Overview
The ARRMA Flat Head Screw M2.5x8mm (10pcs) Z-ARA702016 is an essential spare part for RC enthusiasts and serious hobbyists across the UK who own ARRMA RC vehicles. Whether you're maintaining a 1/16 scale GORGON GROM, 1/18 GRANITE GROM, 1/16 MOJAVE GROM, 1/14 TYPHON GROM, or any other compatible ARRMA RC car model, having a reliable stock of replacement fasteners is crucial to keeping your vehicle in peak running condition. These precision-engineered flat head screws are designed to meet ARRMA's exacting standards and provide the secure, consistent fit that competitive RC bashers and casual hobbyists alike demand from their spare parts.
When you're out enjoying your RC car UK hobby — whether at the local bash spot, the track, or during maintenance sessions in your garage — stripped screws, lost fasteners, and worn hardware are inevitable. This is precisely why ARRMA manufactures these replacement screws as genuine OEM parts. The M2.5x8mm specification is one of the most commonly used sizes across ARRMA's range of 4WD monster trucks and buggies, making this pack an indispensable addition to every RC modeller's workshop. With ten screws per pack, you'll always have spares on hand for repairs, upgrades, and ongoing maintenance without needing to source alternative parts from unknown suppliers.
Choosing genuine ARRMA replacement parts ensures compatibility, reliability, and the peace of mind that comes from using components explicitly designed and tested by the manufacturer for your specific RC vehicle. RC Model Shop stocks the full range of ARRMA spare parts, making it simple for UK RC enthusiasts to maintain their vehicles with confidence and keep their favourite ready-to-run RC cars performing at their best.
Key Features
- Genuine ARRMA OEM Component — These screws are manufactured by ARRMA as original equipment parts, ensuring they meet the exact specifications and tolerances required for perfect fit and function in all compatible ARRMA RC vehicles, eliminating any compatibility concerns.
- High-Quality Steel Construction — Made from strong steel material, these fasteners offer long-lasting durability and corrosion resistance that holds up to repeated assembly, disassembly, and the demanding conditions of RC car use including mud, water, and debris exposure.
- Precision Machine Threads — The screws feature precision-manufactured threads that ensure fast and easy installation during maintenance and repairs, allowing you to quickly get your RC vehicle back on the track or bashing ground without stripped threads or fitting difficulties.
- M2.5x8mm Specification — This size is one of the most commonly used fasteners across ARRMA's range of small to mid-scale RC vehicles, making replacement straightforward and compatible with numerous ARRMA models without needing to identify specific thread pitches or diameters.
- Flat Head Design — The flat head profile sits flush with the surrounding surface when properly installed, providing a clean appearance and preventing the screw head from snagging on wires, belts, or other components during operation.
- Pack of Ten — With ten screws included in each pack, you have sufficient spares for multiple repairs or complete drivetrain maintenance without running short, and you can keep additional packs in your workshop for unexpected damage or loss.
- Hex Driver Type — Compatible with standard hex driver bits and wrenches, these screws are simple to install and remove using readily available tools that most RC hobbyists already own or can easily source.
- Black Finish — The black colour matches the original factory appearance of ARRMA vehicles and provides a professional look that integrates seamlessly with your RC car's aesthetics whether displayed or in action.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Flat Head Screw M2.5x8mm represents the kind of meticulous engineering attention that goes into every component of ARRMA's RC vehicles. These fasteners are precision-manufactured to exacting tolerances, ensuring that the machine threads grip securely without over-tightening or stripping. The strong steel construction provides sufficient tensile strength to hold together suspension components, drivetrain parts, and chassis elements under the stress and vibration inherent to RC driving, whether you're running on rough off-road terrain with a monster truck, tackling high-speed buggy racing, or enjoying leisurely bashing sessions. The M2.5 diameter and 8mm length make these screws ideal for mounting smaller components and securing electronic housings, making them among the most versatile fasteners in the ARRMA spare parts catalogue. The hex driver head allows for quick engagement with standard 1.3mm hex drivers, eliminating the frustration of stripped Phillips heads or the difficulty of finding specialty screwdrivers. With a pack of ten screws, you're prepared for substantial repair work or can maintain a backup stock as part of your regular RC car maintenance kit, ensuring you're never caught without the right fastener when you need it most.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which ARRMA RC vehicles use M2.5x8mm flat head screws? — These screws are compatible with a wide range of ARRMA RC models, including the 1/16 GORGON GROM 4x4 RTR in all colour variants, the 1/18 GRANITE GROM MEGA 380 brushed 4x4 monster truck models, the 1/16 MOJAVE GROM 223S BLX 4x4 and MOJAVE GROM MEGA 380 desert trucks, and the 1/14 TYPHON GROM 223S BLX 4x4 buggy. If you own any ARRMA GROM-series small-scale RC vehicle, these screws are likely to be useful for maintenance and repair.
- Why should I buy genuine ARRMA replacement parts instead of generic screws? — Genuine ARRMA spare parts are engineered and tested specifically for ARRMA vehicles, ensuring perfect fit, proper thread pitch, and material quality that matches the original components your RC car was built with. Using OEM parts guarantees compatibility, maintains your vehicle's reliability, and protects your investment in quality RC equipment.
- How many repairs or maintenance cycles will ten screws cover? — With ten screws per pack, you have sufficient spares for multiple small repairs such as electronics housing replacement, component re-securing, or drivetrain work. For occasional bashers, this pack should last several months of regular use, whilst competitive drivers or those performing extensive modifications may want to stock multiple packs.
- Are these screws suitable for beginners working on RC cars? — Yes, absolutely. The M2.5x8mm flat head screw is a fundamental fastener used throughout ARRMA vehicles, and learning to work with these standard sizes is an essential skill for any RC hobbyist. The hex driver head makes them easier to work with than Phillips head alternatives, making them ideal for beginners developing their RC maintenance skills.
- What tools do I need to install these screws? — You'll need a 1.3mm hex driver bit or wrench to securely fasten or remove these screws. This size is standard across the RC hobby and most modellers already own multi-bit hex drivers in their toolkits, or they can be inexpensively purchased from any RC retailer.
- Can I use these screws on other RC brands? — Whilst the M2.5x8mm specification is a standard metric size, these are manufactured by ARRMA to ARRMA specifications and are guaranteed compatible only with ARRMA vehicles. For other RC brands, you should source screws from that manufacturer to ensure proper fit and thread compatibility.
