Press-Fit Locating and Support Buttons

Support and position workpieces and fixtures from the bottom or side. These buttons press into a drilled hole for permanent installation. Also known as rest buttons.
Stainless steel buttons are a good choice to avoid corrosion when working with stainless steel workpieces or fixtures.

Threaded Locating and Support Buttons
Use these buttons to support and position workpieces and fixtures from the bottom or side. Their hex shape lets you screw them into a threaded hole with a wrench or socket. Threading makes these buttons easier to replace than press-fit, so they are a good choice for high-wear applications. They’re also known as rest buttons.
Hardened steel buttons are stronger and resist wear better than steel buttons. They are precision ground, which helps them maintain their shape and size, even with repeated use. This makes them a good choice for use in modular fixtures where repeatability and exact positioning are important.
Buttons with a domed head support rounded or irregularly shaped workpieces with minimal contact.

Screw-Mount Locating and Support Buttons
Also known as rest buttons, these buttons support workpieces and fixtures from the bottom or side. Mount them onto a screw or stud extending from your jig or table.
Stainless steel buttons are corrosion resistant. They’re usually paired with stainless steel workpieces or fixtures. Hardened steel buttons are stronger and resist wear better than steel buttons. They are precision ground, which helps them maintain their shape and size, even with repeated use. This makes them a good choice for use in modular fixtures where repeatability and exact positioning are important.
Round buttons have an unthreaded, counterbored through hole. Mount them to a socket head cap screw.
Hex buttons are easy to turn with a wrench. They have a threaded hole, so you can mount them to a threaded bolt or stud. Those with a domed head support round or irregularly shaped workpieces with minimal contact.
