Frequently Asked Questions
- What are these washers used for in RC cars? — Washers are essential fastening components that distribute loads from bolts and screws evenly across component surfaces. In RC vehicles, they prevent damage to plastic and metal parts, ensure secure fastening, and create proper spacing between components in various assembly points including suspension, chassis, and body mounting.
- Are these washers compatible with my Axial RC vehicle? — Yes, these are genuine Axial Racing spare parts manufactured to the exact specifications required for Axial RC vehicles. They are compatible with a wide range of Axial RC cars and compatible vehicles using standard 3mm fastening points. Check your vehicle's manual or contact RC Model Shop if you're unsure about compatibility with your specific model.
- Why do I need spare washers for my RC car? — Washers can wear, get damaged, or be lost during maintenance and repairs. Having spare washers available means you can quickly perform maintenance without waiting for parts to arrive. Many RC enthusiasts keep a stock of common spare parts like washers for regular upkeep and emergency repairs during racing or bashing sessions.
- What's the difference between 3x8x0.5mm and other washer sizes? — The three measurements refer to the inner diameter (3mm), outer diameter (8mm), and thickness (0.5mm). These precise dimensions ensure the washers fit correctly with standard M3 fasteners and assembly points on RC vehicles. Using the correct size is important for proper fit and load distribution.
- Can I use these washers on other RC brands? — Whilst these are genuine Axial Racing parts, washers with 3mm inner bore are widely used across many RC vehicle brands and scales. If your RC car uses M3 fasteners, these washers may be compatible. However, always verify compatibility with your vehicle's manual or consult RC Model Shop before use on non-Axial vehicles.
