Our set screws are durable and versatile for any application. Custom design screws are available. Our highly skilled team will work closely with customers to provide solutions.
Applications: Set screws are used in one component that has to be fixed within another one without any protrusions which could decrease the efficiency of the equipment. For example, fastening a gear and shaft assembly with a regular hex bolt might be inefficient as the hex head might cause inconveniences to the smooth operation of the assembly. In such situations, where protrusions are not desired, a set screw can effectively fasten the components together without interfering with the operations. Set Screws are widely used in machinery and equipment, civil hardware, and compact instruments, such as gear fixing, cam fixing, household door handle, hardware faucet, towel rack, etc.
