RACEOPT RO-ABH3X8T-S Lightweight Fastening Kit

For enthusiasts who care about trimming grams while keeping parts secure, the RACEOPT RO-ABH3X8T-S screw set is a straightforward option. Constructed from 7075 aluminium, the fasteners aim to combine toughness with low mass for everyday RC use.

Applications Around Your Model

Included are eight 3x8mm round head screws with a silver finish, suitable for attaching body panels, electronics holders and other non-structural parts. The finish adds corrosion resistance and keeps hardware looking smart after use. These screws are a good pick for routine maintenance and light upgrades.

Strength and Weight Considerations

7075 aluminium brings a favourable strength-to-weight profile compared with softer alloys, which helps preserve handling and responsiveness. Use these screws when you want secure joints but want to avoid unnecessary weight additions.

Most common hobby drivers will fit the head type, but always check the head profile before applying high torque to avoid cam-out.
Galvanic corrosion is possible when dissimilar metals contact in wet environments. Using protective coatings or isolating washers can reduce risk.
They can, but mounting into foam benefits from reinforcement such as small washers or backing plates to prevent pull-through.
Stop using it and replace with a new 3x8mm screw. For removal of rounded heads, use extractor tools designed for hobby screws.
A light-medium strength threadlocker can help prevent loosening in high-vibration locations; choose a removable grade for serviceability.
