Key Features
- Genuine Traxxas Manufacture — These screws are produced by Traxxas to the same exacting specifications as the original fasteners supplied with new models, ensuring perfect compatibility and reliability with your RC vehicles and guaranteeing consistent quality across every single screw in the pack.
- Cap-Head Design — The cap-head profile provides a larger gripping surface compared to other screw types, allowing your hex wrench to engage securely and reducing the risk of slipping or stripping during installation or removal, which is especially important when working with precision RC components.
- Hex Drive Socket — Each screw features a hexagonal drive socket that accepts standard RC hex wrenches, making these fasteners compatible with tools you almost certainly already own and use regularly for other RC maintenance and assembly tasks.
- 2.5mm Diameter Specification — The 2.5mm diameter is a standard size for many Traxxas RC models, particularly smaller-scale vehicles like the 1/16 Slash 4X4, making these screws widely applicable across your RC collection.
- 14mm Length — The 14mm length is precisely engineered for specific mounting applications on Traxxas vehicles, ensuring proper engagement with threaded holes whilst avoiding over-tightening or protrusion that could interfere with moving components.
- Six-Piece Pack — This convenient pack of six screws gives you multiple replacements for common fastening tasks, ensuring you have spares for regular maintenance or complete assemblies without needing to purchase multiple packs.
- Machine Thread Profile — The machine thread design ensures compatibility with factory-drilled threaded holes on genuine Traxxas parts and correctly prepared compatible components, providing reliable mechanical engagement and resistance to loosening during operation.
Technical Performance
These Traxxas 2.5x14mm cap-head machine screws represent the gold standard in RC fastener engineering, manufactured using precision machining processes that ensure consistent diameter, thread pitch, and head geometry across every screw in the pack. The 2.5mm diameter and 14mm length specifications are specifically matched to common mounting requirements on Traxxas RC vehicles, including popular models like the 1/16 Slash 4X4 platform. The cap-head design provides superior leverage compared to button-head alternatives, making these screws easier to install and remove even when working with older models where fasteners may have accumulated dirt or corrosion. The hexagonal drive socket is manufactured to tolerances that ensure a secure fit with quality hex wrenches, minimising the risk of cam-out and damage to either the screw head or your tools. These screws perform reliably in the demanding conditions that RC cars experience, including vibration, temperature fluctuations, and exposure to dirt and moisture. Whether you're assembling a new vehicle from a parts kit, replacing damaged or lost fasteners, or maintaining an existing model, genuine Traxxas screws deliver the precision fit and durability that serious RC enthusiasts demand. The machine thread profile engages positively with factory-drilled holes whilst resisting vibration-induced loosening better than damaged or worn fasteners.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these Traxxas screws genuine OEM parts? — Yes, these are genuine Traxxas factory-manufactured replacement screws built to identical specifications as the fasteners supplied with new Traxxas RC models, ensuring perfect compatibility and reliability with your vehicles.
- What Traxxas models use these 2.5x14mm cap-head screws? — These screws are specifically listed for the 1/16 Slash 4X4 chassis assembly and may be compatible with other Traxxas models that use similar mounting points, though you should verify compatibility with your specific model's parts diagram before ordering.
- Will these fit other RC car brands? — Whilst the 2.5x14mm cap-head specification is a common size in RC hobby, these Traxxas screws are optimised for Traxxas vehicles and compatible models with matching threaded hole specifications; verify compatibility before using with non-Traxxas brands.
- Why do I need spare RC car screws? — RC screws can become lost during assembly, maintenance, or crashes, and damaged or stripped fasteners must be replaced to maintain proper assembly and prevent component failure; having genuine spares on hand eliminates frustrating delays when you're ready to run your RC car.
- How do I install these screws correctly? — Use a quality RC hex wrench that fits the socket snugly to avoid stripping, insert the screw into the threaded hole, and tighten firmly but not excessively; over-tightening can strip the threads on plastic or soft aluminium components.
- Can I use these screws with a power drill? — Whilst a hex-drive screw can technically be used with a power drill, RC fasteners are best installed by hand with a quality hex wrench to maintain precise control and avoid over-tightening or damaging delicate plastic or composite components.
- Are these screws suitable for beginners? — Yes, these genuine Traxxas replacement screws are straightforward to install for anyone with basic RC assembly experience and a quality hex wrench; they're an essential spare part for any RC enthusiast learning to maintain their models.
