Technical Performance

The FMS Button Head Hex Screw M3*20 represents a precision fastening solution engineered to exacting standards for reliable performance in RC vehicle applications. The M3 diameter provides sufficient thread engagement for secure fastening without adding unnecessary weight to your 1/10 scale model, whilst the 20mm length accommodates various assembly points on FMS vehicles including chassis components, suspension brackets, and body mounts. The button head profile is manufactured from hardened steel, providing excellent resistance to loosening under vibration and the constant stresses experienced during dynamic RC driving. The hex drive design ensures that applying fastener torque is consistent and controllable, preventing over-tightening which could strip the threads or damage surrounding plastic or aluminium components common on modern RC chassis. For drivers and builders in the UK RC community who demand reliability and precision in their maintenance parts, this screw meets professional standards and integrates seamlessly with your existing FMS parts collection. Whether you're performing routine maintenance, replacing damaged fasteners, or building a complete spares kit for trackside repairs, this button head hex screw delivers the engineering quality and reliability expected from an official FMS component.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is the FMS Button Head Hex Screw M3*20 compatible with my RC vehicle? — This screw is designed specifically for 1/10 scale FMS F100 models. However, the M3*20 specification is a standard fastener size used across many RC vehicles and brands, so it may be compatible with other models using M3 fastening points. We recommend checking your vehicle's manual or contacting our team at RC Model Shop to confirm compatibility with your specific RC car or truck before ordering.
• What tools do I need to install this button head hex screw? — The hex drive socket requires a standard hex key or Allen key, typically 2mm in size for M3 fasteners, or a compatible hex bit driver. This makes installation straightforward and accessible for all skill levels without requiring specialised tools.
• Why should I choose a button head hex screw over other fastener types? — Button head hex screws offer several advantages over slotted or Phillips head alternatives. The hex drive provides superior grip and torque control, reducing the risk of stripping, whilst the rounded button head gives a professional appearance and won't snag on surrounding components during assembly or maintenance of your ready to run RC model.
• How many screws might I need? — The exact number depends on your specific FMS model and any repairs or modifications you're planning. Many RC enthusiasts recommend keeping multiple spares on hand, as these fasteners are small and easily misplaced. Stocking several units ensures you're prepared for any maintenance scenario.
