Overview
The ARRMA Cap Head Screw M3x30mm (10) Z-ARA-1618 is an essential replacement part for any RC enthusiast who owns an ARRMA vehicle. Whether you're a seasoned RC car UK competitor or someone just getting started with brushless RC trucks, having a reliable supply of quality fasteners is crucial for keeping your model in peak condition. These precision-manufactured cap head screws are specifically designed to meet ARRMA's exacting standards, ensuring that your RC buggy, RC short course truck, or other ARRMA model maintains the structural integrity and performance it was built for.
Cap head screws are fundamental components in any RC car, truck, or buggy assembly. They secure essential parts such as suspension arms, chassis plates, motor mounts, and transmission housings. When these fasteners wear out, strip, or go missing during maintenance or crashes, having a pack of genuine ARRMA replacements on hand means you can get back to the track or trail without delay. This pack of 10 screws gives you the spares you need to keep your RC model running smoothly, making it an indispensable addition to any RC enthusiast's toolkit.
The M3x30mm specification makes these screws ideal for a wide range of ARRMA vehicles, particularly compatible with models like the SENTON 223S BLX Brushless 4X4 Short Course Truck. The precision engineering and high-quality steel construction ensure that these screws deliver consistent performance over countless repair cycles and rebuilds, making them the smart choice for anyone serious about maintaining their RC investment.
Key Features
- Strong steel material — These cap head screws are manufactured from durable steel that provides long-lasting strength and reliability, resisting the vibrations, impacts, and stresses that come with serious RC driving without stripping or breaking under normal use.
- Precision manufactured threads — Each screw is engineered with precision-cut threads that engage smoothly and securely in the threaded holes of your ARRMA vehicle, making assembly and disassembly quick and easy during routine maintenance or repairs.
- Cap head hex configuration — The distinctive cap head design with hex driver provides excellent grip and torque application, allowing you to tighten screws securely without risk of cam-out or slipping, which is essential for maintaining proper assembly integrity.
- M3 metric sizing — The M3 diameter specification is a standard size across ARRMA's range of vehicles, making these screws versatile replacements that work with multiple models in your collection.
- 30mm thread length — The 30mm length is precisely suited for the critical fastening points throughout your ARRMA vehicle, from suspension components to chassis assemblies, ensuring optimal engagement without protrusion.
- Pack of 10 screws — This generous pack quantity means you always have spares available, eliminating downtime when you need a replacement and giving you the confidence to tackle repairs and upgrades without worrying about running out of fasteners.
- Bagged for convenience — The screws are packaged in a protective bag that keeps them organised and prevents loss, making storage and inventory management straightforward for RC enthusiasts with multiple vehicles.
Technical Performance
These ARRMA cap head screws represent the kind of meticulous engineering that sets genuine manufacturer parts apart from generic alternatives. The M3x30mm specification has been carefully selected by ARRMA's engineers to work perfectly with the suspension geometry, chassis design, and assembly points found across their range of RC vehicles, including the popular brushless RC short course truck lineup. The black colour provides a finished appearance whilst also offering corrosion resistance compared to bare metal alternatives. The precise metric threading ensures that when you're assembling your RC car or performing maintenance on your brushless RC truck, each screw seats perfectly without the wobble or inconsistency that can occur with lower-quality fasteners. The steel material is robust enough to handle the constant cycles of removal and reinstallation that come with regular maintenance, yet won't become brittle or lose its structural integrity over time. For serious RC enthusiasts in the UK who demand reliability, these precision-engineered fasteners deliver the performance and consistency you expect from genuine ARRMA replacement parts.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What vehicles are these cap head screws compatible with? — These M3x30mm cap head screws are specifically compatible with ARRMA vehicles, including the SENTON 223S BLX Brushless 4X4 Short Course Truck available in Red, Yellow, and Blue/Purple colour options. They are also suitable for many other ARRMA models in the current and recent range that use M3x30mm fastening points.
- Why should I use genuine ARRMA replacement screws instead of generic ones? — Genuine ARRMA cap head screws are engineered to exact specifications that match your vehicle's assembly points perfectly. Generic screws may have slightly different thread pitch, length tolerance, or material quality, which can result in poor fitment, difficulty with installation, or premature stripping. Using genuine parts ensures your RC car, truck, or buggy maintains the structural integrity and reliability ARRMA designed into it.
- How often do I need to replace these screws? — With proper care and maintenance, these durable steel fasteners can be reused many times. However, if you notice stripped threads, difficulty tightening, or visible damage during maintenance, replacement is recommended. Having a spare pack of 10 ensures you can address any fastening issues immediately without delaying your RC driving time.
- What is the difference between cap head screws and other screw types? — Cap head screws, also called socket head cap screws, feature a hex socket in the top of the screw head and a cylindrical head design. This configuration provides better torque application and grip compared to slotted or Phillips head alternatives, reducing the risk of cam-out or damage to the screw head — critical when working on precision RC models where reliability is essential.
- Are these screws suitable for beginners? — Yes, absolutely. These cap head screws are fundamental components for anyone maintaining an ARRMA RC vehicle, whether you're a beginner just learning maintenance or an experienced racer. The precision engineering means they work consistently without requiring specialist knowledge, making them ideal for anyone getting started with RC car UK ownership and maintenance.
