Quality fasteners like these are often overlooked but are absolutely vital to the longevity and reliability of your RC investment.
Key Features
- M2 x 10mm Specification — These screws feature an M2 metric thread with a 10mm length, making them perfectly sized for securing lightweight components on your FTX Outback Ranger XC crawler without excess material or risk of over-tightening.
- Button Head Design — The button head configuration provides a smooth, recessed profile that sits flush with mounting surfaces, creating a clean appearance whilst protecting the screw head from damage during off-road adventures.
- Set of 6 Pieces — This convenient pack contains six screws, providing multiple fasteners for repairs, maintenance tasks, or keeping as spares in your RC toolkit for emergency replacements during races or bashing sessions.
- FTX OEM Genuine Parts — As official FTX spare parts, these screws are manufactured to exact specifications and quality standards, ensuring perfect compatibility with your Outback Ranger XC and related FTX models.
- Essential Maintenance Component — Every RC car UK enthusiast should maintain a stock of quality replacement screws, as vibration and impact during operation can loosen or damage fasteners over time.
Technical Performance
The FTX Outback Ranger XC Button Head M2 x 10mm Screws represent a fundamental but absolutely essential component in RC vehicle maintenance. The M2 metric thread specification with 10mm overall length places these screws in the precision fastener category, suitable for securing lighter components such as body shell clips, electronic module covers, servo arm attachments, and various interior chassis bracing elements. The button head design—rather than a traditional hex head—offers distinct advantages in RC applications. The recessed profile means the screw heads sit lower and flush against mounting surfaces, reducing the risk of snagging on terrain during extreme off-road runs through rocks, mud, and brush. Button heads also provide better aerodynamic characteristics compared to protruding hex heads, a minor but worthwhile benefit on high-speed RC vehicles. The material composition of FTX OEM screws ensures they maintain their integrity through repeated tightening and loosening cycles, which is essential given that RC enthusiasts regularly service and modify their vehicles. Built quality engineering means these screws won't strip easily, maintaining their mechanical advantage and clamping force even after multiple reassembly operations during troubleshooting or modification work.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are these screws used for on the FTX Outback Ranger XC? — These M2 x 10mm button head screws are multi-purpose fasteners used throughout the FTX Outback Ranger XC to secure body panels, electronic component covers, internal chassis bracing, servo mounts, and various other lightweight structural elements. Their compact size and button head design make them ideal for areas where space is limited or where a finished appearance matters.
- Why should I buy spare screws for my RC crawler? — Vibration and impact from off-road driving naturally loosen fasteners over time, and screws can be lost during crashes or dismantling for maintenance. Keeping a spare pack of genuine FTX screws ensures you're never left stranded with missing fasteners, allowing you to quickly complete repairs and get back to enjoying your RC car UK hobby without delays.
- Are FTX button head screws better than standard hex head screws? — Button head screws offer several advantages for RC applications: they present a lower profile that doesn't snag on terrain, they provide a cleaner, more professional appearance, and the recessed design offers better protection against damage. For an RC crawler like the Outback Ranger XC that navigates tight rocky terrain, button heads are the superior choice.
- What other FTX models are compatible with these M2 x 10mm screws? — While designed for the Outback Ranger XC, these standard metric fasteners are used across multiple FTX RC models. However, to ensure perfect compatibility and fitment, we recommend checking your specific model's parts diagram or contacting our knowledgeable RC team at RC Model Shop to confirm they're the correct replacement for your particular vehicle.
- How often should I replace these screws? — FTX button head screws are built for durability and should last through years of normal operation. Replace them only when you notice stripped threads, corrosion, loss of mechanical clamping force, or physical damage from impacts. Preventative maintenance—regularly checking and re-tightening fasteners—extends their service life considerably.
