Key Features
- M3 Thread Size — The M3 specification ensures precise compatibility with Losi RC vehicles and other models designed for this industry-standard metric thread size, providing secure fastening without the risk of thread mismatch or loose connections.
- 6mm Screw Length — The 6mm length is engineered for specific Losi applications where precise depth is critical; too long and fasteners can interfere with internal mechanisms, too short and they won't secure properly, making this exact dimension essential for correct assembly.
- Hex Socket Head Design — The socket head configuration accepts standard hex drivers, allowing you to apply torque efficiently without the fastener head stripping or rounding out, which is especially important during high-speed assembly and maintenance work.
- Black Anodised Finish — The black colour coating provides corrosion resistance and a professional appearance whilst protecting the steel underneath from rust and degradation, particularly important when your RC car is exposed to outdoor conditions and occasional moisture.
- Machine Thread Construction — Machine threads are engineered for strength and reliability in metric fastening applications, offering superior holding power compared to coarser alternatives and reducing the likelihood of vibration-induced loosening during operation.
- Pack of 10 Screws — Ten screws per pack provide plenty of spares for maintenance, repairs, and upgrades, ensuring you won't run short during a competitive season or intensive building session.
- Losi OEM Quality — As an official Losi component, these screws meet the manufacturer's exact specifications and quality standards, giving you confidence that you're using the correct part for your RC vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What RC vehicles use the Losi 3mm x 6mm Socket Head Screw? — These screws are compatible with the TLR 22 5.0 DC ELITE Race Kit and numerous other Losi RC models. If you own a Losi vehicle, check your manual or parts diagram to confirm compatibility, though these are standard metric fasteners used across the Losi range.
- Why would I need replacement socket head screws for my RC car? — RC vehicles experience constant vibration, impacts, and stress that can loosen or damage fasteners over time. Carrying spare screws ensures you can quickly replace stripped, lost, or damaged fasteners without interrupting your racing or bashing session, keeping your RC car UK-ready for the next event.
- Are these screws suitable for beginners? — Yes, socket head screws are actually excellent for beginners because the hex socket design is more forgiving than slotted fasteners and less prone to stripping. Beginners working on RC cars for the first time will appreciate the reliable grip and ease of use these fasteners provide.
- What tools do I need to install these screws? — You'll need a metric hex key (Allen key) in the appropriate size to fit the socket head. Most RC enthusiasts maintain a set of metric hex keys as essential tools for any RC car UK maintenance kit.
- Can I use these screws on other brands of RC vehicle? — If your RC vehicle uses M3 metric fasteners, these screws may be compatible, but always verify with your vehicle's manual first to ensure the thread size, length, and application match exactly. Using incorrect fasteners can damage your RC car.
- How many screws come in a pack? — Each pack contains 10 socket head screws, providing ample spares for maintenance, repairs, and upgrades to keep your RC vehicle running smoothly throughout the season.
