For anyone maintaining RC cars in the UK, having spare fasteners on hand is simply good practice. This set eliminates the frustration of searching for replacement parts when you need them most, allowing you to get back to enjoying your RC hobby without unnecessary downtime.

Key Features

• Locking nuts for 3mm fasteners (11 pieces) — These precision-engineered 3mm lock nuts prevent unwanted loosening caused by the constant vibration and movement during RC car operation, providing secure fastening for critical suspension and chassis components that use this size fastener.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas Nut Set TRX1252 comprises high-quality metal fasteners that have been tested and proven across thousands of Traxxas RC vehicles worldwide. The locking mechanism on both the 3mm and 4mm nuts works by deforming slightly as they're tightened, creating friction that prevents loosening from vibration—a critical engineering feature for any RC car operating at speed. The included washers are designed to distribute force evenly across the mounting surface, preventing the fasteners from digging into softer materials and causing irreparable damage. These components are manufactured to precise tolerances, ensuring smooth assembly and reliable performance. The combination of 11 pieces of 3mm lock nuts and 7 pieces of 4mm lock nuts provides comprehensive coverage for the most common fastening points on Traxxas vehicles, whilst the washer set ensures professional-grade assembly quality. Whether you're rebuilding a crashed RC car, performing regular maintenance, or constructing a competition-grade setup, these genuine components provide the reliability that serious RC enthusiasts demand.
