Value Collection 101697BR Set Screw 7/8-9 X 2 in Cup Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 101697BR is a cup point set screw designed for mechanical assemblies where a fastener must apply holding force against a shaft or mating surface without a protruding head. Sized at 7/8-9 thread with an overall length of 2 inches, this screw is driven by a 1/2-inch hex key and seats firmly with a cup-shaped point that bites into the contact surface for secure retention. Made from alloy steel, it delivers the hardness and shear strength required in industrial, HVAC equipment, and general trade applications. It conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 standards.

This set screw is suited for use in rotating assemblies, shaft collars, pulleys, couplings, and mechanical drives found in commercial and industrial equipment. It is appropriate wherever a headless, flush-mount fastener is required to lock a component onto a shaft under load. Machinists, millwrights, HVAC technicians, and maintenance professionals regularly install this style of fastener during equipment assembly, repair, and preventive maintenance.

Key Features

• 7/8-9 UNC thread size with 2-inch overall length for deep engagement
• 1/2-inch hex key drive for reliable torque application
• Alloy steel construction provides high hardness and shear resistance
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 dimensional and material standards
• Sold individually — Pkg Qty 1, MOQ 1

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 7/8-9 UNC cup point set screw for use in any application requiring an ASME/ANSI B18.3-compliant headless fastener in that thread size and length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 1/2-inch hex key or Allen wrench. Ensure the mating shaft or surface is clean and free of debris before seating the screw. De-energize and lock out any machinery before installing or removing set screws in rotating components, following OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Do not exceed the rated torque range for the fastener grade, and inspect threads for damage before installation.
