Value Collection NT-M10-16MM-AS Set Screw M10 X 16mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NT-M10-16MM-AS is an M10 x 16 mm set screw with a soft nylon tip point, designed to apply clamping force without marring or damaging the surface of the mating shaft. Constructed from Grade 8 alloy steel with a hex socket drive, this fastener delivers high tensile strength in a compact, headless form factor. The nylon tip absorbs contact stress and prevents scoring on hardened or finished shafts. Thread engagement spans the full 16 mm length. It is a standard industrial fastener installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, and mechanical assemblers in a wide range of equipment and fixture applications.

This set screw is suited for use in shaft collars, shaft couplings, pulleys, gears, and other rotary or stationary assemblies where a positive but non-damaging hold is required. The soft tip design makes it appropriate for use against polished, plated, or softer-metal shaft surfaces where a cup or cone point would cause unacceptable damage. Typical applications include light industrial machinery, conveyor components, and precision mechanical assemblies.

Key Features

• M10 thread size with 16 mm thread engagement length for secure clamping
• Nylon soft tip minimizes shaft damage and marring on contact surfaces
• Grade 8 alloy steel body provides high tensile and torsional strength
• Hex socket drive for use with standard Allen or hex key wrenches
• Headless profile allows full flush or recessed installation in tapped holes

Compatibility

Designed as a standard M10 metric set screw for use in any tapped M10 through-hole or blind hole requiring a soft-tip, non-marring fastener solution.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using an appropriately sized hex key or Allen wrench in the socket drive. Ensure the receiving component is securely fixtured and the tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. Do not exceed the rated torque range for Grade 8 M10 fasteners as specified by applicable machinery or equipment manufacturer guidelines. Refer to ASME or relevant industry fastener standards for proper installation practices.
