Key Features
- Super-strong steel material — Manufactured from high-grade steel, these cap head screws deliver long-lasting durability and consistent fitting, ensuring they won't strip or fail under the stresses of RC vehicle operation and repeated assembly cycles.
- Precision manufactured threads — The threads are engineered to exacting tolerances, providing fast and easy maintenance, so you can quickly remove and reinstall fasteners without cross-threading or damaging the surrounding components.
- Bagged in multiples of 10 — Rather than buying single fasteners, you receive 10 cap head screws per pack, so you always have spares on hand for future repairs and maintenance without needing to reorder frequently.
- M2.5x8mm specification — These fasteners are sized at M2.5 diameter with an 8mm length, making them suitable for the specific mounting points on your ARRMA RC vehicle where this size is called for in the design.
- Hex driver compatibility — The cap head design includes a hexagonal socket, allowing you to use standard hex drivers (Allen keys) for installation and removal, providing excellent grip and reducing the risk of slipping or stripping the fastener head.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Cap Head Screw 2.5x8mm is engineered with precision to meet the demanding requirements of RC vehicle maintenance and assembly. Constructed from super-strong steel, these fasteners offer exceptional durability and reliability under the repeated stress cycles common in RC car operation. The M2.5 diameter with 8mm length specification makes these screws ideal for securing smaller components within the ARRMA vehicle chassis and suspension systems. The machine thread design ensures smooth, consistent engagement with threaded holes, eliminating binding and cross-threading issues that can damage your RC model. With a black finish providing corrosion resistance, these fasteners maintain their appearance and functionality even after extended use. The hexagonal socket head design allows efficient installation and removal using standard hex drivers, whilst the cap head design distributes clamping force across a wider area than standard fasteners, protecting softer materials from deformation. Each screw in this 10-pack meets ARRMA's OEM quality standards, ensuring compatibility with your specific RC vehicle model.
