Key Features
- M3 Thread Size — The M3 metric thread specification ensures compatibility with designated mounting points across the FTX range of RC vehicles, providing a standardised fastening solution that fits perfectly where original equipment specified it.
- 6mm Length — The 6mm length is precisely engineered to provide sufficient grip and engagement without bottoming out or protruding through your RC model's components, ensuring clean, professional-looking assembly and secure mounting.
- Flat Head Countersunk Design — The countersunk head sits flush with the surface of your RC vehicle's components, eliminating protrusions that could catch on obstacles during off-road driving or create aerodynamic drag during high-speed runs on your RC track.
- Hex Socket Drive — The hexagonal socket accepts standard hex keys and hex bit drivers, providing excellent grip and reducing the risk of stripped fasteners during installation and removal, which is essential when working on valuable RC equipment.
- Machine Thread Specification — These are machine-cut threads rather than self-tapping threads, meaning they are designed to work with pre-drilled and pre-tapped holes on FTX components, ensuring precise fit and professional results every time.
- Pack of Six — Each pack contains six individual screws, providing enough fasteners for multiple repairs or component replacements, or serving as a convenient restock for your spare parts collection.
- Black Finish — The black surface finish matches the aesthetic of FTX RC vehicles and components, maintaining the professional appearance of your model whilst providing a subtle protective coating.
Technical Performance
The FTX Flat Head Hex 6pcs M3*6 Screws represent quality engineering and precision manufacturing. Built to metric specifications (M3 x 6mm), these fasteners deliver reliable performance in demanding RC applications where vibration, impact, and continuous stress are everyday occurrences. The machine thread design means these screws are intended for use with pre-tapped holes on FTX components, eliminating guesswork and ensuring optimal grip and load distribution. The hex socket head provides superior torque transfer compared to slotted or Phillips head alternatives, reducing the likelihood of fastener slippage during installation. Whether you're assembling suspension components on your FTX Outlaw ultra-4 buggy, mounting electronics on your RC crawler, or securing body panels during routine maintenance, these screws deliver the precision and reliability that separates quality RC work from amateur repairs. The countersunk profile ensures components sit flush and secure, critical when dealing with modern composite chassis and precision-engineered RC car components. Material composition and manufacturing standards ensure these screws withstand the vibrations, temperature fluctuations, and mechanical stress inherent to off-road RC driving, whether in muddy terrain, rocky crawling courses, or desert-style high-speed circuits across the UK.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What FTX RC models are these screws compatible with? — According to the official specifications, these screws are confirmed compatible with the FTX Outlaw 1/10 4WD Ultra-4 RTR Buggy in both brushed and brushless versions (FTX5570 and FTX5571). However, as standard M3 x 6mm machine thread hex head screws, they are likely suitable for various other FTX models and RC vehicles that utilise M3 fasteners, though you should verify specific compatibility with your particular model before installation.
- Are these genuine OEM FTX parts? — Yes, these are genuine FTX factory screws manufactured to the exact specifications used in original FTX RC vehicle assembly. When you purchase from RC Model Shop as an authorised FTX retailer, you can be confident you're receiving authentic OEM components, not inferior aftermarket alternatives that could compromise your vehicle's performance or longevity.
- What tools do I need to install these screws? — The hex socket head design means you'll need a hex key or hex bit driver in the appropriate size (typically 2.0mm or 2.5mm for M3 fasteners, though your specific FTX model documentation should specify the exact requirement). A quality hex key set is an essential tool for any RC enthusiast working on vehicles in the UK.
- Can I use these screws as replacements for damaged fasteners? — Absolutely. These screws are purpose-designed as replacement parts for FTX vehicles, making them ideal for restoring your RC model after impact damage, wear, or loss of original fasteners. Having spares on hand means you're never delayed in getting back to track or field for more driving enjoyment.
- How many screws come in the pack and how many do I typically need? — Each pack contains six screws. The number you'll need depends on your specific repair or assembly project. If you're performing multiple repairs or building up a spare parts inventory (which we recommend for serious RC enthusiasts), you may want to stock multiple packs.
- What is the difference between these and the longer M3 flat head hex screws FTX offers? — FTX manufactures several variants of flat head hex screws in M3 and other sizes with different lengths (such as 8mm, 10mm, and 12mm versions). The 6mm length of the FTX6544 is specifically engineered for applications requiring shallower mounting depth, whilst longer variants are suited for different mounting scenarios. Always verify your specific application requires 6mm length before ordering.
