1/4-28 x 3/8 Alloy Steel Button Head Socket Cap Screw is used where a rounded, lower-profile head helps keep exposed hardware compact without requiring countersinking. The alloy steel construction is suited to mechanical assemblies where the drawing calls for a low-profile rounded head and internal hex drive access.
Typical applications include brackets, fixtures, and tooling assemblies where the broad head distributes contact over a wider seating area. It also supports brackets, fixtures, and tooling assemblies when the broad head distributes contact over a wider seating area. Selection is usually driven by head shape, socket access, and exposed-surface requirements rather than by the geometry of a standard socket head cap screw.
For drawings using the 1/4-28 thread and 3/8 in. length, the reference head diameter is 0.419-0.437 in. and the head height is 0.122-0.132 in. The nominal body diameter and hex-key information below support fit checks, tool access planning, and replacement verification.
Reference dimensions may vary slightly by manufacturer.
