Technical Performance
The Team Associated M2x8mm SHCS fasteners represent precision engineering at the component level. These socket head cap screws are manufactured to exacting tolerances, ensuring consistent fitment across all compatible Team Associated platforms. The M2 thread specification (2mm diameter with a standard metric thread pitch) has become an industry standard in RC vehicle design, and the 8mm length provides optimal engagement and holding power for the mounting points found throughout modern Team Associated chassis. The SHCS design offers several practical advantages over traditional fasteners: the hexagonal socket accommodates precision hex key tools for controlled tightening without risk of rounding or stripping, the head sits flush against mounting surfaces when properly torqued, and the high-quality steel construction resists corrosion and fatigue from repeated assembly and disassembly cycles. For RC enthusiasts engaged in regular maintenance, component upgrades, or who frequently need to access internal mechanisms on their vehicles, having quality M2x8mm fasteners in stock is simply essential. These screws are suitable for use across the full range of compatible platforms including the popular Apex2, Apex2 Sport variants, CR12, Element Enduro series (Sendero, Trailwalker, Trailrunner, Gatekeeper, Knightrunner, Bushido, Ecto, Utron SE, Zuul and Zuul IFS2), MT12 Monster Truck, ProRally, RC10F6, and RC12R6 models, demonstrating their broad utility across Team Associated's product range.
