Lightweight Fasteners Made from 7075 Aluminium

Model makers looking to reduce weight without sacrificing service life can rely on the RACEOPT 3x8mm screws. Crafted from 7075 aluminium, these flat head screws are tailored to common RC fastening needs.

Typical Uses on RC Models

The 3x8mm size is suited to securing trim pieces, electronics mounts and non-structural brackets. The flange under the head improves seating and helps prevent screws from working loose during running.

Product Details

Yes, they are commonly used with plastic components; take care not to overtighten into soft plastics and use washers if needed to spread the load.
They can be reused if the head and threads remain undamaged; avoid repeated heavy torque cycles which can round or wear aluminium heads.
Aluminium can corrode in salty environments if left wet; rinse and dry components after exposure and consider protective treatments for long-term coastal use.
