Overview
The RC4WD 6MM Silver Spacer with M3 Hole (Z-S0058) is an essential component for anyone building or upgrading RC models in the UK. Whether you're constructing a scale rock crawler, assembling a competitive off-road buggy, or simply looking to fine-tune your ready to run RC car, these precision spacers offer a professional solution for spacing components with accuracy and reliability. These CNC machined aluminium spacers are specifically designed to create clean, consistent gaps between chassis plates, motor mounts, servo mounts, and various accessories across a wide range of RC applications and scales.
Building an RC model requires attention to detail, and the quality of your hardware can make the difference between a robust, long-lasting build and one that develops issues over time. The RC4WD 6MM Silver Spacer delivers the precision engineering you need, with each spacer manufactured using CNC machining techniques to ensure absolute consistency from one piece to the next. This level of accuracy is particularly important when you're stacking multiple components or when precise spacing affects the performance of your RC vehicle, such as ensuring correct motor pinion clearance or proper suspension geometry.
This pack contains 10 spacers, giving you plenty of options for a complete build or multiple projects. The silver anodised finish not only looks professional but also provides enhanced corrosion resistance, ensuring these spacers will maintain their appearance and function even after exposure to moisture during outdoor RC sessions. Whether you're an experienced RC enthusiast looking for quality replacement parts, a competitor preparing your vehicle for the track, or a hobbyist enjoying casual weekend bashing with your RC car in the UK, the RC4WD 6MM Silver Spacer with M3 Hole is a reliable choice that you can trust.
Key Features
- CNC Machined Construction — Each spacer is manufactured using precision CNC machining equipment, which ensures that every piece in the pack meets exact dimensional tolerances, eliminating the variation you might experience with cheaper alternatives and guaranteeing perfect compatibility with your M3 hardware.
- 6mm Height with 6mm Outer Diameter — The compact 6mm tall design with matching 6mm outer diameter provides a tidy solution for spacing components without creating bulk or affecting the aesthetics of your RC build, making these spacers ideal for scale-conscious builders who want clean, proportionate assemblies.
- M3 Hardware Compatibility — The 3mm through-hole is precisely sized for M3 bolts and screws, which are among the most common fastener sizes in RC applications, ensuring seamless integration with your existing hardware and avoiding the frustration of ill-fitting components.
- Silver Anodised Finish — The professional silver anodised coating not only gives your build a polished, high-quality appearance but also provides excellent corrosion resistance, protecting the spacer from rust and oxidation during wet weather RC sessions and coastal driving conditions common across the UK.
- Pack of 10 Units — With 10 spacers included, you have more than enough for a single complete build with spares for future projects, or enough to support multiple RC vehicles, providing excellent value for money and reducing the need for frequent reordering.
- Versatile Application — These spacers are suitable for creating consistent gaps across a wide range of RC applications, from rock crawlers and trail trucks to buggies, bashers, and scale models, making them an essential part of any serious RC enthusiast's spare parts collection.
Technical Performance
The RC4WD 6MM Silver Spacer with M3 Hole represents the kind of precision engineering that separates professional-grade RC components from budget alternatives. Built using CNC machining processes, each spacer is manufactured to exacting standards that ensure dimensional accuracy and consistency across the entire pack of 10 units. The 6mm height specification is a popular dimension in RC design, particularly for creating proper spacing in suspension systems, between chassis plates, around motor mounts, and in various structural assemblies. The matching 6mm outer diameter keeps the overall profile compact, which is especially important in scale applications where oversized components would compromise the authentic appearance of your model. The 3mm through-hole is precisely drilled to accept standard M3 hardware, which includes M3 bolts, screws, and threaded inserts commonly used throughout RC vehicle construction. The silver anodised aluminium construction provides an excellent balance of weight, strength, and corrosion resistance, making these spacers suitable for use in wet conditions and harsh environments. The anodised finish is particularly valuable for UK RC enthusiasts who frequently encounter damp weather and challenging terrain. Whether you're building a competitive race machine that demands precision assembly, a high-performance off-road buggy that requires perfect geometry, or a scale model where authenticity demands accurate component spacing, these spacers deliver the quality and reliability you need for a professional result.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are these spacers used for in RC model building? — RC4WD spacers are essential for creating precise gaps between chassis components, motor mounts, servo mounts, and structural elements in your RC vehicle. They ensure proper spacing for suspension geometry, prevent interference between moving parts, maintain correct motor pinion clearance, and contribute to the overall structural integrity of your build. They're particularly valuable in competitive RC applications where millimetre-perfect assembly directly affects performance.
- Can I use these spacers on different RC vehicle types? — Yes, the RC4WD 6MM Silver Spacer with M3 Hole is designed for versatile application across a wide range of RC models, including scale crawlers, buggies, trucks, bashers, and other platforms that use M3 fasteners. Whether you're building a 1/10 scale RC buggy, a rock crawler, or any other RC car in the UK, these spacers will integrate seamlessly into your build as long as your design uses M3 hardware.
- Why choose CNC machined spacers over cheaper alternatives? — CNC machined spacers offer superior dimensional accuracy and consistency compared to stamped or injection-moulded alternatives, which can vary significantly from one piece to the next. This precision is particularly important in RC applications where tight tolerances affect suspension geometry, motor clearance, and overall handling characteristics. Investing in quality spacers ensures your build performs as designed and lasts longer.
- Are these spacers waterproof for wet weather RC sessions? — The silver anodised aluminium construction provides excellent corrosion resistance, making these spacers suitable for use in wet conditions and damp environments typical of UK RC driving locations. The anodised coating protects the aluminium from rust and oxidation, ensuring these spacers will maintain their integrity and appearance through many wet weather sessions.
- How many spacers will I need for my RC build? — The number of spacers required depends on your specific build design. Many RC models use spacers for motor mounts, suspension geometry, and structural components, requiring anywhere from 4 to 20 or more spacers per vehicle. This pack includes 10 spacers, which is enough for most single builds with spares included, or sufficient for multiple smaller projects.
- Will these spacers fit my M3 bolts and screws? — Yes, these spacers are precision-drilled with a 3mm through-hole specifically designed to accommodate standard M3 fasteners, including M3 bolts, screws, and threaded inserts. The tight tolerance ensures these components fit securely without wobbling or requiring custom modifications.
