Overview
The RC4WD Button Head Cap Screws M2 x 4mm (Z-S1098) are precision metric fasteners specifically engineered for RC model assembly, repairs, and upgrades. Whether you're building a scale crawler, maintaining your RC car UK collection, or completing detailed restoration work on your RC models, these compact screws deliver the reliability and neat appearance that serious hobbyists demand. Supplied in a convenient pack of ten, they represent an essential addition to any RC enthusiast's tool kit and spares box, ensuring you always have the right fasteners on hand for your next project.
These button head cap screws are particularly valued by RC builders who prioritise clean, professional finishes on their scale projects. The distinctive button head profile not only looks purposeful and tidy in installations, but also provides excellent grip when using the correct hex key, making assembly and disassembly straightforward and stress-free. The silver finish complements modern RC designs and scale builds, whilst the M2 x 4mm dimensions make them ideal for precision work on smaller components where traditional larger fasteners would be inappropriate or unsightly.
RC Model Shop stocks these genuine RC4WD fasteners because we understand that quality components matter, whether you're a seasoned RC competitor, a weekend basher, or discovering the world of ready to run RC vehicles for the first time. These screws are versatile enough for everything from electronic enclosure assembly to body mount upgrades, making them a genuinely useful spares item that pays for itself after just a few projects.
Key Features
- Precise M2 x 4mm Metric Dimensions — The M2 diameter with 4mm length provides exact fitment for delicate RC assembly work where standard larger fasteners would damage or overwhelm small components. This precision engineering ensures reliable holding power without over-tightening.
- Button Head Cap Design — The characteristic rounded button head profile offers superior aesthetics compared to standard socket head caps, creating a cleaner appearance on visible scale installations. The design also provides excellent torque application with a hex key whilst maintaining a refined, finished look.
- Silver Finish — The polished silver coating complements modern RC chassis colours and scale project aesthetics, whilst providing a degree of corrosion resistance. This finish looks professional and maintains its appearance through regular use and cleaning.
- Pack of Ten Fasteners — Ten screws per pack means you have sufficient spares for multiple projects, repairs, or replacements without the frustration of running out mid-build. This quantity balances convenience with value for money.
- Genuine RC4WD Quality — RC4WD fasteners are manufactured to exacting standards, ensuring consistent thread quality, correct hardness specifications, and reliable performance across every single screw in the pack.
- Versatile Application — Suitable for body mounts, electronic enclosures, suspension adjustments, mounting plates, and countless other precision assembly tasks across all scales of RC vehicles and projects.
Technical Performance
These button head cap screws are manufactured to precise metric specifications that RC builders rely on for professional results. The M2 diameter with 4mm length creates ideal proportions for scale detailing and small component assembly without introducing bulk or weight penalties to your build. The material composition ensures adequate tensile strength for securing light to medium loads typical in RC applications, whilst the thread profile maintains excellent grip without stripping. Each screw in the ten-pack is produced to consistent standards, meaning you can confidently grab any fastener from the pack knowing it will perform identically to the last one you used. The silver finish provides both aesthetic appeal and a basic protective layer against oxidation, particularly useful for outdoor RC car UK use or models stored in humid conditions. The button head design specifically engineered for use with 1.5mm hex keys, a standard size in most RC tool kits, ensuring accessibility and ease of use during assembly, maintenance, and repair work. Combined weight of 0.17 ounces (2 grams) for the complete pack demonstrates these are truly lightweight fasteners suitable for weight-conscious builds where every gram matters.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these screws suitable for all RC models? — The M2 x 4mm size makes these ideal for precision work on smaller RC components, scale builds, and detailed assembly projects. They work particularly well on 1/10 and smaller scale vehicles where larger fasteners would look disproportionate or be too heavy. However, they may not be suitable for heavy-duty applications requiring larger fasteners—always verify your specific model's requirements before ordering.
- What size hex key do these button head cap screws require? — These M2 button head cap screws use a standard 1.5mm hex key (Allen key), which is a common size found in most RC tool kits and multi-tool sets. This accessibility makes installation and removal straightforward for any builder.
- Will these screws work for body mount applications? — Yes, these screws are well-suited for body mounting on smaller scale RC models where the M2 size is appropriate for the mounting points. The button head profile ensures a clean appearance through body holes, contributing to scale authenticity on detailed builds.
- How many projects can I complete with ten screws? — Ten screws provide sufficient fasteners for multiple small assemblies, repairs, or as spares for several projects. Most RC builders find this quantity invaluable as a spares pack, eliminating the need to order fresh fasteners for minor repairs or upgrades.
- Are these fasteners suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. These screws are straightforward to use with basic tools and represent an excellent investment for RC beginners building their first models or maintaining their ready to run RC vehicles. The pack of ten means mistakes won't leave you stranded mid-project.
- What applications are these screws not suitable for? — The M2 x 4mm specification makes these inappropriate for large-scale vehicles (1/5 and above) or heavy-duty suspension components requiring substantial fastening strength. For heavier applications, consult your vehicle manual for recommended fastener sizes.
