S-92845A618 5/16"-18 x 3/4" ASME B18.3 Set Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ideal for harsh industrial environments
• Maximum holding power ensured by Class 3A thread fit for tight, secure fastening in critical assemblies
• Enhanced grip and anti-loosening due to the extended tip design that bites into mating surfaces
• High durability and strength from Rockwell B80 hardness, resisting wear under repeated use
• Easy installation and removal with 5/32" hex drive, providing reliable torque transmission without head protrusion
• Wide compatibility with UNC coarse threads (5/16"-18) for quick assembly in various industrial applications
• Regulatory compliance meeting ASME B18.3, RoHS 3, and REACH for safe, eco-conscious usage

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 5/16"-18 UNC set screw is engineered to address common industrial challenges like component slippage and vibration-induced loosening. The 18-8 stainless steel material offers excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, making it suitable for applications in machinery, automotive, and outdoor equipment where exposure to moisture or chemicals is a concern. Its extended tip and Class 3A thread fit provide a firm bite into shafts, pulleys, or collars, ensuring reliable positioning without frequent re-tightening. The hex headless design allows for flush mounting in confined spaces, while the coarse UNC threads facilitate quick installation, reducing assembly time and maintenance costs in high-volume production settings.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This set screw adheres to precise dimensional standards, including Class 3A thread fit for tight tolerances and UNC coarse threading (5/16"-18). It meets ASME B18.3 specifications for consistency and reliability in manufacturing. Compliance with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) ensures it is free from hazardous substances, supporting sustainable and safe industrial practices.
