• High-Grade Steel Construction — Manufactured from premium high-grade steel, these bolts provide exceptional durability and structural integrity, ensuring they maintain their appearance and function through countless hours of RC use and handling.
• Durable Silver Finish — The professional silver finish is applied to resist tarnishing and maintain its metallic appearance over time, keeping your scale builds looking fresh and authentic long after assembly.
• M1.6 x 4mm Specification — This precise metric sizing ensures compatibility with RC4WD scale components and other miniature scale parts, allowing seamless integration into your detailed builds.
• Pack of 20 Bolts — Each purchase includes 20 individual bolts, providing excellent value and giving you sufficient fasteners for multiple projects or comprehensive detailing across your entire RC collection.
• Scale-Authentic Proportions — These bolts are engineered with proportions that translate perfectly to scale, meaning they look correct and realistic on your models rather than appearing oversized or out of place.

Technical Performance

The RC4WD Miniature Scale Hex Bolts exemplify precision engineering applied to RC scale modelling. Specified at M1.6 x 4mm, these bolts occupy a critical niche in scale RC building where authentic hardware detail can make the difference between a good model and a genuinely impressive one. The high-grade steel construction means these aren't cosmetic-only fasteners—they're capable of genuine functional use whilst maintaining their scaled appearance. The durable silver finish is a crucial design consideration, as it resists the oxidation and discolouration that would quickly make lesser-quality fasteners look shabby and out of place on a detailed scale model. At just 2g per bolt (0.1oz), they add minimal weight to your builds, making them ideal for detailed scale crawlers where every gram matters for performance. The combined weight of all 20 bolts is just 3g, demonstrating how thoughtfully these components are engineered for scale RC applications. When installed in RC4WD scale components like the Billet Aluminium Fuel Cell Radio Box, these bolts complete the authentic appearance that serious RC builders demand. For UK RC enthusiasts building detailed scale trucks and crawlers, these bolts represent the standard-setting solution for authentic hardware detailing that's been refined through years of real-world RC use.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these scale hex bolts suitable for functional use or just appearance? — The RC4WD Miniature Scale Hex Bolts are manufactured from high-grade steel and are capable of genuine functional use, though many builders use them primarily for authentic scale detailing on display models and active crawlers alike. Their durability means they can handle real fastening applications where scale requirements permit their use.
• What makes these bolts different from generic miniature bolts? — These are specifically engineered for R/C scale applications, meaning their proportions, finish quality, and overall design have been refined specifically for how they appear and function on detailed scale models. The durable silver finish and high-grade steel construction set them apart from standard industrial fasteners that might look oversized or inappropriate on carefully scaled builds.
• Can I install these bolts by hand or do I need specialist tools? — Whilst you could potentially hand-tighten these bolts for cosmetic purposes, RC4WD recommends using the Miniature Scale Hex Bolt Tool (1.5mm Hex, part number Z-S1328) for proper installation and adjustment. This specialist tool ensures you can tighten and adjust the bolts without stripping the tiny hex heads or damaging the fasteners.
• How many bolts are included and will they be enough for my project? — Each pack includes 20 individual bolts, providing excellent quantity for detailed scale builds. One pack is typically sufficient for multiple smaller detail projects, though larger builds or those requiring extensive hardware detailing might benefit from purchasing multiple packs to ensure you have adequate fasteners throughout your model.
• What scale are these bolts appropriate for? — These M1.6 x 4mm bolts are versatile across various scale RC models, working particularly well on 1/10 scale and larger models where the bolt proportions appear correctly scaled. They've been proven across numerous RC4WD builds including scale crawlers, detailed scale trucks, and precision RC models where authentic hardware detail is a priority.
• Will the silver finish tarnish or discolour over time? — The durable silver finish applied by RC4WD is specifically engineered to resist tarnishing and maintain its appearance through normal RC use and handling. Whilst exposure to extreme moisture or harsh conditions might eventually affect any metal finish, these bolts are designed to maintain their appearance across extended periods of typical RC activity.
• Are these bolts compatible with non-RC4WD components? — The M1.6 x 4mm specification means these bolts will work with any components designed to accept this standard metric fastener size. However, they've been specifically engineered and tested with RC4WD products, so compatibility is guaranteed with RC4WD scale components whilst use with other manufacturers' parts depends on those products' fastener specifications.
