Reliable Fixing for RC Models

Small fixings play a big role in overall durability. The Tamiya 9805754 3x8mm tapping screw is a compact, user friendly fastener that slips into prepared holes for routine assembly and repair work on models and kits.

Applications and Fit Notes

These screws are appropriate for securing trim pieces, small brackets and other light fittings across a wide range of RC vehicles. Their size and thread profile make them a practical choice where a low profile screw is required.

Practical Hints for Hobbyists

Start screws by hand to ensure threading follows the pilot hole, and avoid over-tightening which can strip plastic threads. Keep a variety of spare screws in your toolbox to swap out any that become damaged during maintenance.

Are these compatible with common RC plastics?

They work well with many common model plastics when used with an appropriate pilot hole. Thin or brittle parts should be handled with care to avoid cracking.

What should I do if a screw head is stripped?

If the head is damaged, replace the screw and avoid trying to force removal with excessive leverage. Use a fitting driver and consider a thread repair insert if the tapped hole is worn.

How should I store spare screws?

Store in labeled small parts boxes or resealable bags to keep sizes organised and prevent corrosion. Keeping them sorted by length and thread type speeds up workshop work.
