Designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts in engineering, construction, and maintenance, Metalmate High Tensile Set Screws offer exceptional structural integrity for heavy-duty fastening tasks. These Grade 8.8 steel screws provide superior tensile strength and reliability, though their zinc-plated finish is intended primarily for indoor or sheltered environments rather than harsh, long-term outdoor exposure without additional protection.

Grade 8.8 denotes the tensile strength of the steel; the first 8 indicates a nominal tensile strength of 800 MPa, and the second digit indicates the yield strength is 80% of the tensile strength.
Yes, as they are manufactured to DIN 933 standards, they are fully threaded from the head to the tip.
The zinc plating provides basic corrosion resistance, but they are best used in sheltered or dry environments to prevent rust over time.
This is an M10 bolt, meaning the thread diameter is 10mm, and the length from the underside of the head to the tip is 40mm.
The box contains 100 set screws; nuts are typically sold separately depending on your specific project needs.
Check for debris or cross-threading; ensure the tap size matches the M10 specification exactly.
Ensure the socket or wrench is not worn and is the correct metric size for an M10 head.
Clean the affected area and apply a light coating of machine oil or a corrosion inhibitor spray.
To ensure maximum holding power, always use an appropriately sized wrench or socket that fits the M10 head snugly to prevent rounding. When fastening into tapped holes, ensure the threads are clean and free of debris. For long-term maintenance, keep the bolts in a dry environment to prolong the efficacy of the zinc coating. If installing in an area prone to vibration, consider using a thread-locking compound or a spring washer to prevent the screw from loosening over time.
