Value Collection 151100PR Set Screw 8-32 X 3/16 in Flat Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 151100PR is a cup-point-free, flat-point set screw designed for applications requiring a flush or minimal-protrusion hold. Sized at 8-32 UNC thread with an overall length of 3/16 inches, it is driven by a 5/64-inch hex key. Manufactured from Grade 8 alloy steel, this fastener meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 standards. It is well suited for securing collars, knobs, gears, and mechanical assemblies where the flat point distributes load evenly against the mating surface without deforming it. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians commonly specify this type for precision mechanical assemblies.

This set screw is used across a wide range of light industrial, HVAC, and mechanical applications. It is appropriate for securing rotating components to shafts, locking adjustment mechanisms, and any assembly requiring a headless fastener that sits fully within a tapped hole. Its UNC thread form is compatible with standard inch-series tapped holes. The minimum order quantity is 100 pieces per order, with a package quantity of 1, making it practical for shop stock replenishment and MRO sourcing.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC thread with 3/16-inch overall length for compact fastening applications
• Flat point design distributes clamping load without marring or deforming the shaft surface
• Grade 8 alloy steel construction for high tensile strength in demanding mechanical use
• 5/64-inch hex drive accepts standard hex keys and L-wrenches
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 dimensional and material standards
• Headless design allows the fastener to sit fully flush within the tapped hole

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series set screw for use in any application with an 8-32 UNC tapped hole requiring a flat-point, hex-drive headless fastener per ASME/ANSI B18.3.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 5/64-inch hex key or L-wrench inserted into the drive socket. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. Do not overtighten, as Grade 8 alloy steel set screws can strip fine threads in softer mating materials if excessive torque is applied. Follow applicable mechanical assembly standards and manufacturer specifications for the host component when determining final seating torque.
