Key Features
- M2x12mm Specification — These fasteners are precisely sized at M2 diameter with 12mm length, engineered to fit Axial RC models perfectly without modification or adjustment, ensuring seamless integration into your build.
- Black Oxide Finish — The black oxide coating provides excellent corrosion resistance and a professional appearance, protecting the fasteners from rust and degradation even when exposed to moisture and mud during outdoor RC racing and bashing.
- Cap Head Design — The cap head profile offers superior strength and holding power compared to standard fasteners, with a larger contact area that distributes pressure evenly and reduces the risk of stripping or damage during assembly and disassembly.
- Pack of 10 — This generous pack includes 10 individual fasteners, providing plenty of spares for repairs, replacements, and upgrades across multiple RC vehicles or for building a comprehensive spares kit.
- Genuine Axial Racing Component — These are authentic OEM Axial Racing parts specified under part number Z-AXA016, guaranteeing compatibility with original Axial designs and maintaining the integrity of your RC vehicle's engineering.
Technical Performance
The AXIAL Cap Head M2x12mm Black Oxide fasteners represent precision engineering at the component level, essential for maintaining the structural integrity of modern RC vehicles. As genuine Axial Racing parts, these fasteners are manufactured to ISO standards with tight tolerances that ensure consistent fit and reliable performance across all applications. The M2 diameter threads are precisely cut to engage cleanly without cross-threading, whilst the 12mm length is optimised for Axial's suspension, chassis, and body mounting points. The black oxide surface treatment is applied through a controlled chemical process that creates a microscopic layer of protection, significantly extending the lifespan of the fasteners compared to untreated steel, particularly important for UK RC enthusiasts who often operate in wet and muddy conditions. The cap head design is not merely cosmetic—the hexagonal socket accepts standard hex keys or ball-end tools used across the RC hobby, distributing tightening forces across a wider bearing surface that reduces the risk of cam-out and fastener failure. Each screw in this pack of 10 is manufactured to identical specifications, ensuring consistency whether you're completing a full rebuild or making targeted repairs to a single damaged fastener.
