Value Collection 601462BR Set Screw 3/4-16 X 1-3/4 in Cup Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 601462BR is a cup point set screw designed for secure mechanical fastening in shaft, collar, and hub assemblies. It features a 3/4-16 UNF thread form and an overall length of 1-3/4 inches, driven by a 3/8-inch hex key. Manufactured from alloy steel, it delivers the hardness and shear strength needed for industrial and trade applications where the cup point must bite into and hold a mating surface under load. This fastener meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 standards, making it suitable for applications that require traceable dimensional and mechanical compliance.

Cup point set screws like the 601462BR are commonly used in machine assemblies, pulleys, sprockets, couplings, and shaft collars where the fastener must grip without protruding beyond the workpiece surface. The 3/4-16 fine thread provides tighter thread engagement and improved resistance to loosening under vibration compared to a coarse thread equivalent. Typical installers include millwrights, maintenance technicians, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors working on rotating equipment in commercial and industrial settings.

Key Features

• 3/4-16 UNF fine thread for strong thread engagement and vibration resistance
• Cup point geometry bites into mating surface to resist rotational and axial movement
• Alloy steel construction provides high hardness and shear strength
• 3/8-inch hex drive compatible with standard hex keys and Allen wrenches
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 dimensional and mechanical standards
• Headless design sits flush or below the surface, eliminating protrusion hazards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ASME/ANSI B18.3 cup point set screw suitable for any shaft collar, hub, sprocket, pulley, or coupling assembly that accepts a 3/4-16 UNF threaded socket set screw.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanical technician or millwright. De-energize and lock out all rotating equipment before installing or removing set screws in accordance with applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Use a properly sized 3/8-inch hex key to avoid rounding the drive socket. Do not exceed the torsional capacity of the fastener by applying extension bars or excessive force to the hex key.
