 10 fasteners per pack, you have enough to complete a full component upgrade, repair multiple vehicles, or maintain a well-stocked spare parts drawer so you're never caught without essential fasteners during a build session.
Technical Performance
These AXIAL Cap Head M2x6mm fasteners represent the kind of precision engineering that distinguishes quality RC components from inferior alternatives. The M2 metric specification delivers a perfect balance between strength and weight, critical factors in scale RC vehicles where mass distribution affects handling, acceleration and overall performance. The black oxide finish undergoes a chemical conversion process that bonds to the steel substrate, creating a durable protective layer that resists rust and corrosion far better than raw steel fasteners. This is particularly important for UK RC enthusiasts who may encounter wet conditions, muddy terrain and moisture-laden air during outdoor driving sessions. The cap head design provides structural advantages over socket head alternatives, with a larger bearing surface that distributes load more effectively across mounting surfaces. The hex driver socket accepts standard 1.5mm hex keys commonly found in RC multi-tools, ensuring you can work with equipment you already own. These machine thread fasteners have been integrated into the design of multiple Axial platforms including the SCX10 II, SCX10 III, and numerous builder kits, confirming their compatibility and reliability across Axial's product range.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Axial RC models are these fasteners compatible with? — These M2x6mm cap head screws are compatible with a wide range of Axial vehicles including the SCX10 II Deadbolt, SCX10 III Jeep JT Gladiator, SCX10 III Base Camp 4WD Rock Crawler Builders Kit, SCX10 III Base Camp 4X4 RTR in both Grey and White, SCX10 III Coyote 4X4 in Silver and Blue, SCX10 III 1987 Toyota SR5 4X4, SCX10 III Pro-Line 1982 Chevy K10, SCX10 III Early Ford Bronco 4WD, SCX10 III Jeep CJ-7 4X4 in both Red and Copper, and SCX10 III 4WD Rock Crawler Builders Kit.
- Why should I buy genuine Axial fasteners instead of generic screws? — Genuine Axial fasteners are engineered specifically for Axial RC vehicles, with dimensions and specifications optimised for compatibility with Axial's mounting points and structural design. Generic fasteners may have slightly different thread pitches, lengths or head geometry that could result in loose connections, stripped holes or improper component seating, potentially damaging your RC vehicle.
- Are these fasteners suitable for beginners? — Yes, these fasteners are essential for anyone new to the RC hobby. Whether you're assembling a kit, performing maintenance or replacing damaged parts, having quality spare fasteners ensures you can complete repairs and projects successfully without the frustration of hunting for compatible alternatives.
- What tool do I need to install these screws? — You'll need a 1.5mm hex key (Allen key) to install these cap head fasteners. Most RC enthusiasts own multi-bit hex tool sets that include this size, making installation straightforward and quick.
- How many vehicles can one pack of 10 fasteners service? — Depending on what components you're replacing or installing, one pack typically contains enough fasteners for a complete component upgrade on a single vehicle, or can be divided across multiple vehicles for repairs and maintenance. Having multiple packs in your spare parts collection ensures you're always prepared for unexpected repairs.
- Will these fasteners rust if my RC gets wet? — The black oxide finish provides significant rust resistance compared to bare steel fasteners, though like any steel component, they should be rinsed and dried after exposure to saltwater or prolonged moisture. The black oxide coating is designed to withstand normal off-road conditions including mud, water splash and damp environments typical of UK RC driving.
