Value Collection 93994 Cup Point Set Screw 10-32 X 3/8 in Ss 18-8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 93994 is a cup point set screw designed for mechanical assemblies where a fastener must seat flush within a tapped hole and apply direct clamping force against a shaft or mating surface. Manufactured from Grade 18-8 stainless steel, this screw offers solid corrosion resistance for both indoor and outdoor applications. The thread specification is 10-32 UNF (Unified Fine Thread) with an overall length of 3/8 inches and a 3/32-inch hex drive socket. Sold in packs of 50, this SKU suits maintenance stock, production runs, and shop inventory for mechanical, HVAC, and electrical trades.

Cup point set screws are widely used in residential and commercial mechanical assemblies including motor shaft collars, pulleys, sprockets, and fan hubs. The cup point geometry bites into the mating surface to resist rotation and axial movement without requiring a protruding head. This fastener is appropriate for any application where a headless, flush-mount clamping screw is required in a 10-32 tapped hole. Installers working on HVAC blower assemblies, pump couplings, or light mechanical equipment will recognize this as a standard shop consumable.

Key Features

• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in humid or wet service environments
• Cup point geometry creates a positive bite into shaft or mating surface to resist slippage
• 10-32 UNF thread standard ensures compatibility with precision-tapped fine-thread holes
• 3/32-inch hex (Allen) drive for use with standard hex key sets
• Headless design sits fully recessed within the tapped hole for flush or below-surface installation
• Pack of 50 supports production, maintenance stock, and bulk shop use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-32 UNF cup point set screw suitable for any mechanical assembly requiring a headless stainless steel fastener in a 10-32 fine-thread tapped hole.

Installation Notes

A 3/32-inch hex key (Allen wrench) is required for installation and removal. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading the screw in by hand to avoid cross-threading. Tighten to the assembly manufacturer's specification; do not over-torque stainless steel fasteners, as galling can occur. When used on rotating shafts, verify the shaft and collar are properly aligned before final tightening.
