M4WD-18/BK M2 button-head screw in black for Mini 4WD use

This M2 x 5 socket button screw is intended as a direct style replacement for Mini 4WD mounting points that call for a button-head fastener. It is suitable for small attachments where a rounded low-profile head is preferred, and the black finish helps minimise light-reflective spots on exposed fittings.

Builders should confirm thread diameter and required length before fitting. The socket button head is driven with a small hex key and gives a neater look than exposed bright metal heads. Ensure the 5 mm length clears internal parts and that the post or nut thread matches M2.

Will the M4WD-18/BK fastener work with stock Mini 4WD posts?

Compatibility depends on whether the existing post or nut is an M2 thread and whether 5 mm is the right length. Measure or test-fit where possible before committing.

What size hex key fits the head?

A micro hex/Allen key sized for M2 socket screws is standard. Use the correct key to prevent damage to the head.

Can I use these on thin lexan or painted bodies?

Care is advised with thin or painted surfaces. Consider clearance holes, washers, or captive nuts to avoid cracking or chipping the paint.

Is the black finish just cosmetic?

The black finish is noted as the visible characteristic; detailed protective properties are not specified. Regular inspection is recommended if parts see damp conditions.

Typical uses for this screw?

Common applications include securing body posts, accessories, and small bracket fittings where an M2 x 5 button head is suitable. Verify head clearance first.

How should I replace existing screws safely?

Confirm thread match and length, use the correct hex key, and avoid over-torquing. For reused plastic threads consider a minimal threadlocker or a small washer to reduce stress.
