Technical Performance
The M2.5 x 10 BHCS fasteners are precision-engineered components manufactured to exacting tolerances by Team Associated. The button head cap screw format features a cylindrical head that sits flush or slightly proud of the mounting surface, providing superior engagement compared to flat-head designs. The M2.5 diameter provides sufficient strength for general assembly and maintenance applications across RC vehicles ranging from 2WD buggies to 4WD touring cars and monster trucks. The 10mm length is calibrated to work across the standard thickness tolerances of Associated aluminium chassis plates, suspension components and structural elements. The smooth, polished finish of genuine Team Associated screws resists corrosion and galling, ensuring reliable service life even in humid UK conditions. These fasteners are manufactured from high-grade steel alloy, offering excellent shear strength and thread integrity under the vibrational stresses inherent to RC vehicle operation.
