Value Collection NT-1213-625-SS Set Screw 1/2-13 X 5/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NT-1213-625-SS is a 1/2-13 x 5/8 inch hex-socket set screw with a soft nylon tip point, manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. This fastener is designed to secure a component within or against another part without protruding beyond the outer surface. The nylon tip protects the mating surface from damage and reduces the risk of marring finished or precision-machined shafts. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for a wide range of industrial and mechanical applications. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals working with set screw applications will find this fastener well-suited to everyday production and repair tasks.

This set screw is used in mechanical assemblies where a shaft, rod, or cylindrical component must be held in position within a hub, collar, pulley, or similar fitting. The soft nylon tip makes it a preferred choice for applications requiring frequent adjustment or for use against chrome-plated, polished, or soft-metal shafts where a hardened point would cause surface damage. It is compatible with standard 1/2-13 UNC and UNF tapped holes in machine components across general manufacturing, maintenance, and repair environments.

Key Features

• 1/2-13 thread size with UNC and UNF thread standard compatibility
• 5/8 inch thread length provides positive engagement depth in standard tapped holes
• Nylon soft tip protects mating shaft surfaces from damage and marring
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or chemically active environments
• Hex socket drive accepts standard hex keys and Allen wrenches for easy installation and removal

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or standard-use set screw for any application requiring a 1/2-13 UNC or UNF tapped socket set screw with a soft tip point.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a hex key or Allen wrench sized to the socket of the fastener. Verify the tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can deform the nylon tip and reduce holding performance. When replacing an existing set screw, confirm thread pitch and length match the original specification before installation.
