Value Collection SS5X08035-025BX Set Screw M8 X 1.25

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SS5X08035-025BX is an M8 x 1.25 x 35 mm dog point set screw manufactured from Grade 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, conforming to Grade A2 classification and DIN 915 standards. The dog point tip extends beyond the thread end to locate into a mating hole or groove, providing positive rotational and axial positioning of shafts, collars, and similar components. The hex drive socket accepts a 4 mm hex key for installation and removal. This fastener is suited for mechanical assemblies where corrosion resistance and precise component retention are required.

This set screw is used in general industrial, mechanical, and light structural applications where a headless, flush-mount fastener is needed. Typical installations include shaft-to-collar retention, gear and pulley positioning, and adjustable stop mechanisms on machine components. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with moisture exposure or where contamination from a plated carbon steel fastener is a concern. It is sold in a minimum order quantity of 25 pieces per order.

Key Features

• Dog point tip for positive shaft or bore location and torque transfer
• M8 x 1.25 metric thread, overall length 35 mm
• Grade 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2 designation for corrosion resistance
• DIN 915 fastener standard compliance
• 4 mm hex key drive for installation in confined or flush-mount locations
• Headless design seats flush with or below mating surface

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 915 dog point set screw suitable for M8 x 1.25 metric-threaded bores in collars, hubs, gears, pulleys, and mechanical assemblies requiring a dog point style fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 4 mm hex key; ensure the key is fully seated before applying torque to avoid rounding the drive socket. Power down and de-energize any associated machinery before servicing fasteners on rotating components. Do not exceed the rated torsional capacity of the stainless steel alloy, as over-torquing can cause galling common to austenitic stainless fasteners; use an anti-galling lubricant where appropriate. Follow applicable machine safety and maintenance codes for the equipment being serviced.
