Performance Oriented 7075 Aluminium Fasteners

For tuners and weekend racers wanting dependable fixings, the RACEOPT 3x8mm screws deliver a blend of strength and low weight. The 7075 aluminium construction is chosen to keep parts secure without burdening the model.

Best Applications in RC

These 3x8mm flat head screws are ideal for mounting electronics, fixing body mounts and securing lightweight brackets. The flanged head helps maintain clamping force under vibration and the orange finish makes them easy to locate in a pit bag.

Main Benefits

  • 7075 aluminium gives a high strength-to-weight compromise.
  • Flat head with flange for a neat, secure fit.
  • Lightweight to avoid compromising acceleration and handling.
  • Supplied as a set of 8 screws, handy for spares and repairs.

Are the heads compatible with standard countersunk holes?

The flat head with flange sits well in shallow countersinks and on flat surfaces; check seat depth on your component to ensure flush installation.

Can I use these for servo mounts?

They work for many low-load servo mount points, but for high-torque servos consider retaining steel hardware where extra robustness is needed.

How should I maintain these aluminium fasteners?

Keep them clean and dry after wet runs, avoid over-tightening and inspect heads and threads periodically for damage before reuse.

Will the orange finish wear off?

Some wear is possible with frequent removal and use; the bright colour is mainly for identification and aesthetics rather than a protective coating.

Is thread locker recommended for these screws?

A mild thread locker can help prevent loosening under vibration, but apply sparingly and follow the locker manufacturer's guidance for aluminium parts.
