Overview
Item TKR1404 is Tekno RC's M3x12mm button head screw, supplied ten to a bag in a black finish. It is the factory hardware included in the EB48, NB48, ET48 and NT48 1/8 scale kits as well as the MT410 2.0 monster truck and the SCT410, SCT410 2.0 and SCT410.3 short course trucks.
Button head screws use a low domed head with a wide bearing surface, so they clamp well on flat faces where there is no countersink. At 12mm this is one of the longer M3 button heads, used where a fastener has to reach through a part into a mount.
Key Features
- M3 x 12mm button head cap screws with a black finish
- Ten screws per bag
- Factory Tekno RC hardware, item number TKR1404
- Low-profile domed head with a broad bearing surface
- Hex drive head for use with standard metric hex drivers
- Shared across Tekno's 1/8 buggy/truggy and 1/10 truck platforms
Performance Benefits
- Correct Tekno thread size and length, so the screw does not bottom out or run short of thread
- Wide head spreads clamping load on flat, non-countersunk surfaces
- Low head height keeps clearance around arms, links and bodywork
- Fresh hex sockets grip the driver, so screws can be torqued without rounding out
Usage Notes
- Check your kit manual or exploded view for the locations that call for M3x12mm button head screws
- Start the screw by hand so the threads pick up straight through the full stack
- Use a correctly sized metric hex driver, seat it fully and tighten evenly
- Replace any screw showing a rounded socket or damaged threads
