Technical Performance
These Team Associated FHCS 4x12mm screws represent precision engineering at the fastener level, a detail that separates quality RC maintenance from improvised repairs. The M4 diameter provides substantial holding power whilst remaining lightweight, crucial for RC applications where every gram matters for performance and handling characteristics.

Made to exact Team Associated specifications, these screws utilise appropriate material hardness to resist stripping whilst remaining compatible with standard hex key tools.
