Value Collection R40318433 Set Screw 10-32 X 3/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R40318433 is a 10-32 x 3/4 inch cup point set screw machined from Grade 18-8 stainless steel. Set screws are fully threaded fasteners with no head — they seat flush or below a surface to lock collars, pulleys, gears, and hubs onto shafts. The cup point bites into the shaft surface to resist rotational and axial movement under load. The 3/32 inch hex drive accepts a standard hex key for installation and removal. Grade 18-8 stainless provides solid corrosion resistance in wet or mildly corrosive environments without the cost of higher-alloy grades. This part ships individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 100 units.

Cup point set screws in 10-32 UNF thread are a standard fastener in HVAC equipment, motors, fan assemblies, and light mechanical assemblies. The 10-32 thread designation indicates a number 10 diameter with 32 threads per inch following the Unified National Fine thread standard. The 3/4 inch overall length suits medium-depth engagement applications. Stainless steel construction makes these suitable for indoor and outdoor equipment exposed to moisture, cleaning agents, or humidity — common in refrigeration, pool mechanical rooms, and rooftop HVAC units.

Key Features

• Cup point geometry bites into shaft material to resist slipping under torque and axial load
• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and humid environments
• 10-32 UNF thread for compatibility with standard fine-thread tapped holes
• 3/32 inch hex drive for use with common Allen keys and hex drivers
• Headless design allows flush or recessed installation in collars and hubs
• Minimum order quantity of 100 units suits service van stock and shop inventory

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-32 UNF cup point set screw suitable for use in any tapped hole meeting the 10-32 Unified National Fine thread standard where a 3/4 inch overall length and 3/32 inch hex drive are specified.

Installation Notes

Set screws are installed by trade mechanics, HVAC technicians, and equipment maintenance professionals using a 3/32 inch hex key or hex driver bit. Power down and de-energize any equipment before accessing rotating assemblies or shaft-mounted components. Apply only hand torque with a hex key — do not use impact drivers on set screws, as over-torquing can strip the hex socket or fracture the fastener. Confirm thread engagement depth meets the requirement of the assembly before applying load.
