Value Collection BT-M8-8MM-AS M8 X 8 Mm Set Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BT-M8-8MM-AS is an M8 metric set screw designed for mechanical fastening applications where a non-marring, soft-tip point is required. The screw measures 8 mm in thread length and is manufactured from Grade 8 alloy steel, providing high tensile strength suitable for demanding industrial and mechanical assemblies. The brass soft tip protects mating shaft surfaces from damage during tightening, making this screw well-suited for use on finished shafts, precision components, and assemblies where surface integrity must be maintained. Drive engagement is through a standard hex socket, compatible with common Allen key or hex bit tooling.

This set screw is appropriate for use in shaft collars, shaft couplings, pulleys, gears, and similar mechanical components where a flush or recessed fastener is needed. The soft brass tip allows secure clamping force against a shaft without scoring or deforming the surface. Typical applications include light industrial machinery, HVAC equipment drive assemblies, pump shaft retention, and general mechanical maintenance. The metric M8 thread standard ensures compatibility with metric-dimensioned hardware and components.

Key Features

• Soft brass tip prevents marring and scoring on contact surfaces during installation
• Grade 8 alloy steel construction provides high tensile and torsional strength
• Hex drive socket for use with standard Allen keys or hex bit drivers
• M8 metric thread size with 8 mm thread length for compact, recessed installation
• Metric thread standard for compatibility with metric hardware assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard M8 metric set screw for use in shaft collars, couplings, pulleys, and other metric-threaded mechanical assemblies requiring a soft-tip point style fastener.

Installation Notes

Set screws of this type are installed by licensed mechanics or qualified maintenance technicians using a properly sized hex key or Allen wrench. Ensure the mating component and shaft are clean and free of debris before installation. Do not exceed the torque rating appropriate for an M8 Grade 8 set screw as specified by the equipment manufacturer. Minimum order quantity is 5 units per order.
