Team Associated M2.5 x 8 BHCS Screws Pack of 10 Metric Fasteners AS31521

Overview

Team Associated M2.5 x 8 BHCS screws are essential spare parts for RC enthusiasts and hobbyists across the UK. Whether you're maintaining your RC car, buggy, truck or other RC models, having a reliable supply of metric fasteners is crucial for keeping your equipment in top condition. These metric screws are supplied in a convenient pack of ten, making them ideal for replenishing your spares box or replacing worn fixings wherever M2.5 x 8 BHCS specification screws are required. As an authorised Team Associated retailer, RC Model Shop stocks genuine fasteners that meet the exact specifications needed for your RC hobby projects.

BHCS stands for Button Head Cap Screw, a design that features a rounded, low-profile head which sits flush or slightly proud of surfaces. This style of fastening is widely used across RC vehicles because the button head design reduces snag points and allows for cleaner, more professional assembly. The M2.5 x 8 size makes these screws suitable for a vast range of Team Associated RC models, from their popular TC and B-series platforms to numerous other applications within RC and general hobby projects. If you're a serious RC car UK enthusiast or weekend basher, keeping spare fasteners on hand ensures you can make quick repairs and get back to racing or bashing without lengthy downtime.

These genuine Team Associated screws (part number AS31521) represent excellent value for money and are the straightforward solution when you need to replace damaged fixings or build up your spare parts collection. Unlike generic fasteners, using the correct OEM specification ensures perfect fitment and compatibility with your RC models.

Technical Performance

Team Associated M2.5 x 8 BHCS screws are manufactured to exacting standards using materials and specifications that meet the demands of competitive and recreational RC use. The metric M2.5 diameter and 8mm length combination is precisely calculated to provide secure fastening across numerous assembly points on RC vehicles without over-threading or creating assembly problems. The button head cap screw design distributes clamping force more evenly than standard pan head or socket head alternatives, which is particularly important in RC applications where repeated impacts, vibrations and directional forces are commonplace. The BHCS designation ensures the screws feature the correct head profile, socket size and thread pitch to work harmoniously with Team Associated chassis designs and suspension components. Whether you're building an RC short course truck, competition buggy, crawler or general hobby model, having genuine metric fasteners of the correct specification prevents compatibility issues and ensures your RC car builds remain reliable and safe during operation. The metric specification makes these screws equally suitable for non-RC hobby projects that require standard M2.5 x 8 fasteners.
