Overview
The Axial M3 x 14mm Button Head Screw (10) pack is an essential replacement hardware component for RC enthusiasts who maintain and customise their scale crawlers and trail buggies. Whether you're a dedicated RC car UK builder working on a competition-grade rock crawler or a weekend hobbyist maintaining your ready to run RC model, having a reliable supply of quality fasteners is crucial to keeping your machine running smoothly. These black oxide machine thread screws are specifically engineered to meet Axial's demanding standards and are compatible with a wide range of Axial 1/10 scale models, making them an indispensable addition to any RC garage.
Button head screws are prized in the RC hobby for their distinctive low-profile design that sits neatly flush with surrounding components, minimising protrusion and reducing the risk of snagging on obstacles during intense off-road driving. The M3 x 14mm specification provides the perfect balance of holding power and lightweight construction, making these screws ideal for securing body panels, internal assemblies, and component brackets on your Axial trail buggy or rock crawler. With 10 screws per pack, you'll have enough for multiple repairs or modification projects, or to keep as essential spares in your maintenance kit.
Axial's commitment to quality engineering extends to every component, including these precision-manufactured fasteners. The black oxide finish provides excellent corrosion resistance, protecting your hardware from the elements during outdoor bashing sessions and ensuring longevity even when exposed to water, mud, and rough terrain. For RC enthusiasts across the UK who demand reliability from every part of their machine, these button head screws represent genuine Axial engineering at an affordable price point.
Key Features
- M3 x 14mm Specification — This metric sizing is specifically designed for Axial 1/10 scale models, ensuring perfect compatibility with mounting points across a wide range of trail buggies, rock crawlers, and unlimited buggy platforms including the Capra, RBX10 Ryft, and SCX10 III series.
- Button Head Design — The low-profile button head sits flush with component surfaces, reducing protrusion that could catch on rocks, brush, or obstacles during challenging off-road driving, whilst maintaining excellent aesthetic appeal on visible assemblies.
- Black Oxide Finish — This durable coating provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard steel fasteners, protecting your hardware from moisture, salt spray, and mud that RC drivers inevitably encounter during outdoor trail running sessions.
- Machine Thread Construction — These fasteners feature precision-cut machine threads that provide consistent grip and secure retention without stripping, essential for high-vibration environments like RC vehicles navigating rocky terrain.
- Hex Driver Type — The hex socket design accepts standard metric hex keys (2.5mm), allowing quick installation and removal with tools you likely already have in your RC toolkit.
- Pack of 10 Screws — Ten fasteners per pack provide sufficient quantity for multiple repairs, modifications, or to maintain a well-stocked spare parts inventory for unplanned breakdowns during competition or recreational driving.
Technical Performance
These M3 x 14mm button head screws represent precision engineering designed specifically for the exacting demands of scale RC crawling and trail buggy racing. The metric M3 thread diameter is calculated to provide optimal holding force without excessive stress concentration on plastic mounting bosses or delicate bracket assemblies common in modern Axial designs. The 14mm length is engineered to penetrate through typical component thicknesses found in 1/10 scale platforms whilst leaving sufficient thread engagement for secure locking. The machine thread specification — as opposed to self-tapping or thread-forming alternatives — ensures consistent grip quality across multiple installation and removal cycles, critical for vehicles that require frequent maintenance and component swaps during intensive competition seasons or regular hobby use. The black oxide surface treatment provides measurable protection against corrosion without adding significant thickness to the fastener profile, maintaining the precision fit required in tight mounting applications. Built to Axial's demanding OEM standards, these screws have proven themselves across thousands of SCX10 III rock crawlers, Capra trail buggies, and RBX10 Ryft rock bouncers operating in challenging UK terrain.

- Why would I need replacement button head screws for my RC crawler? — During regular operation on challenging terrain, fasteners can vibrate loose, become damaged, or require replacement during maintenance and component upgrades. Having quality replacement screws ensures you can quickly repair your ready to run RC crawler without delays, and maintain a well-stocked spares kit for emergency field repairs during competition events.
- What is the advantage of button head screws over other screw types? — Button head screws feature a distinctive low-profile design that sits flush with component surfaces, providing cleaner aesthetics, reducing snag points on terrain, and allowing components to sit closer together without interference, making them ideal for space-constrained applications in compact 1/10 scale designs.
- Is the black oxide finish important for outdoor RC use? — Yes, the black oxide coating provides excellent corrosion resistance against moisture, mud, and environmental exposure that RC vehicles encounter during trail bashing and outdoor driving sessions, significantly extending fastener lifespan compared to untreated steel alternatives.
- How many replacement fasteners should I keep in stock? — With 10 screws per pack, you have sufficient quantity for several repairs or component modifications, though many experienced RC enthusiasts keep multiple packs on hand to ensure they never run short during building season or intensive competition periods.
- What driver type do these screws use? — These button head screws feature a hex socket design that accepts a 2.5mm hex key (Allen key), a standard tool size found in most RC hobby toolkits and easily available from any hobby retailer.
