Value Collection SS6X12016-025BX M12 Set Screw Din 916

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SS6X12016-025BX is a metric cup point set screw designed for mechanical assemblies requiring a corrosion-resistant fastener. Sized at M12 x 1.75 with a 16 mm overall length, this set screw is manufactured from Grade 18-8 austenitic stainless steel conforming to Austenitic Grade A2 standards. The hex drive socket accepts a 6 mm hex key for installation and removal. The cup point tip bites into the mating shaft surface to resist rotational movement, making it a reliable choice for shaft collars, shaft couplings, and similar clamping applications. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians are the primary installers of this fastener type.

This set screw is suited for light to medium-duty mechanical assemblies in both industrial and commercial settings. The M12 x 1.75 metric thread size and DIN 916 standard make it a direct fit for components spec'd to metric fastener requirements. Typical applications include securing pulleys, gears, hubs, and collars to shafts where a flush or recessed fastener profile is required. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with moisture exposure or mild chemical contact where carbon steel hardware would be prone to corrosion.

Key Features

• M12 x 1.75 metric thread, 16 mm overall length per DIN 916 standard
• Cup point geometry provides positive grip on shaft surfaces without full penetration
• Grade 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Austenitic Grade A2 for corrosion resistance
• 6 mm hex drive socket for standard hex key installation
• Flush installation profile — no protrusion above the threaded bore surface
• Minimum order quantity of 25 units per order

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 916 metric cup point set screw for use in any M12 x 1.75 threaded bore requiring a recessed hex drive fastener conforming to metric thread standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance technicians using a 6 mm hex key. Always ensure the mating bore is clean and free of debris before threading the screw. Disengage all power and lock out rotating equipment before servicing any shaft or mechanical assembly. Do not exceed the rated torque capacity of the fastener material when tightening.
