Value Collection SS5X05030-050BX Set Screw M5 X 0.80 X 30 Mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SS5X05030-050BX is a metric dog point set screw designed for precision clamping and positioning applications in mechanical assemblies. Manufactured from Grade 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2), this set screw offers solid corrosion resistance for use in demanding shop and field environments. The M5 x 0.80 thread pitch follows metric standards, and the 30 mm overall length provides adequate engagement depth for shaft collars, hubs, and similar components. A 3.5 mm hex key drive allows secure torque application without slippage. This fastener is installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and mechanical contractors during assembly or repair of rotating equipment and fixtures.

This set screw is suited for both light industrial and general mechanical applications where a dog point is required to locate against a drilled dimple or flat on a shaft, preventing rotation or axial movement. The plain finish maintains dimensional accuracy without added coating thickness, making it appropriate where close tolerance fits are needed. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces per order, it is well suited for shop stock or service fleet replenishment.

Key Features

• Dog point tip seats securely into shaft dimples or flats for positive locating and anti-rotation
• Grade 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2) provides corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments
• M5 x 0.80 metric thread conforms to standard metric fastener sizing
• 3.5 mm hex key drive for reliable torque application with standard allen keys
• Plain finish preserves dimensional tolerances and allows post-installation surface treatment if required
• Meets DIN 915 fastener standard for consistent quality and dimensional compliance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or stock fastener for mechanical assemblies requiring an M5 x 0.80 metric dog point set screw conforming to DIN 915.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a 3.5 mm hex key. De-energize and lock out all equipment before accessing rotating shafts or assemblies. Thread the set screw in by hand to confirm proper thread engagement before applying final torque to avoid cross-threading. Do not exceed the rated engagement depth for the mating shaft material.
