3Racing M4WD-18/PK M2 x 5 socket button screw in pink

This PDF-style replacement entry covers a single M2 x 5 socket button screw in pink from 3Racing. The item is intended as a direct fastener for Mini 4WD maintenance and appearance matching rather than as a tuning upgrade. The article treats fitment, practical handling, and visual considerations relevant to experienced hobbyists and collectors.

Fitment and typical use

The screw is sized M2 x 5 with a socket button head profile, intended for use where Tamiya Mini 4WD models require a low-profile fastener. Common applications include securing lightweight body mounts, small accessory brackets, and cosmetic panels on Super-II, MA and MS style chassis. Hobbyists use these to replace lost original screws or to maintain consistent color schemes on display builds.

Handling and installation notes

Use a compatible M2 hex driver to avoid rounding the socket. When reusing existing holes on plastic or composite parts, confirm thread engagement depth before tightening to prevent stripping. For assemblies that rely on captive nuts or threaded inserts, verify mating hardware is present; this screw is not a self-tapping fastener for thick plastic without pre-threading.

Material and finish considerations

The product listing denotes color as pink. Sellers do not always specify base material or coating; assume color is the primary distinguishing attribute. For visual consistency on display pieces, match screw head color to other visible fasteners. For structural replacements where corrosion resistance or strength are required, verify material details with the vendor before use.
