Product Information

Full details

The Unifix Grade 10.9 Socket Button Head Screws are designed for professional engineers, machinists, and DIY enthusiasts who require high-tensile strength for demanding structural or mechanical assemblies. Featuring a robust Grade 10.9 steel construction and an ISO 7380-1 compliant design, these screws offer excellent load-bearing capacity and a clean, low-profile finish. A key caveat is that while they are zinc-plated for moderate corrosion resistance, they are best suited for indoor or controlled-environment applications rather than direct, harsh outdoor exposure.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What does Grade 10.9 signify?

Grade 10.9 refers to the tensile strength of the steel. It indicates a nominal tensile strength of 1000 MPa and a yield strength of 900 MPa.

Can these be used outdoors?

They are zinc-plated, which provides some resistance to rust, but they are generally intended for indoor or protected outdoor use. For marine or harsh coastal environments, stainless steel may be preferred.

What drive tool do I need?

You need an Allen key or a hex drive bit that matches the internal socket size of the screw.

Are these screws self-tapping?

No, these are machine screws designed to be used in pre-tapped holes or with matching nuts.

How many screws are in a box?

Each box contains 200 individual screws.

What does the ISO 7380-1 standard mean?

It is an international standard that defines the dimensions and mechanical properties specifically for button head socket screws.

Troubleshooting

Screw head rounding during installation

Ensure the hex key is fully seated and is the correct metric size; replace the worn hex key immediately.

Difficulty threading into the hole

Check that the hole is clear of debris and appropriately tapped for the screw size to avoid cross-threading.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High tensile strength suitable for structural use
  • Clean, low-profile appearance
  • Resistant to cam-out with hex socket drive
  • Reliable standardized fit per ISO 7380-1
  • Durable zinc plating finish

Cons

  • Limited corrosion resistance in extreme outdoor environments
  • Requires specific hex key tools for installation
  • Button head is not flush-mounted like countersunk screws

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure maximum holding power, always use the correctly sized hex key for the specific socket diameter. Avoid over-torquing, which may strip the threads or the internal hex recess. While the zinc plating offers corrosion resistance, consider applying a light machine oil or a suitable thread-locking compound if installing in areas prone to high vibration. Always store unused screws in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture accumulation, which can degrade the plating over extended periods.
