Nylon Set Screw, Hex Socket Drive, Nylon Tip, #6-32, 1/4" Length (Pack of 5) Feature

Set Screws keep parts from turning relative to a shaft
Nylon 6/6 is suitable where non-conductivity, corrosion resistance, and cost are important considerations
Do not have an external head
Drive system is a hexagon-shaped hole
Coarse threads are better for brittle materials, and will assemble and disassemble more quickly than fine threads

Set Screws are often used for holding a pulley, gear, or other parts from turning relative to a shaft.

Nylon 6/6 is a general purpose thermoplastic with outstanding resistance to organic chemicals, acids and alkalis. Nylon wears well against other surfaces; it is readily machinable and may be milled, turned and cut with conventional machine tools. It does exhibit some dimensional swelling in wet applications which should be taken into account with its use. Tensile strength of this material is 12,000 psi (pounds per square inch).

Hex socket drive systems are driven by hex wrenches or power tools with hexagonal bits. The Nylon Tip is softer than metal and provides vibration damping and noise reduction.

A threaded fastener's size name includes information about the major external diameter, followed by the threads per inch, which indicates if it is coarse or fine. Coarse threads are better when working with brittle materials; they are sturdier and are easier to thread and unthread compared to fine. Coarse threading also allows for thicker coatings and platings.

Black Oxide Alloy Steel Set Screw, Hex Socket Drive, Flat Point, #8-32, 3/8" Length (Pack of 50) Feature

Set Screws keep parts from turning relative to a shaft
Black Oxide coating helps reduce friction and provides mild corrosion resistance
Do not have an external head
Drive system is a hexagon-shaped hole
Coarse threads are better for brittle materials, and will assemble and disassemble more quickly than fine threads

Set Screws are often used for holding a pulley, gear, or other parts from turning relative to a shaft.

The Black Oxide coating provides some lubricity to the product, meaning that there is less friction generated when using these products. The coating also provides a mild corrosion resistance, but should not be relied on in environments where corrosion resistance is a primary concern.

Hex socket drive systems are driven by hex wrenches or power tools with hexagonal bits. Flat Points are useful for minimizing marring and are good for making frequent adjustments.

Alloy Steel Set Screw, Hex Socket Drive, Cup Point, #10-24, 5/16" Length (Pack of 100) Feature

Set Screws keep parts from turning relative to a shaft
Alloy Steel is one of the strongest materials used in fasteners, making this an ideal material to use when the primary concern is the application pulling apart
Do not have an external head
Drive system is a hexagon-shaped hole
Coarse threads are better for brittle materials, and will assemble and disassemble more quickly than fine threads

Set Screws are often used for holding a pulley, gear, or other parts from turning relative to a shaft.

Alloy Steel is steel that has been alloyed with other materials to improve overall physical properties. Steels are designated by a 4 number SAE Steel grade. The first two digits indicate the primary materials used to form the steel. The last 2 digits identify the percentage of carbon for the alloy (in hundredths). Tensile strength ranges for the alloys typically used in these fasteners range from 170,000 to 180,000 psi (pounds per square inch), making these amongst the strongest of materials.

Hex socket drive systems are driven by hex wrenches or power tools with hexagonal bits. Cup Point is the most common point type, with good holding capability.

Hex socket drive systems are driven by hex wrenches or power tools with hexagonal bits. Also known as oval cup, the round tip of the Knurled Cup Point minimizes deformation of the contact surface, and is ideal for applications requiring frequent adjustments.

A threaded fastener's size name includes information about the major external diameter (in millimeters), followed by the thread pitch (millimeters per thread), which indicates if it is coarse or fine. Coarse threads are better when working with brittle materials; they are sturdier and are easier to thread and unthread compared to fine. Coarse threading also allows for thicker coatings and platings.
