Value Collection 705185PR Set Screw 6-32 X 3/16 in Oval Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 705185PR is a 6-32 x 3/16 inch stainless steel set screw with an oval point and hex drive. It is manufactured to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F880 standards, making it suitable for precision fastening applications where a headless, flush-fit profile is required. The oval point style provides a low-stress contact with the mating surface, reducing damage to shafts or soft materials during tightening. Drive is a 1/16 inch hex socket. Material is Austenitic Grade A2 stainless steel, which offers good corrosion resistance in most industrial and mechanical environments. Installed by machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians in both light industrial and commercial settings.

This set screw is used to secure components such as collars, pulleys, gears, and knobs to shafts or threaded bores. The 6-32 UNC thread size and 3/16 inch overall length make it well suited for small-bore, close-tolerance assemblies. Grade A2 stainless construction makes it appropriate for environments with moderate moisture or mild chemical exposure. This part is sold individually but is subject to a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 1/16 inch hex key or allen wrench. Ensure the mating threaded bore is clean and free of debris before installation. Do not exceed the rated torque range for a 6-32 fastener to avoid stripping the hex socket or thread. Power down or de-energize any equipment before accessing rotating or moving assemblies where this screw is being installed or replaced.
