Key Features
- Precision Hex Socket Design — The hex socket head provides an exact fit that helps prevent the rounding-out and stripping that commonly occurs with inferior fasteners, ensuring secure assembly and long service life on your RC car UK builds.
- Genuine Axial Factory Hardware — These screws are manufactured to Axial's exacting standards and specifications, guaranteeing compatibility and durability across their entire range of ready to run RC vehicles and scale model kits.
- M3x20mm Tapping Thread Specification — The M3 diameter with 20mm length and machine thread type make these screws ideal for chassis assembly, body work, and component mounting on 1/10 and 1/8 scale Axial models.
- Black Coated Steel Construction — The durable black powder-coated steel finish resists corrosion and oxidation, ensuring these fasteners maintain their appearance and functionality through extended use in outdoor RC environments across the UK.
- Button Head Profile — The low-profile button head design minimises interference with surrounding components and body panels, providing a clean aesthetic finish whilst maintaining full mechanical strength.

Technical Performance
These M3x20mm hex socket tapping button head screws represent the kind of engineering precision that distinguishes professional-grade RC hardware from budget alternatives. The machine thread specification means these fasteners are specifically designed to cut their own thread into pre-drilled holes, making installation straightforward and reliable on Axial chassis platforms and body mounts. The 20mm length provides adequate engagement depth for secure fastening across various Axial mounting points, from chassis rails to suspension brackets and body panels. The black coated steel material delivers exceptional strength-to-weight ratio whilst the powder coating provides genuine corrosion resistance—a critical consideration for RC vehicles operated in damp UK conditions. The precision-machined hex socket ensures perfect driver fit every time, dramatically reducing the risk of fastener damage that can occur with worn or damaged fasteners. Whether you're working on a 1/10 scale RR10 Bomber rock racer, an SMT10 Monster Truck, a Wraith rock crawler, a Yeti XL kit, or any other compatible Axial model, these genuine factory fasteners will deliver years of reliable service. The tapping button head design balances low-profile aesthetics with full mechanical performance, making these screws suitable for visible chassis work as well as concealed internal assemblies.
