Redcat Part 50084 is a pack of 4x12mm countersunk hex screws for select Redcat vehicles. Learn its uses, compatible models, and installation tips.
Quick answer
Redcat Part 50084 is a pack of 12 countersunk hex machine thread screws (4x12mm) used to fasten body panels, bumpers, and other components on select Redcat RAMPAGE and VALKYRIE vehicles.
Why countersunk hex screws?
Countersunk hex screws sit flush with the surface, which reduces snagging on body panels or chassis parts. The hex drive allows for a secure grip with a hex driver, minimizing cam-out compared to Phillips or flathead screws.
On RC vehicles, flush mounting is especially important for body panels and bumpers where a protruding screw head could catch on obstacles or cause cosmetic damage.
Compatible vehicle models
Redcat lists Part 50084 as a replacement part for current vehicles including RAMPAGE CHIMERA SR, RAMPAGE MT, RAMPAGE XT, VALKYRIE MT, and VALKYRIE TR. If you own one of these models, this screw pack is a direct fit for the factory mounting points.
For other Redcat vehicles, measure the existing screw length and head type. If they match 4x12mm countersunk hex, the 50084 pack will likely work, but always verify against your vehicle's parts diagram.
Frequently asked questions
- What vehicles use Redcat Part 50084?
- It is listed for RAMPAGE CHIMERA SR, RAMPAGE MT, RAMPAGE XT, VALKYRIE MT, and VALKYRIE TR. It may also fit other models if the screw size matches.
- What size are the screws in Part 50084?
- Each screw is 4mm in diameter and 12mm long, with a countersunk hex head and machine thread.
- Can I use Part 50084 for non-body panel mounting?
- Yes, the screws can be used wherever a 4x12mm countersunk hex machine screw is required, such as shock towers or chassis braces, as long as the countersunk head is appropriate. Always confirm the thread pitch matches your vehicle's threaded holes; machine threads are standard for metric hardware.
- How do I install countersunk hex screws?
- Use a 2.5mm hex driver (or the size that fits the hex recess). Apply light threadlocker to prevent loosening from vibration. Tighten to snug, avoiding over-torque that could strip the aluminum or plastic threads. Check the screw head sits flush or slightly below the surface. If it protrudes, the countersink angle may not match your part.
