Value Collection 42912 Set Screw M4 X 0.70 Cup Point Din 916 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 42912 is a metric cup point set screw designed for secure, flush-mount fastening in mechanical assemblies. Manufactured from alloy steel to Grade 14.9 (45H), this set screw delivers high clamping force without a protruding head, making it well suited for shaft collars, shaft-to-hub connections, and adjustable mechanical stops. The M4 x 0.70 thread pitch and 8 mm overall length conform to DIN 916, ensuring dimensional consistency with standard metric hardware. Drive engagement is via a 2 mm hex key. Each package contains 50 pieces, sold in a minimum order quantity of one package.

This set screw is used in light-to-medium duty mechanical, industrial, and electromechanical assemblies where a recessed fastener is required. Typical applications include positioning collars on motor shafts, locking set-position stops on linear actuators, and securing small gears or pulleys. The cup point bites into the mating surface to resist rotation and axial movement. Suitable for general industrial maintenance, production assembly, and fabrication environments.

Key Features

• Cup point geometry bites into mating surfaces to resist axial and rotational movement
• Grade 14.9 (45H) alloy steel provides high tensile and torsional strength for its size class
• M4 x 0.70 metric thread conforms to DIN 916 standard for dimensional interchangeability
• 2 mm hex key drive allows installation in tight, recessed locations
• 8 mm overall length suits thin-wall collars and compact assemblies
• Packaged in quantities of 50 for bench stock and production use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style metric replacement or service-stock set screw for any M4 x 0.70 threaded hole requiring a DIN 916 cup point fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 2 mm hex key or hex bit driver. De-energize and lock out any rotating or powered equipment before installing or adjusting set screws on shafts or moving components. Do not exceed the torque rating of the mating threaded hole material, particularly when threading into aluminum or soft alloys. Apply a thread-locking compound if vibration resistance is required by the application.
