Key Features
- M2*8 Countersunk Design — These screws feature a countersunk head that sits flush below the surface of the component it fastens to, creating a streamlined profile that won't catch on obstacles or interfere with suspension travel, making them ideal for exposed mounting points on crawlers and off-road vehicles.
- Precision Engineering — Each screw is manufactured to exact tolerances to ensure consistent fit and reliable clamping force, reducing the risk of fastener failure during aggressive driving or racing conditions.
- Pack of Eight — This quantity allows for complete repairs of multiple components or full vehicle reassembly without needing to purchase additional packs, offering excellent value for RC enthusiasts who maintain their own equipment.
- FTX OEM Compatibility — These are genuine FTX spare parts designed and tested for perfect fitment on Outback models and other compatible FTX vehicles, guaranteeing reliability and eliminating guesswork about fitment.
- Durable Material Construction — Manufactured from quality materials that resist corrosion and wear, these screws maintain their integrity whether you're running on dusty terrain, through water, or in challenging weather conditions typical of UK RC driving environments.
- Essential Maintenance Component — Every RC vehicle requires regular maintenance and occasional repairs; having genuine spare fasteners ensures you can keep your rig in top condition without compromising quality or performance.
Technical Performance
The FTX Outback Countersunk Screw M2*8 represents precision fastening engineering optimised for demanding RC applications. The M2 diameter and 8mm length specification makes these screws suitable for numerous mounting applications throughout FTX Outback vehicles, from bodywork retention to internal chassis components. The countersunk head design is particularly valuable in RC applications where every millimetre of ground clearance matters and where external fastener protrusions could snag on rocks, roots, or terrain features encountered during off-road exploration. The construction utilises materials selected for strength and corrosion resistance, important characteristics when vehicles are exposed to moisture, dirt, and the rigorous environment of UK off-road terrain. These fasteners meet FTX's strict manufacturing standards, ensuring that when you're assembling or repairing your RC crawler, you're using components that match the quality and precision of the original factory build. Whether you're performing routine maintenance, replacing stripped fasteners, or undertaking a complete chassis rebuild, these screws deliver the reliability that serious RC hobbyists require. The pack of eight provides sufficient quantity for most common repair scenarios, making it a practical spare to keep in your RC toolkit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a countersunk screw and why should I use it on my RC car? — A countersunk screw has a conical head that sits flush below the surface when properly installed, rather than protruding like a standard bolt head. On RC vehicles, this is essential because protruding fasteners can catch on terrain, reduce ground clearance, or interfere with suspension movement. Countersunk screws create a clean, streamlined profile that won't damage your vehicle or get hung up on obstacles during off-road driving.
- Are these screws compatible with other FTX models besides the Outback? — These are genuine FTX Outback spares listed specifically for Outback vehicles. Whilst other FTX models may use identical M2*8 countersunk fasteners, compatibility should be verified before purchasing. RC Model Shop stock spares for the complete FTX range including Outback, Outback 2.0, Outback Fury, Outback Mini models and many others, so if you need fasteners for a different model, we can help you find the correct part.
- How many screws do I get in a pack? — This pack contains eight countersunk screws, providing sufficient quantity for most repair and maintenance tasks. If you're undertaking a complete vehicle rebuild or have multiple vehicles requiring repair, you may want to stock multiple packs.
- Where on my Outback would I use M2*8 countersunk screws? — M2*8 countersunk fasteners are used throughout FTX Outback vehicles for various mounting applications including bodywork, internal chassis components, and other structural assemblies. Consult your specific Outback model's instruction manual or parts diagram to identify exact fastening points on your vehicle.
- Are these genuine FTX parts? — Yes, these are genuine OEM FTX spare parts sourced directly from authorised distributors. Using authentic FTX fasteners ensures perfect fitment, consistent quality, and reliability. RC Model Shop only supplies genuine products from authorised manufacturers.
- Can I use standard hardware store screws instead? — Whilst generic fasteners might fit, they may not meet the precision and material specifications of genuine FTX parts, potentially affecting fitment, reliability, and vehicle performance. For the best results and peace of mind, always use genuine OEM spares designed and tested for your specific vehicle.
