Key Features
- Self-Tapping Design — The self-tapping thread pattern allows these screws to create their own thread path when installed, making them ideal for securing components without requiring pre-drilled holes or threading, saving time and effort during assembly and repairs.
- Hex Drive Head — The cap-head design with hex socket drive provides superior grip and control when tightening or loosening, preventing the screw head from slipping or stripping, which is critical when working on precision RC vehicles where screw damage can compromise your model.
- M2 Size Specification — The M2 (2mm) diameter is specifically engineered for Traxxas applications, ensuring perfect fitment with factory holes and components, eliminating the need for modification or workaround solutions.
- 10mm Length — The 10mm length is precisely measured to secure mounting points without over-penetrating or causing interference with internal components, a critical specification for maintaining your RC vehicle's structural integrity.
- Machine Thread Type — These are true machine screws with a consistent thread profile, offering reliable holding power and repeatability across multiple installations, essential for maintaining a well-functioning RC car or RC crawler.
- Black Colour Finish — The black finish provides a professional appearance whilst offering slight corrosion resistance, keeping your RC vehicle looking clean and maintained even after multiple repair sessions.
- Genuine Traxxas Component — As an authentic Traxxas part, these screws are manufactured to exact factory specifications, ensuring compatibility and reliability with all compatible Traxxas models listed below.
- 10-Piece Pack Quantity — The generous 10-pack ensures you have multiple fasteners available for repairs, replacements, and future projects, making this an economical and practical addition to your RC tool collection.
Technical Performance
These self-tapping screws are engineered with precision manufacturing standards that reflect Traxxas's commitment to quality in the RC hobby. The M2x10mm specification has been carefully calculated to work with the factory-drilled holes and assembly points found on compatible Traxxas models, particularly the TRX-4 platform which includes the 2021 Ford Bronco variants and Defender 4WD models. The self-tapping nature of these fasteners means they excel at creating secure threads in plastic and composite materials commonly used in RC vehicle chassis and body work. The hex drive design, in contrast to traditional slotted or Phillips head screws, distributes load more evenly across the screw head, reducing the risk of stripping that commonly occurs with lower-quality fasteners. The cap-head design also provides superior clearance in tight spaces where tool access is limited, a real-world advantage when working on complex assemblies. The black finish not only provides aesthetic consistency with Traxxas's factory colour scheme but also helps protect the steel material from oxidation during storage. For RC enthusiasts in the UK performing maintenance on their brushless RC cars or preparing their vehicles for competition, these screws represent the gold standard in replacement fasteners.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What Traxxas RC models are these screws compatible with? — These TRX8167 screws are specifically compatible with the Traxxas TRX-4 2021 Ford Bronco 1/10 crawler range (including orange, black, red, and white colour variants) and the Traxxas TRX-4 Defender 4WD RTR models (available in green, sand, red, and silver colours). However, many other Traxxas models featuring similar assembly points may also benefit from having spare M2x10mm fasteners on hand for maintenance and repairs.
- Are these screws self-tapping or do I need to pre-tap the hole? — These are genuine self-tapping screws, which means they will create their own thread path when installed into the correct-sized hole. You do not need to pre-tap or pre-thread the holes; simply align the screw and drive it with a 1.5mm hex key (or appropriately sized hex driver), and the screw will cut its own threads as it enters the material.
- What size hex key do I need to install these screws? — These screws feature a hex drive cap head, and whilst the exact hex key size is not specified in the manufacturer documentation, M2 cap-head screws typically utilise a 1.5mm hex key. We recommend checking your existing Traxxas fasteners or consulting the assembly manual for your specific model to confirm the correct tool size.
- Why would I need replacement screws for my RC vehicle? — During regular maintenance, repair work, customisation projects, or accidental damage, screws can become stripped, lost, or damaged. Having a pack of genuine Traxxas replacement screws ensures you can complete repairs quickly without needing to source parts from multiple suppliers. Additionally, when upgrading or modifying components on your RC car UK model, you may need extra fasteners for mounting new upgrades.
- Is this pack suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. Beginners who are learning to maintain their ready to run RC models will find this pack invaluable. Self-tapping screws are user-friendly as they don't require pre-drilling or threading knowledge, and the hex drive design makes them easier to work with than traditional screw heads. Having spare fasteners on hand builds confidence when undertaking your first repairs.
- How do these self-tapping screws compare to standard machine screws? — Self-tapping screws create their own thread path, making installation faster and more forgiving if you're working without precision guidance. Standard machine screws typically require pre-drilled holes with matching threads. For RC applications where hole sizes are already factory-drilled, self-tapping screws offer convenience and reliability without additional preparation steps.
- What is the EAN code for this product? — The European Article Number (EAN) for the Traxxas Screws TRX8167 is 20334816702, which you can use for ordering, cataloguing, or reference purposes.
