Key Features
- Strong and Durable Steel Construction — These button head screws are manufactured from high-quality steel that provides long-lasting performance, resisting corrosion and wear even with frequent use and servicing of your RC car in UK outdoor conditions.
- Precision Manufactured Threads — The threads are engineered with precision to ensure consistent fit and fast servicing, which means less frustration during maintenance and guaranteed compatibility with your ARRMA RC vehicle's designated mounting points.
- Flanged Button Head Design — The flanged button head configuration provides a larger bearing surface than standard fasteners, distributing load more effectively and reducing the risk of the fastener pulling through soft materials during assembly or vibration.
- Deep Hex Driver Engagement — The deep hex socket provides improved driver engagement, meaning your hex key will seat firmly in the fastener and reduce the likelihood of stripping the head during installation or removal, keeping your tools and fasteners in perfect condition.
- M4x18mm Metric Specification — The M4 diameter with 18mm overall length makes these fasteners ideal for use across ARRMA's range of RC vehicles, from small-scale buggies to larger monster trucks where this size fastener is specified in the design.
- Machine Thread Type — The machine thread specification ensures these screws work perfectly with threaded inserts and pre-drilled holes common in RC vehicle chassis and suspension components, providing reliable assembly every time.
- Pack of 10 Fasteners — Each pack includes 10 individual screws, giving you enough spares for multiple service sessions or the ability to stock your RC workshop and always have replacements on hand.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA BUTTON HEAD SCREW FLANGED M4x18mm V2 represents precision engineering applied to RC fasteners. At M4 diameter with 18mm overall length, these screws are dimensioned to meet ARRMA's specification for critical assembly points on their range of RC vehicles. The black finish provides both aesthetic consistency with ARRMA's design language and practical corrosion resistance. The flanged button head design is a sophisticated engineering solution that offers multiple advantages over standard socket head cap screws: the integrated flange acts as a washer, spreading the clamping load over a larger surface area, which is particularly important in RC applications where vibration and repeated assembly cycles are common. The precision-manufactured machine threads ensure that fasteners seat consistently, providing repeatable assembly torque and reliable holding power across multiple service cycles. For owners of the KRATON 6S EXB 4X4 RTR Speed Monster Truck and other compatible ARRMA models, using genuine OEM fasteners ensures that your RC car maintains its original performance characteristics and reliability. Whether you're servicing after a weekend of intense bashing or performing pre-competition checks on your RC monster truck, these fasteners deliver the quality and consistency that competitive and recreational RC enthusiasts demand.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are flanged button head screws used for in RC cars? — Flanged button head screws are used throughout RC vehicle construction for critical assembly points where you need a low-profile fastener head (that's what the button head design provides) combined with the load distribution benefits of an integral flange. The flange acts like a built-in washer, spreading clamping force over a larger area, which is especially important in RC applications where vibration and repeated assembly are common. These screws are commonly found securing chassis plates, suspension arms, and body mount points on RC trucks and buggies.
- Are these genuine ARRMA parts? — Yes, these are genuine ARRMA OEM replacement parts, identified by the official ARRMA part number Z-ARA721418. When you purchase from RC Model Shop, you're buying authentic components engineered and tested by ARRMA for perfect compatibility with their RC vehicles. Using genuine ARRMA parts ensures your vehicle maintains warranty coverage and performs exactly as the manufacturer intended.
- What size hex key do these screws use? — These button head screws feature a hex socket drive that accepts a standard metric hex key. The deep socket design ensures superior engagement with your hex key bit, reducing the risk of stripping during installation or removal, which is a common frustration with cheaper fasteners.
- Which ARRMA vehicles are these compatible with? — These M4x18mm flanged button head screws are specifically listed as compatible with the KRATON 6S EXB 4X4 RTR Speed Monster Truck. However, they may also fit other ARRMA models that use this fastener size in their design. If you're uncertain whether these screws are compatible with your specific RC vehicle, we recommend checking your model's manual or contacting our expert team at RC Model Shop.
- How many screws come in each pack? — Each pack contains 10 individual M4x18mm flanged button head screws, giving you plenty of spares for routine maintenance and servicing across multiple RC vehicles or multiple service sessions on a single vehicle.
- Why should I choose flanged button head screws over standard socket head cap screws? — The flanged design offers several advantages: the integrated flange distributes clamping load over a larger surface area, reducing the risk of fasteners pulling through soft materials; the low-profile button head sits flush with many RC components; and the deep hex socket provides superior driver engagement. For precision engineering-focused builders and racers, the flanged button head design is a superior choice for RC applications.
- Are these screws suitable for outdoor RC bashing? — Yes, these steel screws are designed for the demanding conditions of RC vehicle operation. The steel construction resists corrosion, and the precise engineering ensures they maintain their holding power through the vibration and repeated stress cycles that come with regular RC bashing, whether you're on UK grass, tarmac, or mud.
