Value Collection SS6X02002-050BX M2 Set Screw Din 916

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SS6X02002-050BX is a metric cup point set screw designed for secure component locking in mechanical assemblies. Manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel to Grade A2, this fastener provides solid corrosion resistance in general industrial and light marine environments. The cup point geometry bites into the mating shaft surface to resist rotational and axial movement without requiring a through-hole. It measures M2 x 0.40 thread pitch by 2 mm in overall length and is driven with a 0.90 mm hex key. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals install this type of fastener in precision equipment where a flush or recessed fastener profile is required.

This set screw is suited for use in small-bore shaft-to-hub connections, set collars, shaft collars, gear hubs, and similar mechanical assemblies where axial and rotational retention is needed without protruding hardware. The compact M2 form factor makes it appropriate for instrumentation, light-duty actuators, and precision motion components. It conforms to DIN 916, making it a straightforward drop-in choice for applications specifying that fastener standard. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces per package.

Key Features

• Cup point geometry creates positive bite into shaft surface for reliable retention
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel Grade A2 construction resists corrosion in wet or humid environments
• M2 x 0.40 metric thread with 2 mm overall length suits tight-clearance assemblies
• 0.90 mm hex key drive for installation in confined spaces
• Conforms to DIN 916 fastener standard
• Minimum order quantity of 50 pieces supports production and maintenance stock requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or stock fastener for any mechanical assembly specifying a DIN 916 cup point set screw in M2 x 0.40 x 2 mm with Grade A2 stainless steel material.

Installation Notes

Install using a 0.90 mm hex key; ensure the key is fully seated before applying torque to avoid rounding the drive socket. Power down and de-energize any equipment before servicing assemblies containing set screws. Clean shaft and bore surfaces before installation to ensure proper cup point engagement. Follow applicable mechanical assembly standards and equipment manufacturer guidelines for fastener seating procedures.
