Value Collection 706371PR Set Screw 1/4-20 X 1/2 in Half Dog Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 706371PR is a 1/4-20 x 1/2 inch half dog point set screw manufactured from stainless steel to Austenitic Grade A2. It is driven by a 1/8 inch hex key and meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F880 standards. Half dog point set screws provide a short cylindrical tip that partially extends beyond the end of the screw, making them well suited for locking components onto shafts and for use in indexing or locating applications. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals install this fastener in mechanical assemblies where corrosion resistance and precise positioning are required.

This set screw is appropriate for light industrial and commercial mechanical assemblies. It is commonly used to secure collars, gears, pulleys, and similar components onto shafts. The Austenitic Grade A2 stainless steel construction provides resistance to corrosion in moderately demanding environments. The half dog point tip engages a mating hole or flat on the shaft, preventing rotation or axial movement of the secured component. Minimum order quantity is 10 pieces, sold as individual units per package.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-20 UNC half dog point set screw conforming to ASME/ANSI B18.3, suitable for use in any mechanical assembly or fixture that accepts a 1/4-20 internally threaded socket set screw of this point style and drive size.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 1/8 inch hex key or Allen wrench. Ensure the mating threaded hole is clean and free of debris before installation. Torque to the assembly specification established by the equipment manufacturer or applicable mechanical engineering standard. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the hex socket or the threaded bore.
