Value Collection NFC-KIT241 Steel Set Screw Assortment

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NFC-KIT241 is a 375-piece steel set screw assortment covering metric thread sizes M3 through M8. Each screw features a hex socket drive, making them compatible with standard hex keys and Allen wrenches used in mechanical assembly and maintenance work. Sizes range from 3mm to 16mm in length, giving technicians a broad selection for securing collars, pulleys, sprockets, and similar components without a head protruding above the surface. The full kit ships in a compartmented storage case that keeps sizes separated and ready for immediate use. At 3 pounds, the packaged kit is compact enough to carry in a service bag or store on a parts shelf.

This assortment is suited for mechanical maintenance shops, HVAC equipment assembly, electrical panel fabrication, plumbing equipment installation, and general trade service work where metric set screws are routinely needed. Having 15 size-and-length combinations on hand reduces the need for individual fastener orders during jobs. The compartmented case makes it practical for bench use or field service calls where multiple fastener sizes may be required in a single visit.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose metric set screw assortment suitable for mechanical assemblies, equipment maintenance, and fabrication applications requiring M3 through M8 cup-point or flat-point set screws with hex socket drive.

Installation Notes

Set screws are typically installed by machinists, millwrights, and general trade technicians using a hex key or T-handle Allen driver sized to match the socket. Always ensure the mating shaft or bore is clean and free of debris before seating the screw. De-energize or lock out any rotating equipment before removing or installing set screws on pulleys, couplings, or collars. Do not substitute a metric hex key for an imperial socket or vice versa, as this can strip the socket drive.
