• Broad compatibility with UNC coarse threads simplifying installation and replacement in standard industrial equipment
• Headless construction allows flush mounting in confined spaces without protruding components

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 6-32 UNC thread set screw delivers exceptional engineering value in applications requiring precise component alignment and secure fastening. The 18-8 stainless steel construction resists oxidation and chemical degradation, making it suitable for machinery, automotive, and electronic assemblies exposed to moisture or temperature variations. The extended tip design ensures maximum contact with mating surfaces, preventing loosening from vibrations—a common failure point in rotating equipment. With its coarse UNC threads and Class 3A fit, it maintains consistent clamping force in high-stress environments while the hex drive enables quick installation with standard tools, reducing assembly time and improving maintenance efficiency in industrial settings.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This set screw features precision 6-32 UNC coarse threads with Class 3A thread fit for tight tolerances and reliable performance. Dimensions include a 1/2" length with extended tip diameter of 0.092" and tip length of 0.038", manufactured to ASME B18.3 specifications. It is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring environmental safety and material traceability for industrial applications.
