Value Collection BT-1032-250-SS Set Screw 10-32 1/4in Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BT-1032-250-SS is a 10-32 x 1/4 inch cup-point set screw with a soft brass tip, designed to secure components without marring or damaging finished shaft surfaces. Manufactured from Grade 18-8 stainless steel, it resists corrosion in wet, chemical, and outdoor environments. The hex drive socket accepts a standard hex key for installation and adjustment. This fastener is well-suited for precision mechanical assemblies, HVAC equipment, and other industrial or trade applications where a non-damaging hold point is required on shafts, spindles, or positioning components.

This set screw is used in applications where a secure clamping force is needed against a shaft or workpiece without surface damage. The brass tip compresses against the mating surface to hold position under vibration or load. Typical applications include motor shaft collars, shaft couplings, valve stems, set-screw hubs, and mechanical positioning components found in HVAC equipment, plumbing assemblies, and general mechanical installations. It is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

Key Features

• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and chemically active environments
• Soft brass tip protects shaft and mating surface finishes from marring during installation
• 10-32 UNC/UNF thread for compatibility with standard tapped holes
• Hex drive socket for installation with a standard hex key
• 1/4 inch thread engagement length suitable for light to medium clamping loads

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-32 threaded set screw suitable for use in any tapped hole or threaded insert accepting 10-32 thread sizing where a soft-tip point is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a hex key sized to the drive socket. Power down or de-energize any equipment before accessing shaft-mounted components. Thread engagement should be confirmed as fully seated before applying load. Always verify thread standard and hole tapping before installation to avoid cross-threading or stripping.
