Value Collection SS6X06006-100BX M6 Set Screw Cup Point 18-8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SS6X06006-100BX is an M6 x 1.00 x 6 mm cup point set screw manufactured from Grade 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2). Conforming to DIN 916, this fully threaded headless fastener seats flush with or below a mating surface and uses a 3 mm hex key for installation. The cup point bites into the shaft or mating component to resist rotation and axial movement without the need for a protruding head. Machinists, millwrights, and assembly technicians use this fastener in shaft collars, pulleys, gears, and similar mechanical assemblies where a low-profile, corrosion-resistant hold is required.

This set screw is suited for metric threaded applications in light industrial, marine, food-processing, and general mechanical assembly environments where stainless steel is specified for corrosion resistance or cleanliness requirements. The M6 x 1.00 thread pitch and 6 mm overall length make it a standard choice for compact shaft-locking applications. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order, with a package quantity of 1.

Key Features

• DIN 916 standard cup point set screw for reliable shaft-locking performance
• Grade 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2) for corrosion resistance
• M6 x 1.00 metric thread with 6 mm overall length
• 3 mm hex key drive for installation with standard hex wrenches or L-keys
• Headless design seats flush or below surface for low-profile assemblies
• Minimum order quantity of 100 pieces ensures job-lot availability

Compatibility

Designed for use in any M6 x 1.00 metric threaded bore requiring a DIN 916 cup point set screw, including shaft collars, pulleys, couplings, gears, and mechanical assemblies specifying an A2 stainless steel fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 3 mm hex key; verify the key seats fully in the drive socket before applying torque to avoid rounding the recess. De-energize and lock out any machinery before accessing set screw locations on rotating components. Inspect the mating shaft surface for burrs or contamination prior to installation. Do not exceed the torque ratings specified in applicable DIN or engineering design documentation for this thread size and material grade.
