Value Collection 601035PR Set Screw 2-56 X 1/2 in Cup Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 601035PR is a cup point set screw designed for precision fastening applications where a flush or recessed installation is required. Threaded to a 2-56 UNC specification with a 0.5-inch overall length, this alloy steel screw accepts a 0.035-inch hex key drive. The cup point tip bites into the mating surface to resist axial and rotational movement without protruding above the workpiece. It meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 dimensional and mechanical standards. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals working with small-diameter fastener applications will find this screw suited to tight-tolerance work.

This set screw is used in applications requiring a headless fastener, such as securing collars, gears, pulleys, and knobs onto shafts in mechanical assemblies. The 2-56 thread size places it in the fine-pitch, small-diameter range typical of precision instrument, electronics, and light mechanical assembly work. It is sold in a minimum order quantity of 10 units per order, with individual package quantities of 1.

Key Features

• Cup point tip bites into mating surface to resist axial and rotational movement
• 2-56 UNC thread for fine-pitch, small-diameter fastening applications
• Hex socket drive accepts a 0.035-inch hex key
• Alloy steel construction for strength in compact fastener form factor
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 standards
• Headless design sits flush or below the workpiece surface

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 2-56 UNC cup point set screw suitable for use in any tapped 2-56 threaded hole requiring a headless, hex-drive fastener per ASME/ANSI B18.3.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 0.035-inch hex key. Ensure the receiving tapped hole is clean and free of debris before driving the screw. Do not overtighten, as the small thread size is susceptible to stripping in soft mating materials. Follow applicable mechanical assembly guidelines and torque recommendations from the equipment manufacturer.
