Technical Performance

The FTX Button Head Hex Screw M2 X 6mm represents precision engineering at its finest for RC fastening applications. With an M2 thread size and 6mm length, these screws are perfectly proportioned for delicate assembly work on compact RC components where larger fasteners would be inappropriate or interfere with tight spaces. The button head profile delivers a larger contact area for hex key engagement compared to standard flat head screws, significantly reducing the risk of stripping the hex socket during installation or removal. The metric M2 sizing ensures compatibility with standard metric hex key sets (1.5mm hex key) that most RC builders and technicians already possess. These fasteners are manufactured from quality steel material, providing the strength and corrosion resistance necessary for reliable long-term performance in RC applications. Whether you're working on servo mounts, mounting brackets, chassis plates, or other precision assembly points on your FTX RC vehicles, these screws deliver the reliability and consistency that serious hobbyists demand. The standardised FTX specification means you can source replacement packs with complete confidence that they'll match original components perfectly.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What size hex key do I need for FTX Button Head Hex Screws M2 X 6mm? — These M2 button head hex screws require a 1.5mm hex key for installation and removal. This is a standard size that's included in most metric hex key sets used for RC hobby work.
• Are these screws suitable for all FTX RC models? — These screws are designed to FTX specifications and are compatible with the vast majority of FTX RC vehicles, including buggies, trucks, crawlers, and scale models. However, it's always wise to check your specific model's assembly manual or parts diagram to confirm compatibility before ordering.
• How many screws do I get in each pack? — Each pack contains 8 screws, giving you plenty of spares for multiple repairs, rebuilds, or to keep in your maintenance kit for emergency replacements during RC sessions.
• What's the difference between button head and cap head hex screws? — Button head screws feature a domed, rounded head profile that sits neatly against components with a sleek appearance, whilst cap head screws have a taller, more cylindrical head. Button heads are preferred in RC work where space is limited and appearance matters, while cap heads offer slightly more leverage and surface area.
• Can I use these screws for outdoor RC racing? — Yes, absolutely. These FTX screws are engineered for reliability in all conditions and are suitable for track racing, trail running, bashing, and competition use. The quality steel construction resists corrosion, making them durable even in damp British weather conditions.
• How do I prevent stripping the hex socket? — Always use a hex key that fits snugly in the socket without excessive wobble. Apply firm downward pressure whilst turning, and avoid over-tightening. These button head screws are less prone to stripping than many fastener types because of their larger contact area.
