Torx Barrel Nuts – Button Head

6 Lobe Torx Barrel Nuts – Mushroom / Button Head

6 Lobe Torx (TX) Button Head Barrel Nuts, often known as Mushroom Head Sleeve Nuts, feature a hexalobular Torx drive which is fastened using a standard 6 Lobe Torx screwdriver, wrench or insert bit.

Barrel Nuts are typically used to clamp two or more materials together and feature an internally threaded female barrel, allowing screws with a matching thread to fasten into.

The domed mushroom head, or mush head, is wider in diameter to create a larger bearing surface. This improves load distribution protecting the part or parts from damage. While the smooth barrel under the head helps to maintain a clean and aesthetic finish.

These 6 Lobe TX Mushroom Head Barrel Nuts are often found in playground equipment and outdoor furniture such as park benches. See more information in our blog Barrel Nuts and Security Barrel Nuts for Play Equipment.

Note: When calculating the required screw length, it is important to take into account the length of the Barrel Nut and internal thread. The length of the Button Head Barrel Nut is measured as the overall length under the head.
