Key Features
- M3 Thread Size — The M3 metric thread size is the standard specification for Element RC vehicles, ensuring perfect compatibility with your RC model truck's existing fasteners and maintained structural integrity.
- 10mm Length — The precise 10mm length is engineered to work with specific mounting points on Element RC trail trucks, preventing over-tightening or under-tightening that could compromise your RC vehicle's performance.
- Low Profile Socket Head Cap Design — The low profile SHCS (Socket Head Cap Screw) design sits flush against your RC model's components, providing a clean aesthetic whilst maintaining secure fastening that won't snag on suspension or body parts during off-road bashing.
- Hex Driver Compatible — Each screw features a hex socket head that works with standard hex key (Allen key) tools, allowing you to quickly service your RC truck without needing specialist equipment in your RC workshop.
- Washer Head — The integrated washer head distributes load more evenly across mounting surfaces on your RC vehicle, preventing screw head pull-through and extending the lifespan of your RC model's components.
- Black Finish — The black coloured finish provides corrosion resistance and a professional look that matches the high-quality aesthetic of modern ready to run RC trail trucks.
- Pack of 10 — With ten screws included, you'll have spares for multiple repairs, upgrades, or complete reassembly of your RC vehicle's components without running out mid-maintenance.
- Machine Thread Specification — The machine thread type ensures precise engagement and reliable fastening on your Element RC model, maintaining the structural integrity your RC truck needs for serious off-road bashing.
Technical Performance
These Element RC M3x10mm low profile socket head cap screws represent precision engineering designed specifically for the demands of off-road RC vehicles. The M3 metric threading ensures compatibility with Element RC Enduro trail trucks and related models in the Element RC lineup. The 10mm length specification has been precisely calculated to work with the mounting geometry of Element RC vehicles, ensuring that your RC truck maintains its structural integrity during rugged terrain use. The washer head design is particularly important for RC vehicles, which experience constant vibration and impact during off-road driving — the washer distributes fastening force evenly across mounting surfaces, preventing the screw head from sinking into plastic or composite materials common in RC truck construction. The hex socket head design allows for quick tool-free-style fastening using standard 2.0mm or 2.5mm hex keys, making field maintenance and repairs straightforward for RC enthusiasts. The black finish provides enhanced durability and corrosion resistance, important for RC vehicles that may be used in wet conditions or exposed to moisture during water crossing operations. These screws are ideal for replacement during routine maintenance of your ready to run RC model, during suspension setup changes, or when upgrading components on your Element RC trail truck.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What Element RC models are these screws compatible with? — These M3x10mm low profile SHCS screws are compatible with the Element RC Enduro Ecto Trail Truck RTR in Black (EL40122), Element RC Enduro Ecto Trail Truck RTR in Grey with Portal Axles (EL40130), Element RC Enduro Ecto Trail Truck RTR in Green (EL40117), Element RC Enduro Trail Truck Zuul in Tan RTR (EL40124), and the Element RC Enduro Trail Truck Knightrunner RTR in Blue (EL40115). Check your vehicle's documentation to confirm compatibility before ordering.
- How many screws come in this pack? — This pack contains 10 M3x10mm low profile socket head cap screws, providing multiple spares for repairs, maintenance, or complete reassembly of your RC vehicle without running out.
- What size hex key do I need for these screws? — The M3x10mm socket head cap screws feature a hex socket head designed to work with standard hex keys. You'll typically need a 2.0mm or 2.5mm hex key, though your specific RC model's documentation should confirm the exact size.
- Are these screws suitable for beginners? — Yes, these replacement screws are ideal for RC hobbyists at any level. Whether you're a beginner learning to maintain your first ready to run RC truck or an experienced RC enthusiast, having quality spare fasteners is essential for keeping your model in excellent condition.
- What is the difference between socket head cap screws and other screw types? — Socket head cap screws (SHCS) feature a hex socket in the head rather than a slot or Phillips head, allowing for more precise torque control and less likelihood of stripping the head. The low profile design on these screws means they sit lower than standard SHCS, providing a cleaner look and preventing snagging on moving parts or obstacles during RC off-road driving.
- Why are these considered low profile? — The low profile design refers to the height of the socket head above the fastened surface. This specification is important for RC vehicles where space is limited and you need fasteners that won't protrude and catch on terrain, obstacles, or moving suspension components during trail driving.
- Can I use these screws on other RC vehicle brands? — These screws are specifically engineered for Element RC vehicles. Whilst the M3x10mm specification is standard across many RC brands, we recommend confirming compatibility with your specific vehicle model before purchasing. Always consult your RC truck's manual for approved parts.
