Set Screw OEM

Set Screw OEM Manufacturer

Set screws are a type of blind screw specifically designed to secure collars, pulleys, or gears onto shafts. In contrast to hex bolts, which often encounter resistance due to their heads, set screws offer a more efficient solution. When used without a nut, set screws provide sufficient strength to hold the assembly securely in place, while also ensuring they remain unobstructed and do not interfere with the smooth operation of the mechanism.

Yuhuang is a supplier of high-end fastener customization, providing you with Set Screws in various sizes. No matter what your requirements are, we can provide you with fast delivery service.

What Types of Set Screws Are There?

1.Flat-tip tubular screws fit pre-drilled holes, enabling shaft rotation without moving the part.

2.The elongated tip is generally designed to fit into a shaft's machined slot.

3.They can serve as a substitute for dowel pins.

1.Also referred to as extended tip set screws.

2.Shorter extension compared to dog point.

3.Designed for permanent installation, fitting into a corresponding hole.

4.Flat tip extends across the screw, aligning with a machined groove on the shaft.

1.Cup-shaped tip bites into surface, preventing component from loosening.

2.Design offers excellent vibration resistance.

3.Leaves a ring-shaped impression on the surface.

4.Concave, recessed end.

1.Cone set screws provide maximum torsional holding power.

2.Penetrates flat surfaces.

3.Serves as a pivot point.

4.Perfect for applying greater force when connecting softer materials.

1.Soft nylon tip grips curved or textured surfaces.

2.Nylon set screw conforms to the shape of the mating surface.

3.Best for applications requiring secure fastening without damaging the mating surface.

4.Useful for round shafts and uneven or angled surfaces.

1.Installation minimizes surface damage at the contact point.

2.A minimal contact zone facilitates fine-tuning without the risk of the screw coming loose.

3.Oval set screws are perfect for tasks that require frequent adjustments.

1.The serrated edges of knurl cup set screws grip the surface, minimizing loosening from vibrations.

2.They cannot be reused because the knurl's cutting edges deflect when screwed down.

3.Suitable for woodworking and joinery tasks as well.

1.Flat set screws distribute pressure evenly but have limited contact with the target surface, resulting in less grip.

2.Suitable for use with thin walls or soft materials.

3.For applications needing regular adjustments.
