Value Collection 42965 Set Screw M12 X 1.75 Cup Point Din 916

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 42965 is an M12 x 1.75 x 12 mm cup point set screw manufactured from alloy steel to Grade 14.9 (45H), conforming to DIN 916. The cup point geometry bites into the mating shaft surface to resist rotation and axial movement under load. The internal hex drive accepts a 6 mm hex key for installation in recessed or blind locations where a standard wrench cannot reach. Grade 14.9 (45H) alloy steel delivers high tensile and torsional strength, making this fastener appropriate for demanding clamping and locking applications in mechanical assemblies. Sold in a package of 10 pieces.

This set screw is suited for use in mechanical power transmission components, industrial machinery, and general fabrication where metric fasteners are required. Typical applications include securing collars, hubs, gears, pulleys, and sprockets to shafts. The metric thread standard and DIN 916 specification make it a direct fit in equipment designed to European and international fastener standards. Maintenance technicians, millwrights, and machine builders routinely use this fastener type during equipment assembly, shaft alignment, and component replacement tasks.

• Packaged in quantities of 10 pieces per pack

Compatibility

Designed as a metric DIN 916 cup point set screw for use in any assembly requiring an M12 x 1.75 thread form and internal hex drive.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by millwrights or maintenance technicians using a 6 mm hex key or Allen driver. De-energize and lock out any rotating equipment before installing or adjusting set screws on shafts. Apply the correct seating torque per applicable engineering specifications for Grade 14.9 fasteners. Do not substitute a lower-grade set screw in applications where Grade 14.9 strength is specified.
