About Our Button Head Torx Screws

Our button head Torx screws feature a gently domed button head paired with a hexalobular, 6-lobe Torx drive that seats the tool securely and transmits torque efficiently. The wide bearing surface spreads clamping force to reduce marring on softer components while the rounded silhouette gives your project a refined finish. Use them where you want dependable hold, streamlined ergonomics, and a professional aesthetic in one fastener.

The 6-lobe Torx recess engages driver bits positively, so you feel steady bite and controlled torque from the first turn. This geometry reduces cam-out, which helps preserve the recess over repeated uses and keeps your tooling in good shape. Faster, cleaner engagement means you can work at pace on lines, in the field, or at the bench with fewer do-overs.

You can round out your build with complementary options from our catalog when a different head or drive makes more sense for a specific joint. For flush, countersunk installations, consider our Flat Head Torx; for everyday utility with a classic profile, look at our Pan Head Torx; and when you need the same low-profile look with socket tooling, our Button Head Socket is a smart alternative.

BN 6404: Low-Profile Head, Big Performance

Modeled on the BN 6404 form, these screws use a domed button head with a hexalobular 6-lobe drive. That geometry increases the contact area between driver and screw, so more of your effort translates into clamping force and less into heat or wear. The result is a secure, repeatable tighten without the burrs and scuffs that flat-blade or cross-drive heads can leave behind.

Smooth, Domed Head That Protects Surfaces

A rounded crown means fewer sharp edges near hands, cables, and fabrics. The smooth contour glides over contact points and reduces the risk of catching on sleeves or harnesses in tight spaces. It also helps prevent gouging when parts are aligned or slid into position during assembly and maintenance.

Where They Work Best

Choose our button head Torx when you need a neat, finished appearance on visible panels, guards, and covers. They shine in consumer products, fitness equipment, enclosures, fixtures, and any application where user contact or fabric proximity is common. The comfortable head profile makes them a reliable choice for serviceable assemblies that are opened and closed often.

Size, Fit, and Compatibility

We offer a wide spread of diameters and lengths so you can match thread engagement to your material stack without over-penetration or excess protrusion. The head diameter is proportioned to provide adequate bearing area, and the Torx recess sizes are matched to standard driver bits for quick integration with existing tools. Pair them with correctly sized washers or spacers whenever you need to bridge slots or distribute load over larger cutouts.

Installation Tips for a Clean Finish

For best results, align components fully before bringing the head into contact, then apply steady torque with the correct Torx bit to seat the screw smoothly. Stop once the joint is snug and the head lands flush on the surface to preserve the domed profile and avoid compressing delicate materials. Pre-drilled pilot holes or thread-forming taps tailored to the substrate will help you achieve consistent clamp load and repeatable, professional-looking outcomes.

FAQs

What is a button head Torx screw used for?

A button head Torx screw is used when you want dependable clamping with a low-profile, rounded head and a drive that resists slipping. It is ideal for visible fastenings, user-touch areas, and assemblies that need a tidy, finished appearance without the sharp edges of taller head styles.

How is a button head Torx different from other Torx fasteners?

Compared with other Torx head styles, the button head has a domed, low-height profile and a broad bearing surface that spreads load gently across the part. You still get the same 6-lobe Torx recess for positive driver engagement, but with a smoother, more ergonomic head that sits closer to the surface than pan or hex heads.

When should you choose a button head Torx over a hex or Phillips screw?

Choose a button head Torx when you need a cleaner look, better tool engagement, and reduced cam-out during installation. The Torx drive helps you apply repeatable torque without stripping, and the rounded head improves safety and comfort wherever people handle or brush against the hardware.
