What Are Button Head Bolts?
A button head bolt is a type of fastener known for its rounded, low-profile head. Unlike traditional bolts, which have a hex or flat head, these bolts provide a smooth, aesthetically pleasing finish. In addition, it also maintains its strong grip and durability.
These bolts are often used in applications where clearance is limited, and a low-profile, high-strength fastener is required.
So why should you choose our bolts?
They are designed to balance strength with functionality. Their primary advantages include:
-
Enhanced Aesthetics:The rounded head gives a clean and polished look. Thus it makes them ideal for visible installations.
-
Increased Safety:The smooth surface minimizes the risk of snagging or injury compared to sharp-edged fasteners.
-
Superior Load Distribution:The broad surface area allows even distribution of force, reducing stress on the materials they secure
-
Compact and Space-Saving:With a lower profile compared to hex bolts, they fit better in tight spaces without compromising strength.
Understanding Hex Socket Button Head Cap Screws
One of the most reliable and commonly used variations is the hex socket button head cap screw. This type of fastener features a recessed hexagonal drive, which allows for high torque application without damaging the surrounding surface. The internal hex drive also provides better grip, reducing the likelihood of stripping or rounding during installation.
At Modular1, we offer hex socket button head cap screws that meet industry standards and deliver high tensile strength. This makes them perfect for demanding applications such as:
Machinery Assembly
Automotive Engineering
Aerospace Components
Furniture and Fixtures
