Overview
The Futaba Servo Horn Screw 3 x 8mm (10pc) is an essential spare parts pack for RC enthusiasts across the UK who rely on genuine Futaba servo hardware. Whether you're maintaining your RC car, RC helicopter, or any other RC model that uses Futaba servos, these precision-engineered screws are the perfect addition to your spares box. As an authorised Futaba retailer, RC Model Shop stocks only genuine Futaba components, ensuring you get the exact specifications and quality you need for reliable servo horn attachment.
Servo horn screws are critical fasteners that secure your servo horns to the servo output shafts. Over time, with regular use in competitive racing, weekend bashing, or casual flying, these small but vital screws can become lost, damaged, or stripped. Having a backup supply of genuine Futaba screws means you can complete repairs quickly and get back to enjoying your RC hobby without delays. The pack of 10 provides excellent value and means you'll have spare screws for multiple servos or future repairs.
Futaba has been a leader in RC radio control technology since 1962, and their servo systems are trusted by hobbyists and professionals alike. These servo horn screws are manufactured to exact Futaba specifications, ensuring perfect compatibility with your servo hardware. Whether you're setting up a new servo, replacing worn screws, or building an RC vehicle from scratch, genuine Futaba parts give you the confidence that everything will work together perfectly.
Key Features
- Genuine Futaba Hardware — These are authentic Futaba-manufactured screws, not aftermarket copies, ensuring they meet the exact specifications required for safe and secure servo horn attachment to your Futaba servo output shafts.

- 3 x 8mm Size Specification — The precise 3mm diameter by 8mm length dimensions are designed specifically for compatibility with Futaba servo horns labelled for S9154 and BLS174SV servos, ensuring a perfect fit every time.
- Essential Maintenance Item — Servo horn screws are subject to vibration and wear during normal operation, and having genuine spares on hand means you can maintain your RC models in peak condition without waiting for replacements to arrive.
- Compatible with Multiple Futaba Servos — Labelled for S9154/BLS174SV, these screws offer suggested compatibility across the Futaba servo range, though verification against your existing hardware is recommended before installation.

Technical Performance
These servo horn screws represent the engineering quality you'd expect from Futaba, a company that has dominated the RC radio control market since the 1960s. At 3 x 8mm, they are precision-manufactured fasteners designed to withstand the rotational forces and vibration typical in RC servos. The screws are small but critical components — they must be strong enough to hold servo horns securely under continuous operation, yet fine enough to fit precisely into the servo horn mounting holes. The pack of 10 pieces ensures you have adequate spares for routine maintenance, repairs, and future projects. Quality fasteners are essential for reliable servo operation; using genuine Futaba screws rather than generic alternatives reduces the risk of stripped threads, loose connections, or servo horn slippage during operation. Whether you're running an RC car UK model, a remote control helicopter, or any other RC system using Futaba servos, these screws provide the secure attachment point your servo needs to function properly. The small weight (0.01kg per pack) means they're practical to keep in your RC toolkit alongside other essential spares and tools.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What servos are these servo horn screws compatible with? — These screws are labelled for Futaba S9154 and BLS174SV servos. They are designed specifically for these models, though they may fit other Futaba servo horns of the same size. We strongly recommend verifying the sizing against your existing hardware before installation to ensure proper fit and prevent damage to your servo or control linkages.
- Why should I buy genuine Futaba screws rather than generic fasteners? — Genuine Futaba screws are manufactured to exact specifications designed for Futaba servo horns, ensuring precise fit, correct thread compatibility, and reliable holding power under the vibration and rotational forces typical in RC operation. Generic screws may have slightly different dimensions, inferior materials, or poor thread quality, which can lead to stripped threads, loose servo horns, or unreliable servo operation during critical moments in flying or racing.
- How many screws do I need for my RC servo setup? — Typically, you'll need one screw per servo horn to secure it to the servo output shaft. This pack of 10 provides enough screws for ten individual servo installations, or multiple servos on a single large model, plus spares for future repairs and maintenance.
- Are these suitable for beginners working on RC models? — Yes, absolutely. Servo horn screw replacement is a straightforward maintenance task suitable for RC beginners. These genuine Futaba screws are clearly specified for S9154/BLS174SV servos, making selection simple. Always verify sizing against your existing hardware before installation, and ensure you don't over-tighten the screw, which could damage the servo horn or output shaft.
- How often do servo horn screws need replacing? — Under normal conditions, servo horn screws rarely require replacement. However, vibration, impacts, and repeated removal and installation can wear or loosen them. Keeping spares on hand means you can quickly address any issues without waiting for replacements, minimising downtime for your RC vehicles and models.
- What should I do if my servo horn screw is stripped or damaged? — If the screw itself is damaged, replacement is straightforward — simply remove the old screw and install a new one from this pack. If the servo's output shaft threads are stripped, the situation is more serious and may require servo replacement or professional repair. This is why using quality screws and avoiding over-tightening is important for long servo life.
