3/8-24 x 1 Alloy Steel Button Head Socket Cap Screw supports compact fastening in assemblies where a cylindrical socket head would project farther from the surface. The alloy steel construction fits equipment assemblies where a compact rounded head profile and internal hex drive are specified.
Designers often specify it for equipment housings and assembly fixtures where the button head presents a clean bearing surface on visible hardware. It can also serve material-handling systems and commercial equipment when the lower rounded profile helps limit snag points. The button-head form is specified when the fastener head remains visible or accessible and a smooth rounded profile is preferred.
For purchasing or maintenance records calling out 3/8-24 thread and 1 in. length, the reference head diameter is 0.636-0.656 in. and the head height is 0.185-0.199 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.
