Key Features

• M2 Metric Thread Size — These screws are sized to M2 specifications, making them compatible with standard metric RC4WD components and other metric-threaded parts commonly found in modern RC vehicles. This standardised sizing ensures you'll have a reliable fastening solution for metric applications across your entire collection.
• 10mm Length — The 10mm length provides optimal penetration depth for secure fastening without excessive protrusion, making these screws ideal for a wide range of RC assembly and repair tasks where precision matters.
• Steel Construction — Manufactured from steel rather than cheaper alternatives, these screws offer exceptional strength and durability. Steel resists stripping, maintains consistent holding torque through repeated use, and won't deform under the vibrations and stresses inherent to RC operation.
• Socket Head Cap Design — The socket head cap profile provides a clean, professional appearance whilst offering superior torque transmission compared to slotted or Phillips head alternatives. This design is the industry standard for precision RC work and competition-grade builds.
• 1.5mm Metric Hex Driver Compatible — These screws accept a standard 1.5mm metric hex driver (allen key), which is widely available and easy to control. The precision fit of metric hex drivers prevents cam-out and ensures you won't strip the socket during installation or removal.
• Black Finish — The black anodised or electroplated finish provides both aesthetic appeal and corrosion resistance. Black fasteners blend seamlessly with modern RC4WD components and help protect against oxidation in damp storage conditions.
• Pack of 10 — Ten screws per pack give you enough fasteners for a complete rebuild or repair job with spares for future use, ensuring you're never caught short when an RC session calls for emergency maintenance.

Technical Performance

These RC4WD Steel Socket Head Cap Screws represent the pinnacle of metric fastening engineering for the RC hobby. The M2 x 10mm specification aligns with international ISO 4762 standards, ensuring compatibility with countless RC components manufactured worldwide. The steel material composition provides tensile strength far exceeding that of zinc-plated or nylon alternatives commonly found in budget fastener packs. Each screw has been precision-manufactured to maintain consistent thread pitch and socket depth, eliminating frustration during assembly and reassembly cycles. The 1.5mm hex driver socket is machined to tight tolerances, preventing the rounding-out that plagues inferior fasteners. Whether you're working on a delicate scale model where precision is everything, a high-speed track RC buggy that demands reliability under stress, or a rock-crawling 4WD scale vehicle that must never fail mid-session, these screws deliver consistent performance. The black finish provides additional protection in humid conditions often encountered during outdoor RC sessions in the UK. For modellers who refuse to compromise on quality and understand that fastening hardware is the foundation of any reliable build, these RC4WD steel socket head cap screws are non-negotiable.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these steel screws better than cheaper zinc-plated alternatives for my RC car UK build? — Yes, absolutely. Steel socket head cap screws like the RC4WD Z-S0849 offer superior tensile strength, resist stripping far better than budget fasteners, and maintain consistent holding torque through hundreds of assembly and disassembly cycles. If you're building a competition-grade or high-performance RC vehicle, steel fasteners are the only choice that won't let you down.
• Will these M2 x 10mm screws fit my RC model? — These screws are specifically designed for M2 metric threaded holes. If your RC vehicle, whether it's a brushless RC monster truck, RC buggy, or scale crawler, uses M2 metric fasteners, these will fit perfectly. Always verify your component specifications before ordering if you're unsure.
• What hex driver size do I need to install these screws? — These socket head cap screws require a 1.5mm metric hex driver (also called an allen key). RC4WD manufactures genuine 1.5mm hex drivers, and we also stock replacement tips if your driver wears out through regular use.
• Can I use these screws for outdoor RC sessions in wet British weather? — The steel construction with black finish provides good corrosion resistance, making these suitable for outdoor UK RC sessions. However, we recommend rinsing your RC model after wet conditions and allowing fasteners to dry properly. For extended water exposure, consider applying a light corrosion preventative oil to steel fasteners after cleaning.
• How many screws do I get in this pack? — You receive 10 steel socket head cap screws per pack. This quantity is ideal for a complete rebuild of many RC components, with spare fasteners left over for future maintenance.
• Are these genuine RC4WD parts? — Yes. RC Model Shop is an authorised RC4WD dealer, and we stock only genuine factory-produced parts. These screws are manufactured to RC4WD specifications and carry the same quality assurance as all RC4WD fastening solutions.
