Torx Button Head

Description

HBS Fasteners manufactures premium Torx Button Head Machine Screws, engineered to provide a perfect balance between strength and style. The Torx (Star) drive system allows for much higher torque transfer than traditional Phillips or Slotted drives, as the force is applied perpendicularly to the lobes, preventing the tool from slipping out. The low-profile “Button” head provides a large bearing surface, making it ideal for securing thin materials while maintaining a smooth, modern look that is safe and free of sharp edges.

Technical Specifications

• Standard: Manufactured in accordance with ISO 7380-1 (Torx Drive variant).

• Head Style: Rounded Button (Dome) head for a low-profile, aesthetic finish.

• Drive Type: 6-Lobe Star Drive (Torx) for maximum torque and reduced tool wear.

• Thread Type: Precision-rolled Metric machine threads (Coarse and Fine pitch available).

• Size Range: Available from M2 to M16 in various lengths.

• Efficiency: Designed for use with power drivers in high-speed production environments.

Material & Quality Excellence

• Stainless Steel: Available in A2 (304) and A4 (316) for high-grade corrosion resistance, ideal for medical and food-grade machinery.

• Other Materials: Produced in Grade 10.9 and 12.9 High-Tensile Alloy Steel for structural and mechanical performance.

• In-House Control: Utilizing raw materials from our own wire drawing facility, we ensure the Torx recess is forged to exact tolerances. This ensures a “snug fit” for the driver bit, significantly extending tool life and preventing head damage.

• Surface Finishing: Options include Zinc Plating, Black Oxide, Nickel Plating, and Trivalent Passivation.

Key Application Areas

• Automotive & Motorcycles: Widely used in fairings, dashboards, and engine trim for a high-tech, professional appearance.

• Consumer Electronics: Ideal for laptops, gaming consoles, and smart home devices where compact, high-torque fastening is required.

• Bicycle Components: The industry standard for disc brake rotors, gear shifters, and stem bolts due to its reliability under vibration.

• Robotics & Automation: Perfect for frame assembly where precise torque control is necessary for sensitive calibrations.
