Value Collection 151106PR Set Screw 8-32 Flat Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 151106PR is a cup-point-style flat point set screw designed for mechanical assemblies requiring secure, non-marring fastening without a protruding head. Sized at 8-32 x 0.25 inches overall length, this screw is made from Grade 8 alloy steel, offering high tensile strength suitable for demanding industrial and mechanical applications. It is driven by a 5/64-inch hex key and meets the dimensional and performance requirements of ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and mechanical assemblers commonly install this fastener when securing collars, pulleys, gears, or similar components to shafts.

This set screw is well suited to light-to-medium mechanical assemblies where a flat point is required to apply clamping force against a shaft without deforming or marking the mating surface. The flat point distributes load evenly and is a common choice when the fastener must sit flush or when the shaft surface must remain undamaged for repositioning. The 8-32 UNC thread is a standard coarse-pitch size used widely across industrial, HVAC, and electrical panel assembly work.

Key Features

• Flat point geometry applies even clamping force without marring shaft surfaces
• Grade 8 alloy steel construction for high tensile and torsional strength
• 8-32 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• 5/64-inch hex drive allows torquing with a standard Allen wrench or hex key
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 dimensional and material standards
• Headless design sits flush or below the surface of the mating component

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 UNC flat point set screw for use in any tapped hole conforming to the 8-32 thread standard, suitable for mechanical assemblies requiring ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 compliant fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a 5/64-inch hex key or Allen wrench. Always ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. De-energize any equipment and relieve all mechanical loads before servicing assemblies containing set screws. Avoid over-torquing, which can strip the 8-32 thread or damage the hex socket.
