Value Collection R63642226 Set Screw 6-32 X 1/4 in Cup Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63642226 is a cup point set screw intended for mechanical fastening applications where a headless, flush-mount fastener is required. Threaded 6-32 UNC with an overall length of 1/4 inch, this screw is machined from brass and driven with a 1/16 inch hex key. Cup point geometry bites into the mating shaft or surface to resist rotation and axial movement without the need for an exposed head. Brass construction offers corrosion resistance and is well suited for use in applications where ferrous fasteners are undesirable, such as near sensitive electronics, in wet environments, or where galling on brass shafts must be avoided.

This set screw is used in light-duty mechanical assemblies, instrumentation, small motors, pulleys, and collars where a 6-32 threaded hole is present. The compact 1/4 inch length suits shallow boss or hub depths common in small component assemblies. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals handling precision equipment or light mechanical components are the primary installers. The brass material also makes this screw a common choice in electrical panels and terminal block hardware where non-sparking properties matter.

Key Features

• Cup point geometry grips mating shaft surface to prevent rotation and axial movement
• Brass construction resists corrosion and is non-sparking, suitable for sensitive environments
• 6-32 UNC thread for compatibility with standard inch-series threaded holes
• 1/16 inch hex drive keeps overall fastener profile fully below surface level
• 1/4 inch overall length suits shallow hub and collar depths in compact assemblies

Compatibility

Designed for use in any application with a 6-32 UNC threaded hole requiring a headless cup point set screw with a 1/16 inch hex drive and 1/4 inch overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 1/16 inch hex key or Allen driver. Ensure the mating threaded hole is clean and free of debris before installation. Avoid over-torquing brass fasteners, as the material is softer than steel and susceptible to thread stripping under excessive load. Confirm the shaft or surface being gripped is properly aligned with the cup point before final tightening.
