Cup Point Slotted Set Screws

Cup point slotted set screws are headless threaded fasteners designed to secure collars, hubs, gears, pulleys, knobs, handles, and other shaft-mounted components. The slotted drive allows installation with a conventional flat-blade screwdriver, while the recessed cup point creates localized rim contact against the mating surface to help secure assembled components.

Cup point geometry is commonly selected where concentrated holding contact is desired between the set screw and the mating shaft or component. Depending on the mating material and installation conditions, the cup point may leave a witness mark or shallow indentation on the contacted surface. Slotted set screws are frequently specified for machinery, maintenance repairs, replacement assemblies, adjustment mechanisms, instrumentation, power transmission components, and equipment where slotted-drive fasteners are preferred or required.

Cold Headers supplies cup point slotted set screws in a broad range of inch thread sizes and lengths, including uncommon and difficult-to-source configurations. Individual product pages provide verified thread size, screw length, nominal diameter, point style, slot dimensions where applicable, and other engineering information to help engineers and purchasing professionals specify the correct fastener.

Why Choose a Cup Point Slotted Set Screw?

  • Cup point geometry: Creates localized rim contact with the mating surface.
  • Slotted drive: Designed for installation using a standard flat-blade screwdriver.
  • Headless construction: Installs flush with or below the surrounding component surface.
  • Industrial applications: Commonly used on collars, hubs, pulleys, gears, knobs, and shaft-mounted components.
  • Verified dimensions: Product pages include thread size, screw length, nominal diameter, and other engineering data where available.

Selecting the Correct Cup Point Slotted Set Screw

Begin by confirming the required thread size and screw length. Review the slot size, available installation access, mating material, required holding action, and acceptable surface marking before selecting a fastener. Cup point slotted set screws should not be substituted automatically for flat point, cone point, oval point, dog point, or knurled cup point designs because each point geometry creates a different contact condition.

Cold Headers Inc. has supplied specialty industrial fasteners since 1962. Our catalog helps engineers, distributors, maintenance teams, and purchasing professionals locate exact sizes, uncommon lengths, and difficult-to-find slotted set screws without unsupported inventory claims.
