The button head design offers practical advantages over traditional fasteners, making assembly and maintenance straightforward for both experienced RC builders and those new to the hobby.

Key Features

• M3 Metric Threading — This screw uses standard M3 machine thread specifications, ensuring compatibility with the threaded inserts and holes throughout your HoBao buggy components, guaranteeing proper fit and secure fastening every time.
• 25mm Length — The 25mm length is engineered specifically for HoBao applications, providing the precise depth needed to secure multiple layers of chassis, body panels, and mechanical assemblies without excess protrusion that could interfere with moving parts.
• Button Head Design — Rather than a countersunk or hex head, this button head profile creates a low-profile, streamlined fastening point that won't catch on other components, interfere with suspension movement, or create sharp edges that might damage protective covers or hands during maintenance.
• Flat Driver Type — The flat slot driver design accepts standard flathead screwdrivers, making it easy to drive and remove using tools readily available in any RC workshop or hobby toolbox without requiring specialised socket sets.
• Black Finish — The durable black finish provides corrosion resistance and a professional appearance that matches other HoBao components, helping protect the fastener from the elements during outdoor RC racing and bashing sessions across UK terrain.
• Genuine HoBao Part — As an authentic manufacturer part number H33325, you receive genuine OEM hardware engineered to exact HoBao specifications rather than generic alternatives that may have inconsistent dimensions or inferior materials.

Technical Performance

The HoBao M3x25 Button Head Screw H33325 represents precision fastening hardware engineered to the demanding standards required by competitive 1/8 scale nitro and electric RC buggies. The M3 metric thread specification indicates a 3mm nominal diameter with precise pitch tolerances that ensure reliable engagement with the threaded components throughout your HoBao Hyper VS buggy. Whether you're working with the HoBao Hyper VS 1/8 RTR Buggy with .21 3-Port engine, the high-performance HoBao Hyper 30 Turbo variant, the brushless HBVSE electric models, or the latest HoBao Hyper VS2 1/8 nitro roller platform, this M3 fastener integrates seamlessly into the mechanical assembly. The 25mm length provides sufficient engagement depth for securing multiple material layers—whether aluminium chassis plates, composite body mounts, suspension arms, or engine bay components—whilst maintaining the compact package dimensions essential to 1/8 scale RC design. Black finish coating protects against corrosion during storage and use, whilst the button head profile minimises interference with adjacent assemblies, suspension movement, and protective covers. The flat driver design accepts standard workshop tools, eliminating the need for specialised screwdriver bits and making field maintenance practical during RC racing events or weekend bashing sessions across the UK.
