Key Features
- Genuine Traxxas Part — These screws are original equipment manufactured by Traxxas, the trusted name in RC hobby products across the UK, ensuring perfect compatibility and reliability with your Traxxas models.
- 3x15mm Machine Thread Specification — The M3 thread size with 15mm length makes these screws suitable for a wide range of Traxxas RC vehicles, from monster trucks to buggies and everything in between.
- Washer Head Design — The integrated washer head distributes clamping force over a larger surface area, preventing fasteners from pulling through soft materials and ensuring secure, stable connections on your RC car chassis and components.
- Pozi Drive Type — The Pozidriv driver type provides excellent grip and resistance to cam-out during installation and removal, making these screws far easier to work with than standard Phillips head alternatives, particularly important when working with delicate RC components.
- Silver Finish — The durable silver finish provides both aesthetic appeal and corrosion resistance, maintaining the professional appearance of your RC vehicle whilst protecting against rust and degradation from outdoor use and exposure to moisture.
- Pack of Six — With six individual screws per pack, you have sufficient spares for maintenance, repairs, or emergency replacements, making this an economical choice for keeping your RC hobby running smoothly without repeated ordering.
- Machine Thread Construction — Unlike wood screws, these are precision machine screws designed specifically for threaded holes and nuts, delivering reliable, repeatable fastening that won't strip or loosen during the vibration and stress of RC vehicle operation.
Technical Performance
These Traxxas washer head machine screws represent the pinnacle of precision fastening for RC applications in the UK hobby market. Manufactured to exacting tolerances, the M3 thread specification ensures perfect compatibility with Traxxas RC models designed to accept 3x15mm machine screws. The washer head design is engineered specifically to prevent fasteners from pulling through softer materials commonly used in RC chassis construction, distributing load evenly across the contact surface. The Pozidriv driver type is superior to standard Phillips head designs, offering increased contact area and reduced risk of cam-out—a critical consideration when working with small, precision components where fastener damage would render the screw unusable. The silver finish provides both durability and visual consistency with Traxxas's professional aesthetic standards. Each screw in the six-piece set has been manufactured to identical specifications, ensuring consistent performance across all fastening points on your RC car. Whether you're performing routine maintenance on your brushless RC vehicle, repairing damage from enthusiastic bashing, or building new models, these genuine Traxxas screws deliver the reliability and quality that serious RC enthusiasts demand from replacement parts.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these Traxxas machine screws work with my RC car? — These TRX3187 screws are original Traxxas replacement parts designed for Traxxas RC models that specify M3 x 15mm washer head machine screws in their assembly instructions. Check your vehicle's manual or parts diagram to confirm compatibility; if your Traxxas model originally used these screws, then the TRX3187 is the correct replacement.
- What makes washer head machine screws better than regular screws for RC cars? — Washer head machine screws feature an integrated washer that distributes clamping force over a wider surface area, preventing the fastener from pulling through soft materials like plastic and composite chassis components. Machine thread screws are precision-engineered for use with either pre-drilled threaded holes or nuts, offering far greater reliability than wood screws which can strip threads in soft plastics commonly found in RC vehicles.
- Why choose Traxxas genuine parts instead of generic fasteners? — Genuine Traxxas parts like the TRX3187 are engineered specifically for Traxxas vehicles and manufactured to exact specifications that ensure perfect fit, optimal thread engagement, and reliable performance. Generic fasteners from hardware stores may appear similar but often feature slightly different dimensions, thread pitches, or material properties that can result in loose connections, stripped threads, or fastener failure during use.
- How many screws will I need? — This pack contains six screws. The quantity you'll need depends on your specific repair or maintenance needs. Many RC enthusiasts keep multiple packs on hand as spares for emergency repairs, or purchase additional packs when building multiple vehicles or maintaining a collection of Traxxas RC models.
- Is the Pozidriv head type important? — Yes, the Pozidriv driver type provides significantly better grip and control compared to Phillips head designs, reducing the risk of cam-out where the driver slips out of the fastener head and damages both the screw and the surrounding component. This is particularly important when working with small precision fasteners on valuable RC equipment.
