Gibraltar Z2434 Threaded Rest Button 15/16 in Low Carbon Steel

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR Z2434 is a threaded rest button designed for use in mechanical assemblies requiring a hardened, adjustable contact point. Constructed from low-carbon steel with a black oxide coating, this button provides corrosion resistance and a consistent bearing surface. It measures 15/16 inches in overall length with a 1/2 inch head height and features a 3/8-24 thread and 1/2 inch hex drive. The black oxide finish reduces light reflection and offers mild surface protection in indoor or sheltered environments. Machinists, toolmakers, and mechanical assembly technicians typically install this hardware in fixture and jig work.

Threaded rest buttons like the Z2434 are used in precision fixturing, jig construction, and general mechanical assemblies where a stable, repeatable contact or rest point is needed. The 3/8-24 thread pitch suits standard tapped holes in tooling plates, fixture bodies, and machine bases. The 1/2 inch hex allows installation with common hand tools. This button is suited for light industrial, maintenance, and fabrication shop applications.

Key Features

• Low-carbon steel construction with black oxide coating for corrosion resistance
• 3/8-24 thread size for standard tapped-hole compatibility
• 15/16 inch overall length provides a compact, low-profile footprint
• 1/2 inch head height offers a defined, stable contact surface
• 1/2 inch hex drive for easy installation with standard wrenches or sockets

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded rest button for use in fixtures, jigs, and mechanical assemblies with 3/8-24 tapped mounting holes.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard 1/2 inch wrench or socket into a properly tapped 3/8-24 hole. Ensure the mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. De-energize or lock out any powered equipment before servicing assemblies that contain this hardware. Do not overtighten, as low-carbon steel threads can deform under excessive torque.
