Value Collection 703372PR Set Screw 1/4-20 X 5/8 in Flat Point Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 703372PR is a 1/4-20 UNC flat point set screw manufactured from austenitic Grade A2 stainless steel. Designed for headless, flush-mount fastening applications, this set screw seats flush within a threaded hole and applies clamping force through its flat point tip, making it well-suited for securing components against a shaft or surface without marring soft materials. It measures 5/8 inches in overall length and is driven with a 1/8-inch hex key. Conforming to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F880, it meets widely recognized fastener standards for dimensional accuracy and material performance.

This set screw is appropriate for light industrial, mechanical, and trade assembly applications where corrosion resistance is required. The austenitic Grade A2 stainless steel construction provides good resistance to rust and oxidation, making it suitable for use in damp environments, HVAC equipment, plumbing assemblies, and similar installations. The flat point style is commonly selected when the mating surface must remain undamaged or when vibration resistance through distributed contact is preferred over a cone or cup point design.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• Flat point tip protects mating surfaces and distributes clamping load evenly
• Austenitic Grade A2 stainless steel for corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments
• 1/8-inch hex drive — driven with a standard hex key or Allen wrench
• 5/8-inch overall length suits moderate-depth fastening applications
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F880 dimensional and material standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-20 UNC flat point set screw conforming to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F880, suitable for use in any application requiring a 1/4-20 headless set screw with a flat point and 1/8-inch hex drive.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the screw into a pre-tapped 1/4-20 hole and tightening with a 1/8-inch hex key. Ensure the mating assembly is de-energized or depressurized before fastening components in mechanical or fluid systems. Do not exceed the torque capacity of the stainless steel fastener, as over-tightening can cause galling — applying an anti-galling compound is common practice with austenitic stainless hardware. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer specifications for final torque requirements.
