Overview
The Losi Button Head Screws in steel with black oxide finish are essential fastening components for RC enthusiasts and hobbyists across the UK. These precision-engineered screws are specifically designed to meet the demanding requirements of RC car builds, repairs, and maintenance. Whether you're working on a race-ready RC buggy, a bashful monster truck, or any other RC vehicle, having a reliable supply of quality fasteners is crucial to keeping your model running smoothly and securely. These button head screws come in a convenient pack of 10, making them perfect for stock ups or specific build projects where you need consistent, reliable hardware.
Button head screws are the preferred choice for many RC builders because of their distinctive rounded, low-profile head design that sits flush with chassis components and body panels. The M4 x 65mm specification makes these screws ideal for securing larger panels, structural components, and assemblies on medium to large-scale RC vehicles. The black oxide finish provides both aesthetic appeal and functional corrosion resistance, ensuring your RC car maintains its professional appearance while the fasteners remain protected against rust and oxidation even during outdoor bashing sessions in the UK's variable weather conditions.
For competitive racers, weekend bashers, and dedicated RC car UK enthusiasts alike, these Losi fasteners represent authentic OEM components that guarantee fitment and reliability. As an authorised Losi dealer, RC Model Shop stocks genuine replacement parts and upgrade components to keep your RC models performing at their peak.
Key Features
- M4 x 65mm Specification — This size is perfectly matched to Losi RC vehicles and compatible platforms, providing the ideal balance of strength and weight for securing chassis panels, body mounts, and structural assemblies without excess bulk.
- Button Head Design — The distinctive rounded button head profile sits low and flush against components, creating a clean, professional appearance whilst minimising snag points and allowing smooth body panel fitment on your RC car.
- Steel Construction — Premium steel material provides exceptional strength and durability, ensuring these screws can withstand the vibrations, impacts, and stress cycles inherent to RC driving without stripping or breaking during use.
- Black Oxide Finish — The black oxide coating delivers superior corrosion resistance and protection against rust, maintaining the fasteners' integrity and appearance even after exposure to moisture, mud, and outdoor conditions common in RC bashings.
- Pack of 10 — Ten quality fasteners per pack give you enough hardware for a complete build, repair job, or to keep as spares for future maintenance and upgrades to your RC collection.
- Genuine Losi OEM Component — These are authentic factory parts designed and specified by Losi engineers, guaranteeing perfect fitment and compatibility with Losi RC vehicles and ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
Technical Performance
These button head screws represent the kind of quality fastening solutions that serious RC enthusiasts depend upon for reliable, long-term vehicle performance. The M4 diameter provides a robust connection point suitable for securing larger chassis components and body assemblies on medium and large-scale RC vehicles, whilst the 65mm length offers sufficient engagement depth for secure mounting without protruding excessively. The steel construction ensures exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, critical for RC applications where every gram matters and structural integrity cannot be compromised. The black oxide surface treatment is applied through a controlled chemical process that creates a protective magnetite layer on the steel surface, significantly enhancing corrosion resistance compared to bare steel whilst adding minimal weight. This finish is particularly valuable for UK RC enthusiasts who regularly drive in variable weather conditions, where moisture exposure can rapidly degrade unprotected fasteners. The button head profile is precisely engineered to DIN 912 specifications, ensuring consistent quality across the entire pack and perfect compatibility with standard hex key tools and sockets. Whether you're performing routine maintenance on your ready-to-run RC car or engaging in comprehensive build modifications and upgrades, these fasteners deliver the reliability and performance that discerning RC hobbyists have come to expect from Losi's component range.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are button head screws used for on RC cars? — Button head screws are ideal for securing chassis panels, body mounts, suspension components, and structural assemblies on RC vehicles. The low-profile rounded head design allows components to sit flush and flush against your RC car's body whilst providing exceptional holding strength under the vibration and impact stresses of driving.
- Will these screws fit my Losi RC model? — The M4 x 65mm specification is a standard fastener size used across many Losi RC vehicles, particularly for medium and large-scale models. These genuine Losi OEM fasteners are engineered to specification and will provide perfect fitment on compatible Losi platforms, though you should verify the exact requirements for your specific model before ordering.
- Why is the black oxide finish important for RC use? — The black oxide coating provides crucial corrosion resistance, protecting the steel fasteners from rust and degradation when exposed to moisture, mud, and the variable UK weather conditions common during RC bashings and outdoor driving sessions. This protection ensures your screws maintain their integrity and appearance over extended periods of use.
- How many screws do I need for a typical RC build? — A pack of 10 screws is ideal for securing a complete set of chassis and body panels on most RC vehicles, or for having spare fasteners available for maintenance and repairs. For extensive builds or multiple vehicles, you may wish to purchase several packs to ensure you always have adequate stock.
- Are these genuine Losi parts? — Yes, these are authentic OEM Losi fasteners sourced directly from the manufacturer. As an authorised Losi retailer, RC Model Shop provides only genuine components that meet factory specifications and quality standards, ensuring optimal compatibility and performance with your RC models.
- What tools do I need to install these screws? — Button head screws feature a standard hex socket drive (Allen key fitting) that works with conventional hex key tools and sockets. The M4 specification typically uses a 3mm hex key, though you should verify this for your specific application.
