These aluminium flanged locknuts are compatible with a wide range of RC vehicles, including popular FTX models such as the Apache 2.0 Trophy Truck, Banzai Drift Car, Bugsta Buggy, Carnage Truck series, Vantage Buggy, and many others. If you're running any of these RC vehicles or similar models that use M4 fasteners, these locknuts are the perfect spare parts solution to keep in your RC toolbox.
Key Features
- Aluminium Construction — These locknuts are machined from aluminium, which provides an excellent balance of strength and lightweight performance, ensuring your RC car remains nimble whilst maintaining structural integrity where it matters most.
- M4 Thread Size — The M4 specification means these locknuts are compatible with a broad range of RC vehicles and components, making them a versatile addition to your RC spares collection that will prove useful across multiple models.
- Flanged Design — The integrated flange provides a larger bearing surface than standard locknuts, distributing load more effectively and reducing the risk of fasteners pulling through softer materials, which is particularly valuable in RC applications where components experience constant vibration and impact.
- Locking Feature — These are locking locknuts, meaning they incorporate a mechanism to prevent accidental loosening during operation, a critical safety feature for RC vehicles that experience continuous vibration and rough terrain abuse.
- Distinctive Pink Colour — The bright pink finish makes these locknuts instantly recognisable in your spares box and adds a stylish accent to your RC build, allowing you to customise the appearance of your model whilst maintaining function.
- Pack of Four — With four locknuts included, you have sufficient fasteners for a single maintenance session or to keep as emergency spares, ensuring you're never caught short during track days or bashing sessions.
Technical Performance
The Fastrax M4 Pink Flanged Locknuts are precision-engineered components manufactured to exacting standards that RC competitors and hobbyists have come to expect. The aluminium material selection provides the optimal combination of weight savings and durability that serious RC enthusiasts demand. The M4 metric thread size is a standard specification across hundreds of RC vehicle designs, making these locknuts one of the most universally applicable spare parts you can stock. The flanged design features an expanded washer-like base that increases the contact area significantly compared to standard locknuts, which is particularly beneficial when fastening components to plastic or composite RC chassis materials where concentrated loads can cause damage. The locking mechanism ensures that even under the extreme vibration conditions experienced by RC buggies, crawlers, and off-road trucks, these fasteners will remain securely seated. The pink anodised finish is not merely cosmetic; anodising provides corrosion resistance and additional surface hardness, extending the service life of these components even when used in wet conditions or exposed to harsh terrain and mud typical of UK RC racing venues and outdoor bashing locations.

The locking feature ensures they stay secure even when your RC vehicle is exposed to water crossings or muddy terrain.
- How many locknuts do I get in one pack? — This pack contains four M4 Pink Flanged Locknuts, which is sufficient for a single maintenance session or to keep as emergency backup spares in your RC toolbox.
- What is the thread size and why does it matter? — These are M4 locknuts, which refers to the metric thread specification.
