Value Collection SS6X10010-050BX M10 Set Screw 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SS6X10010-050BX is a metric cup point set screw designed for secure, position-locking applications in mechanical assemblies. Manufactured from Grade 18-8 austenitic stainless steel to the A2 designation, it provides reliable corrosion resistance in environments where standard carbon steel fasteners would be inadequate. The M10 x 1.50 thread pitch and 10 mm overall length suit compact clamping applications. Drive is hex socket, requiring a 5 mm hex key for installation and removal. This fastener conforms to DIN 916, the recognized standard for hexagon socket cup point set screws, ensuring dimensional consistency for use in precision assemblies.

This set screw is suited for use in HVAC equipment, pump assemblies, conveyor systems, shaft collars, pulleys, and other mechanical components where a flush or recessed fastener is required to lock a part onto a shaft or into a housing. The cup point geometry bites into the mating surface to resist rotation and axial movement without the need for a through-hole. It is commonly specified by millwrights, maintenance technicians, and mechanical contractors working on metric-standard equipment in both light industrial and commercial settings.

Key Features

• Cup point tip bites into mating shaft surface to resist torque and axial load
• Grade 18-8 austenitic stainless steel construction resists corrosion and oxidation
• A2 material designation meets DIN 916 dimensional and mechanical standards
• Hex socket drive requires a 5 mm hex key for flush or recessed installation
• Metric M10 x 1.50 thread for compatibility with metric-standard assemblies
• 10 mm overall length suits shallow boss and hub applications

Compatibility

Designed for use in metric-threaded assemblies requiring a DIN 916 hex socket cup point set screw with M10 x 1.50 thread specification.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed millwright or maintenance mechanic. De-energize and lock out all rotating equipment before installing or removing set screws. Use a calibrated 5 mm hex key to avoid rounding the socket drive. Do not use power tools without torque control, as over-tightening can deform the cup point or damage the mating shaft surface.
