Key Features

• Button Head Design — The rounded button head profile provides a sleek, clean appearance on your RC model whilst offering practical benefits during assembly and maintenance, as the rounded head is less likely to catch on surrounding components or snag on terrain during use.
• Hex Socket — The precise hexagonal socket accepts standard hex wrenches and screwdrivers, allowing for quick and secure tightening with minimal risk of stripping the fastener head, which is essential for maintaining the integrity of your RC vehicle.
• M3 Thread Size — The M3 metric threading matches the factory specifications of the FMS 1:10 F100 RC model, ensuring perfect fitment and compatibility with all corresponding threaded holes throughout the chassis and suspension components.
• 10mm Length — The 10mm length is precisely engineered to match the original component specifications, providing optimal depth for reliable connection without protrusion that could interfere with surrounding parts or create unnecessary weight distribution issues.
• Quality Construction — FMS parts are manufactured to strict quality standards, ensuring consistent performance, reliability and durability that will stand up to the rigours of regular RC use whether you're bashing in your garden or competing at the track.
• Perfect Spare Part — Having genuine replacement fasteners ensures you can quickly repair or upgrade your RC model without delays, keeping your vehicle in the action rather than on the workbench waiting for parts to arrive.

Technical Performance

The FMS Button Head Hex Screw M3*10 represents precision engineering in fastener design for RC applications. As a metric M3 fastener with a 10mm overall length, this component is engineered to specification-perfect tolerances that ensure it seats properly in the threaded holes of your FMS 1:10 F100 model. The button head design, combined with the hexagonal socket, creates a fastener that is both aesthetically pleasing and functionally superior for RC applications. Unlike Phillips head or slot-head alternatives, the hex socket design distributes pressure more evenly across the fastener head, reducing the risk of stripping or damage during installation and removal. This is particularly important in RC vehicles, where fasteners are subjected to vibration, impact loads and repeated assembly-disassembly cycles. The quality of the material and manufacturing process ensures that these screws maintain their integrity through countless hours of driving, jumping and crashing. Whether you're securing suspension components, chassis elements or body panels, the engineering behind this fastener delivers the reliability that RC enthusiasts demand. The compact size and lightweight profile ensure that replacement or repair work doesn't affect your vehicle's handling characteristics or balance. For anyone running an FMS 1:10 scale RC model, having genuine OEM fasteners ensures compatibility, performance and peace of mind.
