For RC hobbyists needing dependable fasteners, the Tamiya 53024 4mm Aluminum Flanged Lock Nut provides a strong yet lightweight option. Made from aluminum, this nut helps keep components firmly attached during high-speed use and on rough terrain. The flange gives extra bearing area to help stop loosening under vibration.
A flanged lock nut spreads clamping force across a wider surface so thin plastics and sheet metal are less likely to deform. The locking action reduces the chance of the nut backing off from shocks and constant vibration, which is important for wheels, suspension arms and linkages.
This 4mm nut fits many common RC assemblies and is a handy spare for 1/10 scale and similar vehicles. Keep a few in your toolkit for routine servicing, part swaps and on-track repairs.
