Overview for 3RACING M4WD-18/BK

The 3RACING M4WD-18/BK black socket button screw is an M2 x 5 fastener tailored to Tamiya Mini 4WD assemblies. It is commonly kept as a spare for board setups and minor modifications.

Why use this screw

This screw secures lightweight components without adding bulk, maintaining alignment under track stress. The black finish helps hide fasteners on darker parts and gives a neat appearance.

Where it fits and race benefits

Works with a broad range of Tamiya Mini 4WD chassis geometries for general service use.
A good hardware option for racers needing durable, repeatable fastening.
Contributes to consistent component placement which helps lap-to-lap repeatability.

Fitting advice

Use a small hex driver and avoid cross-threading. Replace any screw that shows wear to keep joints secure during competition.

Is this screw suitable for carbon fibre reinforcement plates?

Yes, it is normally fine for carbon reinforcement plates, but use care with pre-drilled holes and consider washers to spread the load.

Can I use these in combination with spacers?

They pair well with small spacers for correct clearance; choose spacers that match the M2 thread length to avoid bottoming out.

Do these require special nuts?

Standard M2 nuts or captive nuts used in Mini 4WD kits are appropriate. For vibration resistance use nylon-insert nuts or light thread locker where needed.
