Key Features

• M3 Thread Size — These fasteners are manufactured to M3 specification, ensuring perfect compatibility with the threaded holes and mounting points found across the FTX range of RC vehicles, delivering secure and reliable fastening without risk of cross-threading or loosening.
• 14mm Length — The 14mm length is precisely engineered to suit specific mounting applications throughout FTX models, providing adequate grip and clamping force whilst remaining clear of internal components and mechanisms.
• Countersunk Flat Head Design — The countersunk profile sits flush with the surface of your RC model's body panels and chassis components, maintaining aerodynamics and preventing snagging, whilst the flat head geometry distributes clamping force effectively across the mounting surface.
• Hex Socket Drive — The hexagonal socket accepts standard hex key drivers, providing secure engagement without cam-out or slipping, allowing you to apply consistent torque during installation and ensuring the fastener remains tight through the vibrations and impacts of RC driving.
• Black Finish — The black powder-coated or anodised finish protects against corrosion and rust, particularly important when your RC car is used in wet conditions or stored for extended periods, maintaining the longevity and reliability of these critical fasteners.
• Machine Thread Construction — These are machine thread screws rather than wood screws, meaning they feature precise pitch and engagement characteristics designed specifically for use with threaded inserts and pre-tapped holes commonly found in RC vehicle chassis and body mounts.
• Pack of Six — Each pack contains six individual fasteners, providing sufficient spares for multiple repair operations or allowing you to replace all fasteners at specific mounting points across your RC vehicle in one operation.

Technical Performance

The FTX Flat Head Hex M3*14 fasteners represent precision engineering tailored specifically for the demands of RC vehicle maintenance and repair. Manufactured to exacting standards with machine thread specification, these screws are engineered to work seamlessly with the factory-specified threaded holes found in FTX RC vehicles including the Banzai 1/10th scale 4WD RTR brushed electric street drift car, the Bugsta 4WD brushed 1/10th off-road buggy, the Carnage 2.0 1/10 brushed truck 4WD RTR available in both red and blue finish variants, the Carnage NT 1/10th RTR 4WD nitro truck, the Vantage 2.0 brushed buggy 1/10 4WD RTR, and the Zorro trophy truck brushless RTR. The M3 diameter provides a common sizing standard across electrical connectors, suspension mounts, body clips, and chassis fastening points, whilst the 14mm length ensures adequate grip length without over-extension. The countersunk flat head profile ensures fasteners remain flush with mounting surfaces, particularly important in areas where aerodynamic efficiency matters or where body panels need to sit smoothly without protrusions that could catch on terrain during off-road driving. The black finish provides excellent corrosion resistance, essential for models subjected to muddy terrain, water crossings, or prolonged outdoor storage between driving sessions.
