Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the material grade of this set screw?

The TIMco Set Screw is manufactured from Grade 8.8 carbon steel, indicating high tensile strength.

What does 'Trivalent Chromium (Cr3) Zinc' plating mean?

This is an environmentally friendly plating that provides good corrosion resistance compared to older hexavalent chromium platings.

Is a wrench included with the set screw?

No, a wrench is not included. A 19mm hex socket wrench is required for installation.

Can this set screw be used outdoors?

Yes, the Trivalent Chromium (Cr3) Zinc plating provides corrosion resistance suitable for many outdoor applications, though prolonged exposure to harsh elements should be monitored.

What is the thread type and diameter?

The thread type is Metric, with a diameter of M12.

Does this product come with a nut?

Yes, the product description explicitly states 'Nuts included', meaning it comes with a matching M12 hex nut.

What is the maximum load capacity?

The load capacity depends on the specific application and mating components. However, its Grade 8.8 steel construction signifies high tensile strength suitable for significant loads.

Troubleshooting

Screw does not thread smoothly

Check the M12 tapped hole for debris or cross-threading. Ensure the screw is aligned correctly before applying force.

Stripped hex socket head

Use the correct size 19mm hex socket and ensure it is fully engaged before applying torque. Avoid excessive force if the screw is binding.

Corrosion observed on the surface

The Cr3 zinc plating offers protection, but severe conditions may lead to surface rust. Clean the affected area and consider applying a protective coating if necessary.

Pros and Cons

  • May require specific torque settings to avoid over or under-tightening.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the mating threads of the receiving component are clean and free from debris.
  2. Thread the M12 set screw into the designated hole. Use a 19mm hex socket wrench for tightening.
  3. If using the included hex nut, thread it onto the protruding end of the set screw and tighten to secure the assembly.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with any M12 tapped hole or M12 nut.
  • Suitable for use with materials that can accommodate a 120mm long fastener.

Care:

  • The Trivalent Chromium (Cr3) Zinc plating offers good corrosion resistance. Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or saltwater environments.
  • If the plating is damaged, consider applying a suitable anti-corrosion coating to prevent rust.
