Axial SCX10 III RC crawler chassis screw size

M2 · 6 to 14 mm long

The screws used on Axial SCX10 III RC crawler chassis are M2 in lengths from 6 to 14 mm.

It is listed for stock hardware set includes M2x6, M2x8 and M2x14 socket cap screws.

Head and drive, as the source states them: socket cap head and Hex socket (Allen) drive.

This entry is marked confirmed and comes from applianceelectronics.co.uk.

An M2 screw is 2 mm in diameter with a 0.4 mm pitch, tapped with a 1.6 mm drill; imperial look-alike: #2-56 UNC (2.18 mm) is close but not interchangeable.

How to check the screw before you buy

  1. Vibration loosens small screws on drones and RC models, so builders commonly add a drop of medium (blue) threadlocker on metal-to-metal joints — never on plastic.
  2. Diameter: across the threads an M2 screw measures about 2 mm with calipers (usually a hair under). If yours measures noticeably more or less, it is a different thread.
  3. Pitch: 0.4 mm from one thread crest to the next (25 crests per centimetre). A thread pitch gauge or the pitch-gauge tool settles it in seconds.
  4. Length: for socket cap screws, measure from under the head to the tip (countersunk heads are the exception: they are measured overall).
  5. The records span 6–14 mm, which means different positions take different lengths — match each hole to its own screw.
  6. Driver: the source names a Hex socket (Allen) drive. For comparison, standard M2 heads take PH0 (Phillips) or T6 (Torx), or a 1.5 mm hex key.
  7. Tightening: no device-specific torque is published in these records. The site's general figure for M2 is about 25-40 N·cm into metal threads and 12-20 N·cm into plastic bosses; snug it up and stop.

Common mix-ups with M2

  • Xbox Series X internal chassis screws are M3, not M2 (confirmed on iFixit) — a widespread misconception.
  • M2 (2.00mm, 0.4mm pitch) is NOT the same as #2-56 UNC (2.18mm) — close enough to cross-thread and strip if forced.

Questions about Axial SCX10 III RC crawler chassis screws

What size screw does Axial SCX10 III RC crawler chassis use?
M2 × 6–14 mm for stock hardware set includes M2x6, M2x8 and M2x14 socket cap screws.
How long are the screws in Axial SCX10 III RC crawler chassis?
The records range from 6 to 14 mm depending on the position, so match each screw to its own hole.
What is the thread pitch of an M2 screw?
0.4 mm (coarse), which is the standard pitch for M2 machine screws; a 0.25 mm fine pitch exists but is uncommon. The tap drill is 1.6 mm and the normal clearance hole is 2.4 mm.
What screwdriver do I need for Axial SCX10 III RC crawler chassis?
The source lists a Hex socket (Allen) drive. Standard M2 heads otherwise take PH0 (Phillips) or T6 (Torx), or a 1.5 mm hex key.
Can I use an imperial screw instead of M2?
No. Imperial look-alike: #2-56 UNC (2.18 mm) is close but not interchangeable. Use a true M2 screw so it does not cross-thread or strip the hole.
Where can I buy replacement screws for Axial SCX10 III RC crawler chassis?
TechSpareWarehouse (our own store) lists M2 x 6mm and M2 x 8mm, which match lengths in the records above.
