Value Collection SS6X06008-100BX Set Screw M6 X 1.00

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SS6X06008-100BX is an M6 x 1.00 x 8 mm cup point set screw manufactured from Grade 18-8 austenitic stainless steel to the A2 material designation and conforming to DIN 916. The cup point geometry bites into a shaft surface to resist rotational and axial movement without requiring a through-hole or protruding head. The hex socket drive accepts a 3.00 mm hex key for installation in confined or recessed spaces. This fastener is sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces and is suited for mechanical assembly, shaft collars, pulleys, and similar fixturing tasks across light industrial and commercial applications.

This set screw is appropriate for metric fastening applications where a flush or below-surface profile is required. The stainless steel construction makes it well-suited for environments with mild corrosion exposure, including food processing equipment, marine-adjacent assemblies, and general industrial machinery. Machinists, millwrights, and mechanical contractors are the primary installers. The DIN 916 standard ensures dimensional consistency for use in metric-specified designs.

Key Features

• Cup point geometry for positive grip on shaft surfaces without surface damage typical of flat-point designs
• Grade 18-8 austenitic stainless steel with A2 material designation for corrosion resistance
• Hex socket drive sized at 3.00 mm for use with standard metric hex keys
• Conforms to DIN 916 for dimensional consistency in metric fastener applications
• Headless design allows installation flush with or below the mating surface
• Sold in multiples of 100 pieces to support production and service inventory

Compatibility

Designed for use in any M6 x 1.00 threaded hole requiring a headless cup point set screw per DIN 916 dimensional standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 3.00 mm hex key torqued by hand or with a calibrated hex driver. Ensure the threaded hole is clean and free of debris before driving the screw. Do not exceed the rated engagement depth or apply impact drive tools, as stainless fasteners are susceptible to galling. Follow applicable machine safety lockout procedures before servicing any assembly containing rotating or pressurized components.
