Value Collection 151052PR Set Screw 6-32 X 1/8 in Flat Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 151052PR is a 6-32 x 1/8 inch flat point set screw manufactured from Grade 8 alloy steel. Set screws are headless fasteners that thread fully into a tapped hole to bear directly against a mating surface, locking components such as collars, pulleys, and hubs onto shafts without protruding hardware. This screw uses a 1/16 inch hex drive and meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 standards. It is suited for mechanical assemblies where a flush or recessed fastener is required and where the flat point distributes load evenly without marring the shaft surface.

This set screw is used in light mechanical and industrial assembly applications including motor shaft collars, set collar retention, gear hubs, and similar rotating or fixed component assemblies. The flat point design is preferred in applications where the mating shaft must remain undamaged or where the screw may need to be repositioned. It is a standard UNC-threaded fastener appropriate for both original equipment assembly and field repair work performed by machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians.

Key Features

• Flat point distributes clamping force without indenting or damaging the mating shaft
• Grade 8 alloy steel construction provides high tensile and torsional strength
• 1/16 inch hex socket drive compatible with standard hex keys and Allen wrenches
• Fully threaded headless design seats flush or below surface level
• Conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 fastener standards
• UNC thread standard ensures broad compatibility with standard tapped holes

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC set screw replacement for any tapped 6-32 threaded hole requiring a flat point, headless hex drive fastener per ASME/ANSI B18.3.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a 1/16 inch hex key or Allen wrench. Ensure the receiving component has a properly tapped 6-32 UNC hole before driving the screw. De-energize and lock out any machinery before installing or removing set screws on rotating components. Do not exceed the torque capacity of the 6-32 thread; over-torquing a small-diameter set screw can strip the socket drive or the thread.
