I need some Philips Chassis screws for my RC10 and my JRXT....I don't care if they are OEM or Aluminum or not, I just want the functionality. Can I get these from a hardware store with the correct countersunk angle?

a little expensive but i find i always use up 50x or 100x very quick lol, i order from there every 3 months, their stainless steel screws are great

yes, its very good to work for a company that has a tool crib with a SS bolt bin out for anyone to take what they need...for work

A Little more than I needed.....but the head is a 100 degree angle? good to know...

What are the common lengths as well? I'm mainly curious on the 2 steering mount screws, as I just had some round head screws use, not the correct ones.....

not sure on lengths

i like these too, they are cheaper and they are stainless steel

has a hex head also, makes stripping them hard, unlke the aluminum counterparts, how many people out there at some point had to dremel a slot to use a flat head to get out the screw, ive done it more than once.

i tryed the stripped screw bit set from home depot, but on aluminum, it made it worse.

Oh, that's a good idea too...

I was looking at these, then thought of what size I might need:

Justto confirm, these are 100 degree heads, not 82?

Anyone?

Yes, they will work.

I ordered 50 of these....they should work for both my Losi JRXT & RC10 hopefully.....I prefer not having a Philips drive screw when possible. Thanks again for the link....

I get mine there also for the Losi cars use the 8-32 X 1/2 long they ship fast

8-32 X 1/2 is what I got.....no real hurry.....it's 35o in my garage where the buffer I need to use is at for my chassis...

try tower hobies . they have every thing from 10/32 to 4/40 .
