Product information

These Stainless Torx button screws are made out of A2 (304) stainless steel material to ISO 7380 and have a metric coarse thread. They are sometimes known as star or hexalobular round head or dome head Screws, and characterized by the 6 point star shaped pattern. They have a Torx recessed drive. A Torx key ( sometimes referred to as an Torx wrench) or Torx driver is required to tighten or loosen a torx screw. Torx screws are commonly used in assemblies that do not provide sufficient clearance for a conventional wrench or spanner and the torx design allows for a higher torque to be used than a similary sized conventional socket drive screw and prevent Cam out. These low profile rounded head screws are often used for their aesthetic qualities.
