- Hex Drive Socket — The hex drive design offers superior grip compared to Phillips head or slotted alternatives, greatly reducing the risk of stripping and cam-out that can damage screws and surrounding components during assembly or disassembly.

- Pack of Six — This six-piece pack provides multiple spares for different maintenance tasks, modifications, or allows complete fastener replacement across multiple assemblies on your RC vehicle.

Technical Performance
These Traxxas replacement screws represent precision engineering at its finest, manufactured using high-quality steel with superior corrosion resistance properties. The 3x36mm dimension provides substantial holding power whilst remaining lightweight, critical characteristics for RC applications where every gram matters for performance and handling. The hex drive socket accommodates standard 2.0mm hex drivers, the industry standard tool size found in every RC enthusiast's toolkit. The countersunk head geometry has been precisely engineered to sit flush when fastened into corresponding countersunk holes, a design feature that prevents head protrusion which could interfere with moving parts, electronics, or body panels. The thread pitch and cutting design ensure these screws bite securely into plastic inserts, threaded holes, and metal components commonly found throughout Traxxas RC vehicles. Whether you're maintaining a brushless RC 4WD truck, a competitive race buggy, or a high-speed ready to run model, these fasteners provide the reliability and performance you expect from Traxxas engineering.
