Value Collection 101151PR Cup Point Set Screw 6-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 101151PR is a cup point set screw designed for clamping and positioning applications in mechanical assemblies. Manufactured from Grade 8 alloy steel, this headless fastener seats flush with or below the surface of a workpiece, applying concentrated holding force at the cup point to resist rotation and axial movement. The 6-32 UNC thread and 5/16-inch overall length suit compact assemblies where low-profile fasteners are required. A 1/16-inch hex drive accepts a standard hex key for installation. Licensed HVAC technicians, machinists, and general maintenance trades install this type of fastener routinely in equipment housings, shaft collars, and set-screw bosses.

This set screw is suited for light-duty shaft-to-collar connections, gear and pulley retention, and adjustment-point locking in mechanical equipment. The 6-32 UNC thread is a common size found in small motors, fan blade hubs, electrical enclosure hardware, and HVAC component assemblies. The cup point concentrates clamping load into a small bite on the mating shaft or surface, providing reliable retention without requiring a through-hole. This item is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• Cup point geometry concentrates holding force for reliable shaft and collar retention
• Grade 8 alloy steel construction provides high tensile strength for the fastener size
• 6-32 UNC thread is widely compatible with standard tapped holes in small mechanical components
• Headless design sits flush or below surface for clearance-critical installations
• 1/16-inch hex drive accepts standard hex keys and ball-end drivers
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fastener for any assembly with a 6-32 UNC tapped set-screw hole requiring a 5/16-inch overall length cup point configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 1/16-inch hex key or ball-end driver. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading in the fastener. Torque to the assembly manufacturer's specification for the fastener size and grade. Do not overtighten, as the cup point can deform soft shaft materials if excessive force is applied.
