Technical Performance
The Axial M3x4x10mm Hex Socket Button Head Shoulder Screw represents the kind of precision engineering that separates genuine OEM parts from generic fasteners. Manufactured from high-quality black coated steel, these screws deliver superior durability and corrosion resistance compared to uncoated alternatives, making them ideal for the unpredictable British weather and muddy terrain that RC crawler enthusiasts encounter. The M3 metric specification provides the perfect balance of strength and weight for 1/10 scale applications, whilst the 4mm shoulder diameter ensures precise spacing in suspension linkages and drivetrain components.
