Parameter guide

Button Studs: what the parameters mean and how to choose the right values.

The head diameter specifies the visible size of the button stud after tightening. A larger head ensures a more stable joint and better pressure distribution, while a smaller one provides a lighter look.

The base diameter defines the size of the bottom supporting part of the screw rivet. A larger base distributes pressure more evenly and increases stability, while a smaller one looks finer and suits delicate products.

Overall height is measured from the base to the top of the head and determines how much the rivet protrudes above the surface. Choose it according to the material thickness to avoid snagging – too short may prevent secure fastening, too tall will stick out excessively.

Indicates the material thickness suitable for the screw rivet. The correct length ensures that the thread engages securely, leaving 2–3 turns in contact after tightening. For added joint security, we recommend using thread-lock adhesive.

Frequently asked questions

Button Studs: most common questions – materials, selection and practical tips.

The total thickness of the layers you're joining decides. Add the shank overhang needed for spreading: the shank should be 2–3 mm longer than the material thickness.

The shank length is listed for every rivet in the dimensions table as dimension B — the full range is in the Rivets & Screws category.

The hole diameter differs by material. For leather, choose a punch slightly smaller than the shank diameter — leather is elastic and grips the shank tightly. For waterproof webbing, choose a punch that matches the shank exactly; the webbing doesn't stretch, so the shank has to pass through without being forced.

A shank that's too long shows up as a rivet that deforms while spreading, or caps that don't line up.
