Value Collection 151352BR Set Screw 5/8-11 X 5/8 in Flat Point Grade 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 151352BR is a Grade 8 alloy steel set screw designed for secure, flush-point clamping and locking applications in mechanical assemblies. With a 5/8-11 UNC thread and an overall length of 5/8 inches, this fastener features a flat point geometry that distributes load across the mating surface without marring or indenting the shaft. Drive engagement is via a 5/16-inch hex key socket. Manufactured to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 standards, this set screw is a dependable choice for production and maintenance work where precise holding force is required.

This set screw is suited for use in shaft collars, pulleys, gears, couplings, and similar rotating or stationary assemblies where the flat point minimizes surface damage to the mating component. It is appropriate for both light industrial and heavy-duty mechanical applications. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians commonly install this fastener in manufacturing equipment, conveyor systems, and power-transmission components. The Grade 8 material grade ensures high tensile strength suitable for demanding load conditions.

Key Features

• 5/8-11 UNC thread for positive engagement in standard tapped holes
• Flat point design distributes clamping force without indenting the mating shaft
• Grade 8 alloy steel construction for high tensile and shear strength
• 5/16-inch hex key drive for precise torque application with standard tooling
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 dimensional and material standards
• Fractional inch measurement type for compatibility with standard inch-based tooling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or production fastener for any application requiring a 5/8-11 UNC flat-point set screw with a 5/16-inch hex drive.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a calibrated hex key or Allen driver. Ensure the tapped receiving hole is clean and free of debris before threading. Always de-energize or lock out the equipment before servicing any assembly that contains this fastener. Do not exceed the recommended seating torque for the mating material, and avoid overtightening, which can cause thread galling or part distortion.
