RC Fasteners (Screws) What Would YOU Like To See

[David F]

Guys, so i am going to reach out to the majority on this website

What are some Sizes/Screw Types/ Finishes you might like to see more readily available ?


I am working on the TORX head Stainless Screws now

[EverettY]

I'd like to see more M2 screws... I have trouble finding them without have to buy in bulk... and than it get's expensive... but if you offered like a kit with like M2 and M3 stuff that would be great! Also another thing is an Aluminum Hardware kit would be great too! And maybe if you offered an Aluminum kit if you could offer M3x25mm Titanium screws with it as well that would be cool... Just my $.02

Cool... I'd say instead of selling them with like 100 of each just do like 25 or 10 of each since people don't use like a ton... And can you do some flat head and some button head? Also how about some M2 nuts....

[johnnyh66]

M3 Scale "lug nuts"!

[TrailDawg362]

How about some hardware alternatives for the ever-popular Axial beadlocks? Replacement kits or maybe something shiney? I don't know the size offhand.

Also, what johnnyh66 said!

Torx?!? Who requested those? After owning a jeep for quite a number of years, I have grown to HATE torx.

Have had a couple requests for it which surprised me as well.

We are bringing in a small order of them now, in a more limited size range.

If they sell then we will look at continuing to carry them. I'm not investing a bunch right of that bat on something that niche.

Interesting...

Screws with some hardness to them so that my driver does not round out the hex drive after r-r twice. And I am using a quality driver, it will hold a new screw firmly.

Grab the steel screw set we offer.

Also what about kits for different vehicles... like lots of people are doing Aluminum for there comp crawlers so what about like an Aluminum screw kit for like the XR10?

It may look like lots of people are doing it but in reality it is a pretty small number of people. We need to sell 100+ kits of something to really make something feasible and there likely isn't the numbers to support that.

Vehicle kits are nice but I would MUCH rather have a large assortment of screws so I didn't have to order screws for every truck I built. Plus look at the price of vehicle kits, they are the same or more for less than half the number of screws.

I would be a fan of an assortment pack of aluminum screws for a good price. I do want to swap out for aluminum but right now it seems a little too pricey.

It will take quite a bit of interest in aluminum before we can justify bringing in a batch.

What type of range? And what type of kit.
Definitely interested in these.

probably in the minority (i may be the only one...lol) but maybe a good "shoulder" screw assortment...i've had a few times when i needed a shoulder screw for a custom build, but didnt have any of the size i needed...

[Nabil]

Green aluminum button head and countersunk screws up to 25 or 30mm long

I found some M2 x 8 stainless hex head bolts I used on my 40 series axial wheels after I narrowed them. they are much easier to use than the stock cap screws which tend to round out.
