5/16-18 Hexagon Socket Set Screws Cup Point BS 2470 Black Oxide 45H

Description

5/16-18 Hexagon socket set screws with a cup point, made to BS 2470 standards with a black oxide finish and 45H hardness, are highly durable and versatile fasteners. Ever Hardware provides custom made fasteners and customizable packaging.

1. High Strength and Durability

Constructed from 45H-grade steel, these screws offer exceptional tensile strength and wear resistance. This makes them ideal for high-stress applications in industrial and mechanical settings, where reliability under dynamic loads and vibrations is critical.

2. Cup Point for Secure Grip

The cup-shaped tip ensures a strong, secure grip on the mating surface, effectively resisting loosening under vibration or torque. This feature is especially useful for applications like fastening gears, pulleys, and collars to shafts or other components.

3. Black Oxide Coating

The black oxide finish provides moderate resistance to corrosion and rust, making these screws suitable for indoor or mildly corrosive environments. Additionally, the coating enhances appearance with a sleek, low-reflective finish.

4. Hexagon Socket Drive for Precision

The hex socket design enables precise torque application, ensuring proper tightening without stripping or cam-out. This facilitates efficient installation and adjustment in confined or hard-to-reach spaces.

5. Non-Damaging Fastening

The cup point applies pressure evenly without causing significant damage to the mating surface. This is especially beneficial for components requiring frequent adjustments or where surface integrity is crucial.

6. Affordable and Cost-Effective

Compared to premium materials like stainless steel, black oxide-coated steel screws offer a cost-effective solution while still delivering excellent mechanical performance for a variety of applications.

7. Versatile Applications

BS 2470 set screws are widely used in automotive systems, industrial machinery, and mechanical assemblies, ensuring reliable fastening in applications where secure, non-permanent connections are required.

8. Resistant to Wear and Abrasion

The hardened 45H steel ensures the screws can withstand high friction, repeated use, and mechanical stress without deforming, making them suitable for dynamic environments.

In Summary

5/16-18 Hexagon socket set screws cup point BS 2470 black oxide 45H are a durable, cost-effective choice for secure and adjustable fastening. Their strength, precision, and resistance to wear make them ideal for industrial, mechanical, and automotive applications.
