Ask Rob:  What Screws Do I Need?

5/9/2018

 
Redcat Rampage Instruction Manual
Quintus sent me an email last night asking for the part number for the screws that hold the engine in place on his Rampage MT

I'm pretty sure what he is looking for is 50092 5 x 25mm Flat Head Screws or possibly 50022 Engine Screws and Mounts

If you are wondering what part number you need for your Rampage, don't forget that all instruction manuals / parts lists are available under Support > Instruction Manuals.

Understanding Screw Dimensions

If the instruction manual doesn't help, or you are trying to do a custom build of some kind, here's a quick tip on measuring screws. By the way, all Rampages use metric hardware

How to Measure Length

When measuring the length of screws, measure from the surface of the material where the fastener will be to the end of the fastener.  

Flat Head Screw Length:  For example, if you are measuring a screw that is on the bottom of the chassis, it is likely a flat head / counter sunk screw. In this case, you would measure from the surface of the chassis, to the tip of the screw.  Or, just remember to measure the entire length of flat head screws like the image above.

Button Head Screw Length:  Some of the screws on your Rampage may be button head or cap head screws like the image on the upper right.  In this case, you would measure from the under side of the head (this is where the surface of the material will contact the screw) to the tip of the fastener.

How to Measure Diameter

Screw Diameter:  The diameter of a screw or bolt is determined by measuring across the threaded portion of the screw.  It is NOT determined by the size of wrench required to turn the screw or bolt.  

Hex Nut Diameter:  A hex nut is measured by the size of the hole in the center of the nut, NOT by the size of the wrench used to turn the nut.

Washers:  Washers have an inner and an outer measurement.  For example, part number 07177 m6 x 16 flat washers have a 6mm inner hole and a 16mm outer diameter
