Black Oxide Hex Socket Flat Point Set Screw
Black oxide hex socket flat point set screw is a precision fastening component designed for secure positioning, torque transmission, and vibration-resistant locking in mechanical assemblies. The black oxide hex socket flat point set screw features an internal hex drive and flat point tip, providing reliable fastening without damaging the contact surface. It is widely used in machinery equipment, transmission systems, automation devices, tooling fixtures, and industrial assemblies where repeated adjustment and accurate positioning are required.
The black oxide hex socket flat point set screw combines the strength of carbon steel with a black oxide finish that enhances surface protection, reduces light reflection, and provides a clean industrial appearance.
Product Overview
The black oxide hex socket flat point set screw is engineered to secure rotating or stationary components such as shafts, collars, gears, pulleys, and couplings. Unlike cone point set screws, the flat point design distributes pressure over a larger contact area, minimizing surface indentation while maintaining stable holding force.
This black oxide hex socket flat point set screw is ideal for applications requiring repeated assembly and disassembly without damaging the mating surface. The internal hex drive allows higher tightening torque and reduces the risk of drive stripping.
As a widely used industrial fastener, it delivers dependable performance across precision mechanical systems and OEM equipment.

FAQ
1. What is a flat point set screw used for?
It is used to position and secure components while minimizing damage to the mating surface.
2. What is the difference between a flat point and a cone point set screw?
A flat point distributes pressure across a larger area, while a cone point penetrates the surface for stronger holding force.
3. What is the purpose of the black oxide finish?
It improves appearance, provides light corrosion resistance, and reduces surface reflection.
4. Can this set screw be reused?
Yes. If the threads and hex socket remain undamaged, it can be reused in most applications.
5. Can Flybear manufacture custom sizes or materials?
Yes. We provide OEM and ODM services for customized dimensions, materials, strength grades, and surface treatments.
