Technical Performance
The FTX Rally MK2RS Metal Washer (5x9x0.5) is engineered from quality metal material chosen for its strength, durability and corrosion resistance. The specific 5x9x0.5mm dimensions indicate an outer diameter of 9mm, an inner diameter of 5mm, and a thickness of 0.5mm, making this washer suitable for use throughout the FTX MK2RS assembly where spacing, alignment and load distribution are critical. Metal washers in RC car construction serve multiple essential functions: they distribute clamp loads more evenly across components, prevent fasteners from sinking into softer materials, maintain precise spacing between parts, and help reduce vibration-induced loosening of critical assemblies. The FTX Rally MK2RS, as a 1/10th scale brushless rally car, experiences significant vibration and stress during operation, making quality metal washers essential to maintaining component integrity and performance consistency. Whether used in suspension assemblies, drivetrain components or chassis fastening points, genuine OEM metal washers like these ensure your rally car maintains the engineering tolerances and reliability that the manufacturer designed into the vehicle. Having spare metal washers available means you can perform maintenance and repairs quickly without hunting for substitute parts that might not fit properly or provide the necessary durability for competitive RC rally driving in the UK.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the FTX Rally MK2RS Metal Washer compatible with my RC rally car? — Yes, this metal washer is specifically designed for the FTX MK2RS 1/10th Brushless Rally Car RTR available in both white (FTX5470W) and black (FTX5470BK) colour options. If you own either of these authentic FTX rally cars, this genuine OEM spare part is engineered to fit perfectly within your vehicle's assembly. Always verify your model number matches before ordering spares to ensure compatibility.
- Why would I need replacement metal washers for my FTX rally car? — Metal washers wear, get lost or become damaged during regular use, maintenance and repair work. Having genuine replacement washers ensures you can complete reassembly of your FTX MK2RS without substituting incorrect parts that might not fit properly or provide adequate strength. Metal washers are small but critical components that maintain proper spacing and load distribution throughout your rally car's chassis and drivetrain, so keeping spares on hand is smart maintenance practice for serious RC hobbyists in the UK.
- What is the difference between metal and plastic washers in RC cars? — Metal washers provide superior durability, strength and load-bearing capacity compared to plastic alternatives. They resist deformation under vibration and stress, maintain precise dimensions through repeated assembly and disassembly cycles, and provide better corrosion resistance in various weather conditions. For a precision brushless rally car like the FTX MK2RS, genuine metal OEM washers ensure your vehicle maintains factory specifications and reliability throughout its operating life.
- How many washers do I need to keep as spares? — RC cars use multiple washers throughout their assemblies, so keeping a small supply of genuine FTX spare washers allows you to perform routine maintenance without delays. Many experienced RC enthusiasts purchase multiple spare parts simultaneously to ensure they have components available for repairs and rebuilds without waiting for replacement stock to arrive.
- Are FTX spare parts genuine and reliable? — Yes, FTX manufactures quality RC vehicles and parts to consistent standards. This metal washer is an authentic OEM component designed and manufactured to exact specifications for the FTX MK2RS. Choosing genuine manufacturer spares ensures compatibility, reliability and longevity compared to generic or non-OEM alternatives.
