Value Collection SS6X08035-050BX M8 Set Screw Din 916

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SS6X08035-050BX is an M8 x 1.25 x 35 mm cup point set screw manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2. It conforms to DIN 916 and is driven by a 4 mm hex key. The cup point geometry bites into the mating surface to resist rotation and axial movement without protruding above the workpiece. This fastener is suited for mechanical assemblies, shaft-collar retention, and similar clamping applications where a flush or recessed fastening point is required. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians are the typical installers.

This set screw is used in industrial, commercial, and trade mechanical assemblies requiring metric fasteners with corrosion resistance. The M8 x 1.25 metric thread and 35 mm overall length make it appropriate for medium-duty shaft collars, adjustment mechanisms, and fixture components. Stainless steel construction suits environments with moisture exposure or mild chemical contact where carbon steel fasteners would be at risk of corrosion.

Key Features

• M8 x 1.25 metric thread, 35 mm overall length per DIN 916 standard
• Cup point tip engages mating surface to prevent rotation and axial shift
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2 for corrosion resistance
• 4 mm hex key drive for precise torque application in tight spaces
• Headless design seats flush or below surface for clearance-sensitive assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 916 metric cup point set screw for use in any M8 x 1.25 threaded application requiring stainless steel construction and a cup point contact tip.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 4 mm hex key; ensure the key is fully seated before applying torque to avoid rounding the socket. Clean and inspect the threaded bore before installation. Anti-galling compound is recommended when threading stainless steel fasteners into stainless steel components to prevent seizing. Follow applicable mechanical assembly standards for proper seating and engagement depth.
