Whether you're a serious competitor, a weekend basher, or simply discovering the world of RC for the first time, having quality replacement screws on hand is vital for keeping your RC car UK-ready and performing at its best. These genuine Traxxas fasteners are precision-engineered to exact specifications, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of Traxxas vehicles and providing the reliability you need when maintaining your investment.
As an RC hobbyist, you'll appreciate the importance of using manufacturer-approved components in your builds and repairs. These M3 cap-head machine screws are specifically designed for use on numerous Traxxas models, from the legendary X-Maxx Belted 4WD Brushless RTR 8S Monster Truck to the pro-scale Unlimited Desert Racer (UDR). Having a spare pack of quality fasteners ensures you're always prepared for maintenance, repairs, or component upgrades without needing to source replacements from multiple suppliers.
Quality fasteners are the foundation of reliable RC performance. These screws feature a durable cap-head design with hex driver socket, making them easy to install and remove with standard RC tools. For anyone serious about their RC cars and trucks, maintaining a stock of genuine Traxxas replacement parts is the hallmark of a well-organised workshop and a commitment to long-term vehicle reliability.
Key Features
- M3 Size Specification — These screws are precisely sized at M3, ensuring they fit the mounting points and fastening locations on compatible Traxxas models without forcing or cross-threading, which can damage threads and compromise structural integrity.
- 10mm Length — The 10mm length is engineered to provide adequate thread engagement whilst remaining short enough to avoid interference with other components, making these screws ideal for securing brackets, servo mounts, and electronic components on modern Traxxas vehicles.
- Cap-Head Design — The cap-head profile provides a larger contact surface than standard socket head screws, distributing load more effectively and reducing the risk of stripping mounting points during installation or removal, which is crucial for repeated maintenance cycles.
- Hex Driver Socket — Each screw features a hex socket that accepts standard hex Allen keys and RC maintenance tools, allowing for quick and precise installation without slipping or damaging the screw head, a common problem with lower-quality fasteners.
- Pack of 6 Pieces — This convenient six-pack quantity provides ample spares for multiple repairs, upgrades, or building projects, ensuring you always have replacements available without excessive waste or storage concerns.
- No Washer Included — These screws are supplied without washers, keeping the package lightweight and cost-effective whilst remaining compatible with all mounting applications where washers are not required by design specifications.
- Genuine Traxxas Component — Being an official Traxxas part number TRX2587, these screws meet the manufacturer's quality standards and are guaranteed compatible with all Traxxas vehicles that specify this fastener in their assembly manuals and parts lists.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Screws TRX2587 represent the engineering precision that Traxxas applies to every component of their RC vehicles. These M3 cap-head machine screws are manufactured to exact tolerances, ensuring smooth installation into threaded mounting points and providing reliable holding force under the vibration, impacts, and environmental stresses that RC vehicles endure during operation. The hex socket design is engineered with adequate depth and fit tolerance to prevent tool slipping, which is essential when working with small fasteners on intricate mechanical assemblies. The 10mm length has been specifically calculated to provide sufficient thread engagement for secure fastening whilst maintaining clearance from surrounding components, a critical consideration in the densely-packed assemblies found in modern brushless RC trucks and monster trucks. Whether you're maintaining a high-performance 4WD truck, a powerful 8S brushless system, or any other Traxxas model, these fasteners deliver the reliability and precision that serious RC enthusiasts demand. The cap-head profile distributes stress more evenly than pointed-nose designs, reducing the likelihood of surface damage to mounting brackets and extending the service life of your vehicle's structural components. These are not commodity fasteners; they are precision engineering components that maintain the performance standards Traxxas vehicles are known for.
