The Tracer series from FTX represents some of the most popular ready to run RC monster trucks available in the UK market today. These compact yet capable off-road machines are built for durability and performance, and like all mechanical devices, they occasionally require replacement parts. The pan head design of these fasteners provides excellent holding power whilst maintaining a low profile that won't interfere with the tight tolerances found in 1/16 scale RC vehicles. By using genuine FTX replacement parts, you ensure that your RC truck maintains its factory quality and continues to deliver the performance and reliability that FTX is known for throughout the UK RC community.
Stocking genuine FTX spares means you're never left waiting when your ready to run RC machine needs a quick fix. These self-tapping screws are the exact components used in the manufacturing of FTX Tracer trucks, guaranteeing fitment and performance. Whether you're replacing worn fasteners, upgrading components, or simply maintaining a spare parts box for your RC collection, the FTX Tracer Pan Head Self Tapping Screws PBHO2.3*4mm are an indispensable addition to any RC enthusiast's workshop.
Key Features
- Self-Tapping Design — These screws feature self-tapping threads that cut their own pathway into materials, eliminating the need for pre-drilled holes and allowing for quicker, more convenient installation and maintenance on your RC truck without additional preparation work.
- Pan Head Profile — The pan head design provides a larger bearing surface than alternatives, distributing load more effectively and reducing the risk of the screw pulling through softer materials whilst maintaining a compact, low-profile appearance suitable for 1/16 scale vehicles.
- Precise Dimensions — With specifications of PBHO2.3*4mm, these fasteners are engineered to exact OEM tolerances, ensuring perfect compatibility with FTX Tracer chassis components, body mounts, and internal assemblies without any fitment issues.
- FTX OEM Quality — Manufactured to original equipment manufacturer standards by FTX, these are genuine replacement parts that meet the same quality control specifications as those found in new FTX Tracer RTR trucks, guaranteeing reliability and longevity.
- Ideal for Maintenance and Repair — Whether you're performing routine maintenance, replacing worn fasteners from regular use, or repairing damage from off-road bashing, these screws are essential consumables for any FTX Tracer owner serious about keeping their ready to run RC investment in top condition.
- Compatible with Tracer Range — These fasteners are specifically engineered for use with the entire FTX Tracer 1/16 monster truck line, ensuring perfect compatibility across all colour variants and bundle options available in the UK market.
Technical Performance
The FTX Tracer Pan Head Self Tapping Screws PBHO2.3*4mm represent precision fastening engineering optimised for 1/16 scale RC applications. The PBHO designation indicates the specific head style and thread pattern, whilst the 2.3*4mm measurement refers to the precise diameter and length specifications required for FTX Tracer assembly. The self-tapping mechanism means these screws generate their own threads as they're installed, creating secure, repeatable connections in plastic and composite materials commonly used throughout modern RC monster truck chassis and bodywork. The pan head profile is particularly suited to low-profile mounting applications where traditional fasteners might protrude excessively or interfere with moving components. These fasteners are essential consumables for RC enthusiasts who regularly maintain, upgrade, or repair their vehicles, as vibration and regular use can cause screws to loosen or fasteners to strip over time. By keeping genuine FTX replacement screws in your spares box, you ensure that any maintenance or repair work can be completed quickly and reliably without compromising the structural integrity or cosmetic appearance of your ready to run RC monster truck.
