Value Collection 151070PR Set Screw 6-32 X 5/16 in Flat Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 151070PR is a cup-style flat point set screw designed for mechanical assemblies requiring a low-profile, flush-seating fastener. Sized at 6-32 UNC thread with an overall length of 5/16 inches, it is driven with a 1/16 inch hex key. Manufactured from Grade 8 alloy steel, it delivers the hardness and tensile strength required in demanding industrial and mechanical applications. It meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 standards, making it a code-compliant choice for OEM and maintenance applications alike. Machinists, millwrights, and mechanical contractors install this type of fastener when securing collars, pulleys, gears, or shaft-mounted components where a protruding head is not acceptable.

This set screw is suited for light-duty to medium-duty mechanical assemblies in industrial equipment, HVAC machinery, motors, and general manufacturing environments. Its flat point style distributes clamping load across a wider surface area than a cup or cone point, reducing marring on softer shaft materials. Sold individually per package with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, it is appropriate for both bench-stock replenishment and production assembly runs.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread with 5/16 inch overall length for precise low-profile fastening
• Flat point design reduces shaft marring compared to cup or cone point alternatives
• Grade 8 alloy steel construction provides high hardness and tensile strength
• 1/16 inch hex drive for use with standard hex keys or Allen wrenches
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 fastener standards
• Fractional inch measurement type for compatibility with standard imperial tooling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style and maintenance replacement set screw for mechanical assemblies requiring a 6-32 UNC thread, flat point, and 1/16 inch hex drive in imperial inch sizing.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists, millwrights, or mechanical technicians using a 1/16 inch hex key or T-handle driver. Always de-energize and lock out the equipment before servicing shaft-mounted components. Do not overtighten; apply torque gradually to avoid stripping the small-diameter thread. Inspect the mating shaft surface for damage or debris before seating the flat point.
