Technical Performance
The FTX Button Head Hex Screw M4 X 20mm represents precision engineering in fastener design, manufactured to ISO standards and FTX specifications for guaranteed compatibility across the entire FTX RC vehicle range. These screws are precision-cut from hardened steel alloy, providing excellent tensile strength and resistance to loosening under the vibration and shock loads experienced during typical RC car UK use. The M4 metric thread pitch is standard across FTX applications, and the 20mm length accommodates various mounting scenarios from lightweight aluminium component assemblies to reinforced plastic body shells and metal chassis parts. The button head profile is designed for optimal engagement with standard hex key tools, minimising cam-out and stripping whilst providing a clean, professional appearance on your finished RC build. Whether you're maintaining a crawler navigating rocky terrain, a high-speed buggy, or a technical scale model, these fasteners deliver the reliability and precision fit that serious RC enthusiasts demand. The hardened steel construction resists corrosion and maintains its integrity through numerous removal and reinstallation cycles, making these screws a cost-effective long-term investment for your RC hobby.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these FTX button head hex screws compatible with all FTX RC models? — Yes, these M4 X 20mm button head hex screws are manufactured to official FTX specifications and are compatible with the vast majority of FTX RC vehicles including the Outback range, Hi-Rock crawlers, Kanyon, Siege, Stinger, Vantage and many other models. However, it's always best to consult your specific vehicle manual to confirm the correct fastener size for your particular component.
- What tools do I need to install these screws? — These button head hex screws feature a hex socket (Allen key socket), so you'll need a standard metric hex key set to install or remove them. Most RC enthusiasts keep a quality hex key set in their toolbox as they're essential for general RC maintenance and upgrades.
- How many screws come in each pack and will one pack be enough for my repair? — Each pack contains eight button head hex screws, which is typically sufficient for most single repair or upgrade tasks. However, if you're performing extensive modifications or have multiple vehicles, you may want to consider buying multiple packs to maintain an adequate spare parts inventory.
- Are these screws suitable for beginners working on their first RC vehicle? — Absolutely. Button head hex screws are actually ideal for beginners because the hex socket design makes them easier to work with than traditional slotted fasteners, reducing the risk of accidentally stripping the screw head. As long as you use the correct size hex key and apply reasonable pressure, you should have no difficulty installing or removing these screws.
- Can I use these screws on other brands of RC vehicles? — Whilst these are officially manufactured for FTX vehicles, the M4 X 20mm dimension is a standard metric size that may be compatible with other RC brands that use similar fastener specifications. However, we always recommend using manufacturer-specified fasteners to guarantee perfect fit and performance on your specific vehicle.
- How should I store these screws to prevent loss or damage? — Store these button head hex screws in a cool, dry place, ideally in a small plastic organiser box or container to keep them together and prevent loss. Many RC enthusiasts maintain a spare parts cabinet or toolbox drawer dedicated to fasteners and small components, which is a best practice for serious hobbyists.
