Value Collection 833048PR M5x0.8x8mm Dog Point Set Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 833048PR is an M5 x 0.80 x 8 mm dog point set screw manufactured from alloy steel at Grade 14.9 (45H), the highest standard strength class for metric set screws. It features a black oxide finish that provides moderate corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection on exposed fastener surfaces. The hex drive accepts a 2.50 mm hex key and allows high torque application in tight-clearance assemblies. Overall length is 8 mm. This fastener conforms to DIN 915 and ISO 4028 standards and is installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and mechanical assemblers across industrial and OEM applications.

Dog point set screws are used where a locating pin function is needed in addition to shaft locking. The extended dog point seats into a mating hole or slot on a shaft, preventing axial movement while the screw body clamps radially. Common applications include shaft collars, shaft couplings, gear hubs, and rotating machinery assemblies in manufacturing, automation, and general industrial maintenance environments. The M5 thread size suits compact shafting and small-diameter hub assemblies. This item is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• Dog point profile seats into shaft holes or slots for positive axial location
• Grade 14.9 (45H) alloy steel construction delivers maximum set screw strength class
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and a low-reflectance surface
• Conforms to DIN 915 and ISO 4028 fastener standards
• 2.50 mm hex key drive for high-torque installation in confined spaces
• Metric M5 x 0.80 thread for use in metric-dimensioned assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric set screw conforming to DIN 915 and ISO 4028, suitable for use in any M5 x 0.80 tapped through-hole or blind hole requiring a dog point fastener in industrial and OEM mechanical assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or mechanical technicians using a 2.50 mm hex key or hex bit driver. De-energize and lock out any rotating or powered equipment before installing or adjusting set screws per applicable LOTO procedures. Ensure the mating shaft hole or slot is properly sized to accept the dog point before seating the screw. Do not substitute an undersized hex key, as rounding the drive socket will require extraction and replacement of the fastener.
