Technical Performance
The FMS Button Head Pointer Screw ST3*10 represents precision engineering in miniature form. Manufactured from durable materials selected specifically for automotive RC applications, this screw is designed to withstand the vibration, torque, and stress that comes with operating 1:10 scale RC cars at speed. The ST3*10 specification refers to the exact thread pitch and length, ensuring compatibility across the FMS F100 platform. Whether you're securing aluminium chassis components, plastic body panels, or composite suspension parts, this screw delivers reliable fastening performance. The button head profile has been engineered to prevent over-tightening damage to softer materials whilst providing adequate clamping force for metal components. The pointer design enhances engagement and prevents cross-threading, a common problem when working with small fasteners on RC models. Quality replacement screws like this are not an afterthought — they're essential components that contribute directly to your model's structural integrity, handling characteristics, and overall reliability during operation.
