Swivel-Tip Set Screws
The tip is narrow to pass through threaded holes. As you tighten these set screws, a self-aligning tip swivels to make contact against angled and uneven surfaces. It stops rotating on contact to minimize damage to the contact surface. A black-oxide finish provides corrosion resistance in dry environments. Length listed is the overall length.

Large-Diameter Swivel-Tip Set Screws
A wide tip provides more gripping power than standard swivel-tip set screws. To use, remove the tip, thread the screw through the hole, and attach the tip on the other side. The tip swivels and tilts in all directions to apply uniform pressure to angled and uneven surfaces. It stops rotating on contact to minimize damage to the contact surface. A black-oxide finish provides corrosion resistance in dry environments. Length listed is the overall length. Optional extra-large steel tips offer more gripping strength. Optional plastic tips are soft, nonmarring, and made of acetal.
