Value Collection SS5X05025-050BX M5 Dog Point Set Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SS5X05025-050BX is an M5 x 0.80 x 25 mm dog point set screw manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2. It conforms to DIN 915, the international standard for socket set screws with dog points. The dog point projects beyond the thread end to locate into a matching hole or groove, providing positive axial and rotational positioning. Drive engagement is through a 3.5 mm hex key socket. The plain finish leaves the base material exposed with no additional coating. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and mechanical assemblers install this fastener wherever a headless, flush-mount screw with a locating tip is required.

This set screw is suited for metric mechanical assemblies in light industrial, HVAC equipment, plumbing fixture, and general machinery applications. The dog point design is commonly used to secure collars, pulleys, gears, and hubs to shafts by engaging a drilled flat or detent. The Grade A2 stainless construction resists corrosion in moderately wet or chemically active environments, making it appropriate for outdoor or exposed installations. Minimum order quantity is 50 pieces per order.

Key Features

• Dog point projects past the thread for positive shaft location in drilled flats or detents
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2 for corrosion resistance
• DIN 915 standard ensures dimensional interchangeability with other DIN 915 compliant fasteners
• 3.5 mm hex key drive for secure torque transfer in tight spaces
• Plain finish with no coating — compatible with common thread-locking compounds
• Fully threaded M5 x 0.80 metric coarse thread

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 915 compliant dog point set screw for metric M5 x 0.80 threaded applications requiring headless socket drive fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 3.5 mm hex key or matching hex bit driver. De-energize and lock out any equipment before accessing rotating assemblies or shaft components. Verify the mating shaft has a properly sized dog point hole or flat to accept the point diameter. Do not exceed the fastener material yield strength by over-torquing; consult applicable mechanical standards for Grade A2 stainless set screw torque ranges.
