HEX HEAD SET SCREWS

​Hexagon head set screws are a subset of the hexagon head bolt, their distinguishing feature being that they are fully threaded with no plain shank present. They are often used in applications where they are threaded directly into something containing a matching pre-threaded hole such as a machinery component. The hex head set screw is designed to be tightened/removed with a suitably fitted wrench, spanner, socket or other hex driver. 

First Choice Industrial has one of Australia’s largest ranges of hex set screws available, stocking or having access to a number of finishes including plain or black, brass, nylon, zinc plated, hot dipped galvanised, 304 (A2 70) and 316 (A4 70) stainless steel. Metric coarse and metric fine threads come in commercial class 4.6 as well as various high tensile classes such as class 8.8, class 10.9 and class 12.9. Unified threads in both coarse UNC and fine UNF are available in both grade 5 and grade 8.
