3Racing M4WD-22 M2 x 12 Socket Button Screw for Mini 4WD

This M2 x 12 socket button screw from 3Racing is a straightforward replacement fastening part intended for Tamiya Mini 4WD models. Its use is limited to general joining and maintenance tasks rather than performance modification. The screw head geometry and M2 thread are compatible with common Mini 4WD components where socket button heads are specified.

Material and finish are relevant for routine maintenance and storage. Steel construction provides tensile strength compared with typical brass or aluminum alternatives, but steel may require attention to surface protection in humid environments. Builders often pair this screw with matching M2 nuts or pressed-in threaded inserts depending on the subassembly.

Installation notes for experienced hobbyists: use the correct hex driver to avoid rounding the socket, verify thread engagement length relative to panel thickness, and confirm clearance for adjacent rollers or body mounts. For repeat disassembly, consider using thin washers to protect plated surfaces; avoid suggesting drivetrain tuning or chassis upgrades since this part is a standard fastener.
