ANSI B18.3 Hex Socket Set Screws, Dog Point

Documents

Shipments are backed by Mill Test Certificate (MTC), Dimensional Report, Salt Spray Test Report on request, with full batch traceability from raw material to finished product. Quality management follows the owner-confirmed compliance list: ISO 9001:2015, RoHS, REACH. Exact document sets are confirmed on the order.

Quotation

• The fastener family (ANSI B18.3 Hex Socket Set Screws, Dog Point) plus the standard designation from your drawing — DIN / ISO / JIS / ASTM / ANSI, or a drawing for custom parts.
• Size (diameter and length), thread type (metric or inch), property class or grade, and coating or finish.
• Quantity per size and your target delivery date.
• Destination country, and any required documents (for example a mill test certificate) so the quote includes them.

Sample & supply

Minimum order quantity is 10,000 pieces. Stock items run 3–7 days. Quantities or variants outside the standard range are confirmed at quotation.

Storage & shipping

Parts are packed for export and shipped factory-direct to buyers in Europe, Asia, the Americas and the Middle East. Store fasteners dry and protected until installation, and keep coated parts in their packaging until use; specific packing and preservation requirements can be stated on the order and confirmed at quotation.

Does the dog point need a special hole, and what happens without one?

It needs a hole to work as designed: a plain-drilled, slightly clearance-sized seat of at least the pilot diameter d p and at least the projection z deep, in the shaft. With the hole, the pilot is a positive lock — repeatable angular positioning, vibration resistance, and a screw that can be removed and re-installed without losing its register. Without the hole, a dog point set screw behaves badly: the pilot bears on a narrow annulus of thread crest, the contact is poor metal on metal, and the holding torque collapses to a fraction of what the same screw achieves seated — plus the small pilot can burr a soft shaft. So the specification is a pair, not a single line: call the screw and the drilled seat together, and check the pilot diameter limits (read 1/2 in: 0.344/0.334 in) against the drill size actually used — an oversized hole lets the pilot wobble and gives back the register the point exists to provide.

What is the MOQ and lead time for these screws?

Minimum order quantity is 10,000 pieces per item. Stocked sizes ship in 3–7 days; non-stock diameters, lengths or finishes are quoted with a confirmed schedule. Common sizes in this designation are widely stocked — confirm the exact schedule against quantity and size mix at quotation.
