Cool Locked Up RC 4-40 Acorn nuts (for SLW style wheels)


I'm stoked to bring these to yall!

We've just updated the store with our latest scale hardware creation. 4-40 Acorn nuts that work with our SLW friendly wheels:
Scale Acorn Nuts 4-40


So if you have been putting off getting yourself a set of SLW style wheels because they were not scale enough ... here is your solution!


We are also now carrying a VERY reasonably priced "Acorn Nut Driver" that works with our M2 AND 4-40 Acorn Nuts:
Miniature Scale Acorn Nut Driver



Scale it out!!!!

These should also work for the Gearhead EZ Loc and older CAC EZ Loc that use the 4-40 hardware

I thought the older GearHead wheels used M3 hardware?

I'm pretty sure they all use the 4-40. I had an OG set of CAC's and they used 4-40 and the set of BAMF's 2.0 that I had got recently from RPP was 4-40 as well. Having four different sets over the last few years lead me to that assumption. Cory has the rights and drawings for all the CAC wheels, so I wouldn't see why he would change anything by making them under the Gearhead name.

the older CACs are definitely 4-40. thinking about picking up some of these for the delrin 2.2s i bought off you, Shon... i think they would really set these wheels off

hmmm
I have some CAC "style" wheels that take M3... but 4-40 is really close to M3 so maybe there was a mistake made when choosing the hardware.

That's weird, All the ones I've had new and old have been 4-40. Where's Cory?

Pretty sure you can talk Patrick into do M3 Acorns if isn't already in the plans.

These really set off the wheels nicely. Had to grind my tool a little to get them to tighten down with the TSS scale hubs. And unfortunately they are a no go on the VP XD wheels. :(
