These precision-engineered fasteners are specifically designed to secure the battery tray on a range of Team Associated buggies, ensuring your power source remains firmly mounted during competitive racing or recreational bashing.

As an authorised dealer of Team Associated products, RC Model Shop stocks genuine OEM parts including these battery tray shoulder screws. These fasteners are not generic replacements—they are the exact components specified by Team Associated for the B6, B6D, B6.1, B6.1D and related models. If your buggy's battery tray fixings have become worn, stripped, or gone missing through normal use, these shoulder screws are the perfect maintenance solution to restore your buggy to factory specification and ensure reliable performance every time you take to the track.
Spare parts like these shoulder screws represent smart investment in your RC hobby. Rather than replacing entire assemblies or purchasing a new buggy, keeping a stock of genuine OEM spares allows you to maintain your buggy cost-effectively and extend its competitive lifespan. This is particularly important for serious racers and regular bashers who put their equipment through intensive use and need to know their buggies are fitted with the correct, reliable components.

Technical Performance
These shoulder screws represent the precision engineering that Team Associated is renowned for throughout the RC buggy racing community. The shoulder screw design is critical for battery tray assembly, as it provides both proper alignment and consistent clamping force without damaging the plastic tray components. Unlike standard machine screws, shoulder screws feature a cylindrical shoulder that maintains a precise distance between components, preventing the common problem of over-tightening that can strip threads or crack plastic mounting points. The fasteners are manufactured to exacting tolerances to ensure they work perfectly with the corresponding threaded inserts moulded into the B6-series battery tray assembly. Whether you're running a stock buggy at your local RC club or competing in formal race meetings across the UK, having the correct OEM fasteners ensures your battery tray remains secure throughout practice sessions, heats and finals. The shoulder screw format also makes installation straightforward—simply align the tray, insert the screws and tighten to the appropriate torque specified in your buggy's manual. This is precision engineering at its finest, designed specifically for the demands of competitive RC buggy racing where reliability and proper assembly are non-negotiable.
