3-48 x 7/16 Alloy Steel Button Head Socket Cap Screw is selected for socket-drive fastening where head projection, appearance, and bearing area all matter. The alloy steel construction is practical for precision assemblies that specify a compact rounded head profile and internal hex drive.
Suitable assembly locations include brackets, fixtures, and tooling assemblies where the broad head distributes contact over a wider seating area. The same head style is useful for 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 purchasing or maintenance records calling out 3-48 thread and 7/16 in. length, the reference head diameter is 0.176-0.188 in. and the head height is 0.044-0.052 in. The nominal body diameter and hex-key information below give engineers and buyers a quick check on fit, socket access, and replacement selection.
Reference dimensions may vary slightly by manufacturer.
