  • Set Screws keep parts from turning relative to a shaft
  • Brass is suitable where corrosion resistance is a primary consideration
  • Do not have an external head
  • Drive system is a hexagon-shaped hole
  • Coarse threads are better for brittle materials, and will assemble and disassemble more quickly than fine threads
Set Screws are often used for holding a pulley, gear, or other parts from turning relative to a shaft.

Brass is rust proof, corrosion resistant and polishes to a rich, golden color. Brass is easily soldered and brazed and accepts plating readily. The typical composition is 70% Copper and 30% Zinc. Strength increases with a higher percentage of Zinc.

Hex socket drive systems are driven by hex wrenches or power tools with hexagonal bits. Cup Point is the most common point type, with good holding capability.

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 threads are better when working with brittle materials; they are sturdier and are easier to thread and unthread compared to fine. Coarse threading also allows for thicker coatings and platings.
