Value Collection 601124PR Set Screw 6-32 1-1/4in Cup Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 601124PR is a 6-32 x 1-1/4 inch cup point set screw manufactured from Grade 8 alloy steel. Set screws are headless fasteners used to secure a component — such as a collar, gear, or pulley — against or onto a shaft by bearing directly into the mating surface. The cup point tip creates a small indentation for a positive hold without full penetration. Drive is a 1/16 inch hex (Allen) socket. This fastener conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 standards, making it a recognized choice for precision mechanical assemblies and general industrial applications.

Cup point set screws in the 6-32 thread size are commonly used in light mechanical assemblies, instrument hardware, small shaft collars, and electrical enclosure components. The UNC thread form provides reliable engagement in standard tapped holes. Grade 8 alloy steel construction supports higher clamping loads compared to lower-grade fasteners, making this screw appropriate for applications where vibration or torque loading is a concern. A licensed mechanic, millwright, or maintenance technician would typically install this fastener using a standard 1/16 inch hex key.

Key Features

• Cup point tip creates a positive seating indent on the mating shaft surface
• 6-32 UNC thread — compatible with standard tapped 6-32 holes
• 1/16 inch hex socket drive for precise torque application in tight spaces
• Grade 8 alloy steel construction for elevated strength and hardness
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 dimensional and material standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or stock fastener for any application requiring a 6-32 UNC cup point set screw with a 1/16 inch hex drive, conforming to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912.

Installation Notes

Install using a 1/16 inch hex key. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. Do not exceed the torque rating appropriate for the 6-32 thread size and Grade 8 alloy steel material — consult applicable mechanical standards for guidance. Always verify thread engagement depth is sufficient to achieve the required holding force before applying operational loads.
