Key Features

• M2.5 Size with 12mm Length — These screws are precisely sized to fit critical components across the Traxxas range, ensuring perfect compatibility with your RC vehicle and delivering the exact clamping force needed without over-tightening.
• Cap-Head Machine Thread Design — The cap-head profile provides a large contact surface that distributes clamping force evenly, reducing the risk of damaging plastic or soft metal components whilst offering superior holding power compared to smaller fastener heads.
• Hex Socket Driver — The hex socket design eliminates the frustration of stripped slots and provides much better torque transfer, making these screws ideal for high-vibration applications where traditional screwdrivers would slip.
• Black Anodised Finish — The durable black coating protects against corrosion and rust, maintaining the aesthetic integrity of your RC model whilst ensuring longevity even in damp British weather conditions.
• Pack of Six Pieces — You receive six screws in each pack, giving you enough fasteners for routine maintenance or multiple repair jobs without needing to order repeatedly.
• Genuine Traxxas Component — These are authentic Traxxas parts manufactured to strict quality standards, ensuring fitment and performance that matches the engineering of your RC vehicle.

Technical Performance

These M2.5x12mm cap-head machine screws represent the kind of precision engineering that separates genuine RC parts from inferior alternatives. The machine thread specification ensures consistent engagement without the degradation that can occur with self-tapping fasteners, whilst the 12mm length positions them perfectly for securing key chassis and suspension components. The hex socket design accepts standard 2mm hex keys, tools that every RC enthusiast should have in their toolkit. The black anodised finish provides excellent corrosion resistance, particularly important for RC models used in UK conditions where moisture and salt-laden air can attack unprotected fasteners. The cap-head profile means these screws sit flush when properly tightened, contributing to both the finished appearance of your model and reducing snag points during assembly and disassembly. Whether you're maintaining a Traxxas Slash HD XL-5 short course truck or working on a TRX-4 crawler, these fasteners deliver the reliability and durability that Traxxas is known for.
