Overview
The Traxxas Set (grub) screws, 3x4mm (8 pcs) / 4x4mm (stainless) (4 pcs) TRX1548 is an essential spare parts kit for RC enthusiasts who maintain and service their Traxxas models. Whether you're a serious RC competitor, a weekend basher, or someone who enjoys fine-tuning your RC car or truck, having the correct replacement fasteners on hand is crucial for keeping your model in peak condition. Grub screws are fundamental components that secure critical parts on RC vehicles, and this Traxxas genuine parts set ensures you have the exact specifications your model requires.
Traxxas is renowned for engineering excellence and precision manufacturing, and these grub screws are manufactured to exacting standards to guarantee perfect fitment and reliability. This pack combines two different sizes in one convenient kit, making it ideal for workshop use or for keeping as emergency spares. If you're building, maintaining or repairing your Traxxas RC model in the UK, these genuine Traxxas fasteners are the correct choice to ensure your model performs as the manufacturer intended.
For RC hobbyists who want to maintain their investment and keep their models running smoothly, using genuine manufacturer parts is always the best approach. This Traxxas grub screw set is compatible with a wide range of popular Traxxas models, from high-performance race boats to powerful brushless electric monster trucks and unlimited desert racer platforms.
Key Features
- Two different sizes in one set — This pack includes both 3x4mm and 4x4mm grub screws, allowing you to have multiple fastener sizes available for different applications on your RC model, reducing the need to purchase separate packs.
- Stainless steel construction on 4x4mm screws — The larger 4x4mm screws are manufactured from stainless steel, providing superior corrosion resistance and durability compared to standard steel, particularly important if your RC model is used in damp conditions or near salt water.
- Hex driver type — These grub screws feature a hex socket head design, allowing precise installation and removal with the correct hex key, ensuring you can work on your model without stripping the fastener heads.
- Machine thread specification — The machine thread design ensures consistent engagement with threaded holes on your RC model, providing reliable fastening that resists vibration and loosening during operation.
- Genuine Traxxas original parts — As official Traxxas replacement components, these screws are manufactured to the exact specifications required by Traxxas RC models, guaranteeing compatibility and performance.
- Convenient quantity pack — With 8 pieces of 3x4mm screws and 4 pieces of 4x4mm screws, you have sufficient quantities for repairs, rebuilds, or maintenance tasks without excessive surplus.
Technical Performance
These grub screws are precision-engineered fasteners designed to meet the demanding requirements of high-performance RC vehicles. The 3x4mm size screws are ideal for lighter-duty applications and securing smaller components, whilst the 4x4mm stainless steel variant provides enhanced strength and corrosion resistance for more critical fastening points. The hex socket head design allows for precise torque application during installation, which is essential because over-tightening fasteners can damage threaded plastic components common in RC models, whilst under-tightening can result in loose parts during operation. The machine thread specification ensures these screws will thread properly into the corresponding holes on Traxxas models without slipping or cross-threading. The stainless steel material used on the 4x4mm screws offers superior longevity, particularly for RC enthusiasts who run their models in wet conditions or coastal environments where standard steel fasteners would be prone to rust and corrosion.
What's in the Box
- 8 x 3x4mm grub screws (hex drive, machine thread)

Frequently Asked Questions
- What Traxxas RC models are these grub screws compatible with? — These screws are compatible with a wide range of Traxxas models including the Traxxas Blast 1:10 high-performance race boats (both orange and green variants), the Traxxas Sledge Belted 1:8 4WD brushless electric monster truck (available in blue, orange, green, and red colour options), the Traxxas UDR Unlimited Desert Racer pro-scale 4WD RTR short course truck (including both the Rigid Industries and Fox Racing editions), and various other Traxxas RC vehicles that utilise these fastener sizes.
- Are these screws suitable for use on brushless RC trucks? — Yes, these are ideal for maintenance and repair of brushless RC trucks. The Traxxas Sledge Belted 1:8 4WD brushless electric monster truck is explicitly listed as compatible, and these fasteners work perfectly on high-performance brushless models where reliability is essential.
- What is the difference between the two sizes included in this set? — The 3x4mm screws are the smaller option, suitable for lighter applications and securing smaller components, whilst the 4x4mm screws are larger and constructed from stainless steel, making them more robust and corrosion-resistant for use in securing more critical components or in demanding conditions.
- Why are the 4x4mm screws made from stainless steel? — Stainless steel provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard steel, which is particularly important for RC models that may be exposed to moisture, rain, or coastal environments. This material choice extends the lifespan of the fasteners and helps prevent rust that could affect your model's performance and appearance.
- Can I use these screws as replacements for lost or damaged fasteners? — Absolutely. These genuine Traxxas replacement screws are specifically designed for this purpose, making them perfect for restoring your model to original condition after accidental damage or normal wear and tear from regular use.
- What tools do I need to install these grub screws? — You will need a hex key (Allen key) of the appropriate size to fit the hex socket in the screw head. Traxxas models typically come with the correct hex key sizes, or they are available separately from RC model shops.
