Value Collection 704309PR Set Screw 10-24 X 3/8 in Cone Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 704309PR is a 10-24 UNC set screw with a cone point tip, manufactured from austenitic Grade A2 stainless steel. At 3/8 inches in overall length, this headless fastener is driven with a 3/32-inch hex key and seats firmly against a shaft or mating surface via its cone point geometry. Grade A2 stainless offers solid corrosion resistance and is well suited for environments where mild acids, moisture, or cleaning chemicals are present. Conforming to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F880 standards, this screw meets recognized dimensional and mechanical requirements. It is appropriate for use across light industrial, mechanical assembly, and maintenance applications where a reliable, non-projecting fastener is required.

This set screw is used in applications where a component such as a collar, gear, pulley, or knob must be locked onto a shaft without a protruding head. The cone point bites into the shaft surface for positive retention. Common installation scenarios include light machinery assembly, HVAC equipment sub-assemblies, pump shaft collars, and general mechanical maintenance. It is sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order, with packaging in single-unit quantities.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC thread with 3/8-inch overall length for compact, flush fastening
• Cone point geometry bites into shaft surface for positive rotational and axial locking
• Austenitic Grade A2 stainless steel provides corrosion resistance in wet or chemical-exposed environments
• 3/32-inch hex drive compatible with standard Allen keys and hex drivers
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F880 dimensional and performance standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-24 UNC cone point set screw suitable for use in any application requiring ASME/ANSI B18.3-compliant headless socket set screws with a cone point tip.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist, maintenance technician, or mechanical assembler using a 3/32-inch hex key or T-handle driver. Ensure the mating shaft or bore is clean and free of debris before seating the screw. Torque to the fastener manufacturer or equipment OEM specification for the thread size and material combination. Always de-energize or lock out any equipment before servicing components that use set screws for shaft retention.
