Key Features
- 8-32 Machine Thread Specification — The 8-32 thread size is a standard specification in RC hobby applications, ensuring compatibility with numerous Losi models and components that use this fastener specification, making these screws versatile across your collection.
- 5/8 Inch Length — The specific 5/8 inch length has been carefully chosen to work with Losi's precision-engineered components, providing the right engagement depth without protruding excessively and interfering with moving parts or clearances.
- Button Head Design — The button head profile sits lower than traditional cap head screws, allowing installation in confined spaces where standard screws would create interference, and presenting a cleaner appearance on your RC models.
- Hex Socket Driver — Each screw features a hex socket that accepts standard hex drivers, enabling quick and secure tightening with the correct tool, reducing the risk of stripping the screw head during installation or removal.
- Genuine Losi OEM Component — These are authentic manufacturer parts produced to Losi's specifications, guaranteeing fit, finish and reliability that may not be assured with generic or third-party fasteners.
- Pack of Eight Screws — The eight-screw quantity provides sufficient fasteners for multiple repair or assembly tasks, offering better value than buying individual screws and reducing the need for frequent reordering.

Technical Performance
The Losi 8-32 x 5/8 inch Button Head Screws represent a fundamental but critical component in the RC hobby ecosystem. The 8-32 thread specification denotes a number 8 screw diameter (approximately 4.17mm) with 32 threads per inch, a standard metric widely adopted across RC vehicle manufacturing. The machine thread construction means these screws are designed to work with pre-tapped holes in aluminium and composite materials common in modern RC car and truck construction. The button head design provides a compact profile that sits flush with surrounding components, crucial for maintaining proper clearances in suspension systems, electronics trays, and body panels where space is at a premium. The hex socket driver system ensures that tightening and removal can be performed with standard Allen keys or hex drivers, tools that every RC enthusiast has in their toolkit. At 5/8 inch length, these screws provide adequate thread engagement to create secure fastening without excessive protrusion. The genuine Losi manufacture ensures these screws meet the precise tolerances and material specifications required for reliable performance in the demanding environment of competitive and recreational RC vehicles.
