Value Collection 101481PR Set Screw 3/8-24 X 1/2 Cup Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 101481PR is a Grade 8 alloy steel set screw with a 3/8-24 UNF thread and a 1/2-inch overall length. It features a cup point design that bites into a shaft or workpiece to resist rotation and axial movement. The hex socket drive accepts a 3/16-inch hex key for installation in confined spaces where a standard wrench cannot reach. Grade 8 alloy steel provides high tensile strength suited to demanding mechanical and industrial fastening applications. This fastener meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 standards.

Cup point set screws in 3/8-24 UNF are commonly used in mechanical assemblies to secure pulleys, collars, gears, and hubs to shafts. They are found in light industrial equipment, HVAC drive assemblies, pump components, and general mechanical fabrication. The 1/2-inch overall length suits medium-depth shaft engagement where a flush or recessed installation is required. Installation is performed by machinists, millwrights, and mechanical technicians across manufacturing, facilities maintenance, and trade service environments.

Key Features

• 3/8-24 UNF thread for fine-pitch engagement and precise torque control
• Cup point tip bites into shaft surface to resist rotation and axial shift
• Grade 8 alloy steel construction for high tensile and shear strength
• 3/16-inch hex socket drive for installation with a standard hex key
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 fastener standards
• 1/2-inch overall length suits medium shaft-depth applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fastener for mechanical assemblies requiring a 3/8-24 UNF cup point set screw with a 3/16-inch hex drive.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or mechanical technician using a 3/16-inch hex key or appropriate hex bit driver. Ensure the mating shaft and threaded bore are clean and free of debris before threading the screw. De-energize and lock out any equipment before servicing assemblies that contain this fastener. Do not exceed the rated load for Grade 8 hardware as specified by the governing mechanical or equipment standard.
