Value Collection R63642284 Cup Point Set Screw Brass

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63642284 is a brass cup point set screw designed for secure, non-permanent fastening in light-duty mechanical assemblies. The cup point tip bites into the mating surface to resist rotation and axial movement without requiring a through-hole. Sized at 6-32 UNC threading with an overall length of 3/16 inches, this fastener is driven with a 1/16-inch hex key. Brass construction offers corrosion resistance and is well suited for applications where non-magnetic or spark-resistant properties matter. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly workers commonly install these in instrument housings, shaft collars, and small mechanical components.

This set screw is used in general industrial, commercial, and light mechanical assembly environments. Typical applications include securing collars to shafts, locking adjustment mechanisms, and fastening pulleys or gears in low-torque scenarios. The 6-32 UNC thread size is a common standard in instrument and light mechanical work. Brass material makes it appropriate for use in electrical enclosures or environments where ferrous fasteners are undesirable.

Key Features

• Cup point tip grips mating surface to resist rotation and axial shift
• 6-32 UNC thread for compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes
• Overall length of 3/16 inches for compact, flush-mount fastening
• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and non-magnetic properties
• 1/16-inch hex drive for use with standard allen or hex keys

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC cup point set screw for use in any tapped hole conforming to that thread size and pitch in light mechanical and instrument assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 1/16-inch hex key. Ensure the tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading the screw. Do not overtighten brass fasteners, as the material is softer than steel and susceptible to thread stripping under excessive torque. Confirm the cup point is properly seated against the shaft or mating surface before returning the assembly to service.
