Value Collection 605307PR Set Screw 3/8-16 X 1-1/4 in Oval Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 605307PR is a 3/8-16 x 1-1/4 inch alloy steel set screw with an oval point, designed for secure, non-permanent mechanical fastening in industrial and commercial applications. Manufactured to Grade 8 strength and conforming to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 standards, this set screw is driven with a 3/16 inch hex key and follows Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread form. The oval point provides a low-stress contact surface that minimizes shaft damage while maintaining firm holding force. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians install this fastener when securing collars, pulleys, gears, and similar components to shafts.

This set screw is suited for general industrial assembly, machine tool maintenance, and mechanical power transmission applications in both residential and commercial settings. The 3/8-16 UNC thread is a widely used coarse-thread size found across a broad range of mechanical assemblies. The oval point style is selected when repeated adjustment is needed or when shaft marring must be minimized. This item is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 5 units.

Key Features

• Grade 8 alloy steel construction for high tensile and torsional strength
• Oval point minimizes shaft and seating surface damage during installation and adjustment
• 3/8-16 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• 3/16 inch hex drive accepts standard hex keys and L-wrenches
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 dimensional and performance standards
• Overall length measurement of 1-1/4 inches for precise application fit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-dimension replacement or stock set screw for any mechanical assembly requiring a 3/8-16 UNC threaded, oval point set screw conforming to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F912 specifications.

Installation Notes

This set screw is typically installed by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance technicians using a 3/16 inch hex key or L-wrench. De-energize and lock out any rotating or powered equipment before installing or adjusting set screws per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Do not exceed the torque rating appropriate for the Grade 8 thread size as specified in standard fastener torque tables. Inspect the tapped hole for clean, undamaged threads before installation to ensure proper seating and clamp load.
