Value Collection 151148PR Set Screw 10-24 3/16 in Grade 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 151148PR is a 10-24 UNC flat point set screw manufactured from Grade 8 alloy steel. Designed for secure, non-protruding fastening applications, the flat point style distributes clamping force evenly against the mating surface without marring or biting into it. The screw measures 3/16 inches in overall length and is driven with a 3/32 inch hex key. It conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 standards. This fastener is sold with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces and is suited for precision mechanical assemblies where a flush, vibration-resistant hold is required.

This set screw is used in light industrial, mechanical, and trade maintenance applications where a threaded shaft collar, pulley, gear, or similar component must be locked onto a shaft without a protruding fastener head. The flat point is the correct choice when the mating shaft surface must remain undamaged and the assembly may need to be repositioned or removed. Common install scenarios include HVAC blower wheel shaft collars, electrical motor components, and general mechanical assemblies requiring a UNC 10-24 thread engagement.

Key Features

• Flat point design prevents marring of mating shaft surfaces and allows repositioning
• Grade 8 alloy steel construction provides high tensile and torsional strength
• 10-24 UNC thread standard ensures broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• 3/32 inch hex drive for use with standard Allen or hex key sets
• Conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 dimensional and material standards
• Sold in multiples of 100, suitable for production, service stock, or bulk shop supply

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC 10-24 flat point set screw for use in any tapped hole or threaded collar conforming to the 10-24 UNC thread specification at 3/16 inches overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 3/32 inch hex key and is typically carried out by mechanics, HVAC technicians, or electricians during component assembly or shaft-collar adjustment. Always de-energize and lock out the equipment before installing or adjusting set screws on rotating components. Do not exceed the rated torque capacity of the thread engagement; hand-tighten firmly and verify seat before returning the assembly to service. Ensure the tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading the fastener.
