Alloy Steel Set Screw, Hex Socket Drive, Brass Tip, #8-32, 3/8" Length (Pack of 1)

Product Description
Alloy Steel is steel that has been alloyed with other materials to improve overall physical properties. Steels are designated by a 4 number SAE Steel grade. Tensile strength ranges for the alloys typically used in these fasteners range from 170,000 to 180,000 psi (pounds per square inch), making these amongst the strongest of materials. The last 2 digits identify the percentage of carbon for the alloy (in hundredths). The first two digits indicate the primary materials used to form the steel. Coarse threads are better when working with brittle materials; they are sturdier and are easier to thread and unthread compared to fine. Set Screws are often used for holding a pulley, gear, or other parts from turning relative to a shaft. Unlike plastic tips, Brass Tips allow high clamping loads and will not slip even at elevated temperatures. A threaded fastener's size name includes information about the major external diameter, followed by the threads per inch, which indicates if it is coarse or fine. Coarse threading also allows for thicker coatings and platings. Hex socket drive systems are driven by hex wrenches or power tools with hexagonal bits.
