Key Features

• Aluminium construction — Machined from lightweight aluminium material, these nuts reduce unsprung weight on your RC vehicle whilst maintaining excellent strength and durability, which is crucial for performance in both on-road and off-road RC applications.
• Flanged design — The flanged nut head provides a larger contact surface than standard nuts, distributing load more evenly and preventing fasteners from digging into softer materials, which is essential for protecting your RC truck's chassis and components.
• Serrated and locking feature — The serrated edges provide a locking mechanism that prevents vibration-induced loosening, meaning your nuts will stay tight during aggressive driving, high-speed runs, and rough terrain bashing without requiring threadlocker compound.
• Red-anodised finish — The vibrant red-anodised coating not only looks fantastic on your RC car but also provides protective oxide layer that resists corrosion and wear, keeping your nuts looking sharp and functioning perfectly over extended use.
• M4 thread size — Specifically designed as 4mm (M4) fasteners, these nuts are compatible with numerous Traxxas models and fit standard M4 threaded shafts and studs found throughout Traxxas RC vehicles.
• Pack of four — Each pack contains four individual nuts, providing enough fasteners for multiple repairs or upgrades across different areas of your RC truck, or enabling you to replace all four corner fasteners on suspension components.

Technical Performance

These Traxxas replacement nuts represent precision engineering at the fastener level. Manufactured from high-grade aluminium and finished with professional red-anodising, they deliver the lightweight performance characteristics that RC enthusiasts demand whilst maintaining the strength required for reliable fastening in demanding RC applications. The flanged design is particularly important in RC vehicles where fasteners connect suspension components, chassis plates, and drivetrain elements that experience constant vibration and stress during operation. The serrated locking feature eliminates the need for additional threadlocker products, saving time during assembly and maintenance whilst providing confidence that your RC truck's fasteners will remain secure through hours of driving. The M4 thread specification makes these nuts compatible with a wide range of Traxxas platforms, from the Mini Maxx BL-2S compact electric RC truck through to larger models like the Stampede 4X4 HD VXL, Slash 4X4 BL-2S, and the TRX-4 crawler platform. Users have reported that these nuts never come loose even under heavy use, which speaks to the effectiveness of the serrated locking design. The red-anodised finish not only matches Traxxas colour schemes on many models but also indicates the professional quality of the fastening solution.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will these Traxxas nuts come loose on my RC truck? — No. The serrated and locking design of these nuts is specifically engineered to prevent vibration-induced loosening. Users report these nuts never come loose, even under heavy bashing and competitive use, making them far superior to standard fasteners for RC vehicles.
• What size are these nuts and will they fit my Traxxas model? — These are M4 (4mm) flanged serrated nuts. They are compatible with a wide range of Traxxas models including Mini Maxx BL-2S, Rustler Ultimate VXL 4x4, Slash 4X4 BL-2S, Slash HD XL-5, Stampede 4X4 HD VXL, TRX-4 Bronco, and TRX-4 Defender. Check your model's specification or contact our RC Model Shop team to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle.
• Why choose aluminium nuts over steel? — Aluminium nuts offer several advantages for RC vehicles: they are significantly lighter, which reduces unsprung weight and improves handling and acceleration; they resist corrosion better than steel, particularly important in damp UK weather conditions; the red-anodised finish provides both protection and aesthetic appeal; and they provide more than sufficient strength for fastening RC suspension and chassis components whilst contributing to overall vehicle performance.
• Do I need to use threadlocker with these nuts? — No, the serrated locking feature provides built-in vibration resistance, eliminating the need for threadlocker compound. This saves time during assembly and maintenance, though threadlocker can be used for additional security if desired.
• What is the flanged design and why does it matter? — The flanged head on these nuts is wider than standard nut designs, creating a larger bearing surface. This distributes load more evenly, prevents the nut from pulling through softer materials, and provides better grip without damaging components, which is crucial for protecting your RC truck's chassis and drivetrain parts.
• How many nuts come in each pack? — Each pack contains four individual M4 nuts, providing enough fasteners for multiple repairs across your RC vehicle, or enabling complete replacement of corner fasteners on suspension components.
