6-32 x 1/4 18-8 Stainless Steel Button Head Socket Cap Screw with Nylon Insert adds a nylon prevailing-torque element to a button head socket cap screw format. The locking pellet adds a prevailing-torque feature while the internal hex drive keeps installation compact from the top side.
The rounded button head can reduce exposed edges, spread bearing load over a broader face, and avoid counterbore machining when the assembly accepts a raised dome. Typical applications include retrofit vibrating guards, replacement covers, and maintenance panels, where exposed hardware benefits from a smooth dome and exact thread-length match.
Slight magnetism from cold working can be normal for 18-8 stainless, so final selection should reflect the mating parts and environmental exposure. If strength matters more than stainless material, Alloy Steel Button Head Socket Cap Screws with Nylon Insert may be the better route. Cold Headers has supplied specialty socket fasteners since 1962 and helps buyers source exact stainless sizes and uncommon lengths.
