Button Head Machine Screw

Button Head Machine Screw

ASTM F835 button head machine screws have machine threads, a button-type head and hexagon recess. The ASTM F835 specification covers the requirements for quenched and tempered alloy steel hexagon socket button head cap screws having material properties for high-strength requirements. Dimensional specifications are governed by ASME B18.3. Hex Button socket head cap screws are designed for light duty applications such as securing guards, covers, and ornamental fixtures. Button Heads present a pleasing appearance to an assembly.

Governing StandardsAlloy Steel Button Head Machine Screw

ASTM F835 This specification covers the requirements for quenched and tempered alloy steel hexagon socket button (SBHCS) 0.060 through 0.625 thread sizes and flat countersunk (SFHCS) 0.060 through 1.5 thread sizes head cap screws having material properties for high-strength requirements.
ASME B18.3 Covers the complete general and dimensional data for various types of hexagon socket cap screws, shoulder screws, set screws, and hexagon keys recognized as an American National Standard.
ASME B1.1 UNC & UNF Class 2A Specifies the thread form, series, class, allowance, tolerance, and designation for unified screw threads.
