Product Description
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.
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.

Grip
By luapgnik
I've been working on things since I was a Kid. We would spend all day taking STUFF apart, just to see What was inside. We found Springs, Steel Balls,Copper wire etc. Yes, the old Flat and Phillips screw drivers were used a lot. I was glad when they came out with the newer types/styles of nut and screw heads and Tools. The Hex head screw shown here is a Great and reliable part. This Hex Cup is a must, in my book, if you don't want a set screw to strip out on you. If a screw strips out you are probably looking at a lot of Down-Time, someone is going to have to pay for. This Set Screw works great and a person specially a Mechanic needs to keep an assortment of sizes on hand at all times!!! AS a Mechanic, I've used a lot and I mean a lot of them in the Rebuilding of Mining Equipment both Underground & on Surface Equipment. When I can replace a factory screw or bolt with a Hex I will. You must use the exact Grade of metal when replacing such Bolts and Screws. Go by the Manufacture's List of Grades needed for each Type.There is another Type/Style I Love to use, I will give Feedback on it when I Order it!!!Thanks for a Great Part.

Alloy Steel Set Screw
By Tyson J. Behnke
If color is a factor when purchasing this item, know that it is black. This item worked perfectly to lower the turn signal lights on my 2009 harley sportster 883 iron. i used it in conjunction with a 1 in. long 5/16"-24 coupling nut.
