Quality Square Head Set Screws
Quality Square Head Set Screws
Carbon Steel & Stainless Steel Options for Secure Holding Power
Quality square head set screws are reliable fastening solutions designed to secure components firmly in place without the need for a traditional head. Commonly used in industrial, mechanical, and maintenance applications, these set screws provide strong holding power for locking collars, pulleys, gears, and shafts. The square head design allows for easy installation and removal using a standard wrench, making them ideal for applications where accessibility and torque control are critical.
Available Point Styles
Cup Point, Cone Point, and Flat Point
Square head set screws are available in multiple point styles to suit different holding requirements. Cup point set screws feature a concave tip that bites into the shaft surface, offering excellent resistance to vibration and loosening. Cone point set screws have a sharp, tapered tip that penetrates the material for maximum holding strength, making them ideal for permanent installations. Flat point set screws provide a flush contact surface that minimizes shaft damage and is commonly used where frequent adjustments or removal are required.
Material and Finish Options
Carbon Steel Thermal Black Oxide & Stainless Steel
Manufactured from high-quality carbon steel, these square head set screws deliver superior strength and durability for demanding environments. The thermal black oxide finish enhances wear resistance, reduces glare, and provides mild corrosion protection without affecting thread dimensions. For applications requiring corrosion resistance, stainless steel square head set screws are available, offering excellent performance in wet, outdoor, or chemical-exposed environments.
