Product Name:DIN916 Set Screw
DiameterThe diameter of a DIN 916 set screw refers to the measurement across the widest point of the screw’s threaded portion. It is typically specified using the metric system, such as M3, M4, M5, etc. The diameter determines the size of the threaded hole into which the set screw will be inserted and tightened.
LengthThe length of a DIN 916 set screw indicates how far it extends when fully threaded into a mating component or surface. Lengths can vary depending on the specific application and requirements, ranging from a few millimeters to several tens of millimeters. The length specification is crucial for ensuring proper engagement and secure fastening of components.

Dimension Chart of DIN916 Set Screw:

1. Thread Diameter (d): The thread diameter of a DIN 916 set screw refers to the main diameter of its threads, typically measured in millimeters.

2. Thread Pitch (p): Thread pitch indicates the distance between threads on the screw and is measured in millimeters. It is a crucial dimension for DIN 913 set screws.

3. Hex Key Size (Across Flats) (s): The set screw features an internal hexagon socket for tightening with a hex key or wrench. Hex key size (across flats) is the distance between two parallel hexagonal sides of this socket.

4. Hex Key Depth (t): Hex key depth refers to the depth of the internal hexagon socket, representing the maximum depth a hex key can be inserted into the set screw.

5. Set Screw Length (L): This is the measurement from the bottom of the set screw (or from the end of the threads, in the case of headless set screws) to the end of the threads. It determines how deeply the screw can be threaded into a tapped hole or onto a shaft.

6. Diameter of a dog point (dp): refers to the width or thickness of the cylindrical protrusion on the end of a set screw or similar fastener. In the context of fasteners like set screws, the dog point is a specific type of extended tip designed for easy alignment and initial positioning. The diameter of the dog point is a critical measurement, ensuring proper fit and engagement with the mating surface.

7.The height of the dog point (z): The height of the dog point on a DIN 915 set screw refers to the measurement of the cylindrical protrusion extending from the end of the screw. This dimension is crucial as it determines how far the dog point extends beyond the threaded portion. The height is essential for applications where the set screw is used to locate or align components, providing a reference point.

When L≤L0, it is short screw; When L > L0, it is a long screw.
