Technical Performance
The Futaba Servo Mounting Screw 3 x 16mm heavy duty pack represents the engineering excellence that has made Futaba a trusted name in radio control for over seven decades. These screws are engineered using precision manufacturing to exact tolerances, ensuring that thread engagement is perfect and holding force is consistent across all twelve units in the pack. The heavy duty specification means the screws are manufactured from higher-grade materials than standard fasteners, providing superior corrosion resistance and mechanical strength that withstands the demanding environment of RC operation. The 3 x 16mm dimension is the industry-standard servo mounting screw size used across numerous Futaba servo models including the popular S9152 and S9153 units, making these screws universally useful throughout your RC collection. With a shipping weight of just 0.01kg, these screws contribute negligible mass to your RC build whilst providing maximum holding reliability. Whether you're building a high-performance brushless RC car, maintaining a nitro-powered RC truck, or setting up RC helicopter servo linkages, the quality of your fastening hardware directly impacts control response, servo centering accuracy and overall vehicle handling. Futaba's commitment to quality means these screws won't strip easily, won't corrode in damp storage conditions, and will maintain secure grip through hundreds of operating hours. The pack is age-recommended for 14 years and above, reflecting the precision and small-parts nature of RC servo installation and maintenance.
