18-8 Stainless Steel Button Head Socket Cap Screws

Cold Headers supplies 18-8 stainless steel button head socket cap screws in a broad range of thread sizes and lengths for general industrial fastening applications that benefit from a low-profile rounded head, internal hex drive, and corrosion-resistant stainless construction.

These fasteners are commonly used in automation equipment, packaging machinery, guards, access panels, control enclosures, conveyor systems, machine covers, brackets, fixtures, instrumentation, material-handling assemblies, and other applications where reduced head projection and a smooth exposed profile are useful. The internal hex socket provides positive tool engagement where external wrench clearance is limited.

18-8 stainless steel is commonly selected for general corrosion resistance, moisture exposure, clean appearance, and routine indoor or outdoor industrial service. It is well suited to many general-purpose assemblies, but it should not be described as marine grade or specified for severe chloride or saltwater exposure.

Our online catalog includes many commonly requested 18-8 stainless steel button head socket cap screw sizes, but it does not represent every configuration Cold Headers can supply. Additional non-catalog sizes, special lengths, and difficult-to-source items may be available by request.

Description N/A

0-80 x 1/8 18-8 Stainless Steel Button Head Socket Cap Screw is commonly specified where a low-profile rounded head and stainless construction are both needed in a general-service assembly. The button head remains above the surface and is chosen for its rounded profile rather than for a recessed installation. The internal hex drive supports socket-key installation where external wrenching space is limited.

Typical applications include guards and access panels, where the lower rounded head can reduce snag points on surfaces that are handled during maintenance. It can also serve automation equipment and conveyor assemblies, where compact head projection helps near moving parts, rails, and guarding. The rounded head profile is useful on visible or frequently handled assemblies.

Engineers may select 18-8 stainless steel for general corrosion resistance, clean appearance, and resistance to normal atmospheric exposure. For the 0-80 thread and 1/8 in. length, the reference head diameter is 0.104-0.114 in. and the head height is 0.026-0.032 in.

N/A

0-80 x 3/16 18-8 Stainless Steel Button Head Socket Cap Screw helps engineers combine reduced head projection, internal hex drive access, and 18-8 stainless steel performance in one fastener. Compared with taller cylindrical head styles, the button head offers a smoother exposed shape and lower head projection. The internal hex drive supports socket-key installation where external wrenching space is limited.

Typical applications include control enclosures and service panels, where the smooth exposed appearance is useful when hardware remains visible after assembly. It can also serve brackets, fixtures, and precision assemblies, where the broad bearing surface can help seat the head cleanly on light mounting surfaces. The rounded head profile is useful on visible or frequently handled assemblies.

The material is useful for indoor and outdoor general-service applications where routine moisture exposure is part of the design environment. For the 0-80 thread and 3/16 in. length, the reference head diameter is 0.104-0.114 in. and the head height is 0.026-0.032 in.

N/A

0-80 x 1/4 18-8 Stainless Steel Button Head Socket Cap Screw is selected when visible hardware needs a smooth rounded head and resistance to normal atmospheric exposure. The internal hex drive keeps the tool engagement inside the head, which is useful in compact assemblies. The internal hex drive supports socket-key installation where external wrenching space is limited.

Typical applications include automation equipment and conveyor assemblies, where compact head projection helps near moving parts, rails, and guarding. It can also serve guards and access panels, where the lower rounded head can reduce snag points on surfaces that are handled during maintenance. The rounded head profile is useful on visible or frequently handled assemblies.

18-8 stainless steel is commonly used in manufacturing equipment, packaging machinery, and maintenance environments where moisture may be present. For the 0-80 thread and 1/4 in. length, the reference head diameter is 0.104-0.114 in. and the head height is 0.026-0.032 in.

0-80 x 3/8 18-8 Stainless Steel Button Head Socket Cap Screw is used when a button-head profile, socket engagement, and everyday corrosion resistance are important to the design. The relatively broad head can be helpful on covers, guards, and panels where the fastener remains visible. The internal hex drive supports socket-key installation where external wrenching space is limited.

Typical applications include machine covers and equipment housings, where internal hex access supports installation where external wrench clearance is limited. It can also serve instrumentation and commercial equipment, where the stainless material provides a clean look for visible or frequently handled hardware. The rounded head profile is useful on visible or frequently handled assemblies.

The stainless construction supports high-humidity industrial service, control equipment, and general machinery without overstating the material's corrosion performance. For the 0-80 thread and 3/8 in. length, the reference head diameter is 0.104-0.114 in. and the head height is 0.026-0.032 in.
