The M3 x 3mm Grub screw is3mm in diameterand3mm long.Made fromMild Steelmaterial the grub screw has ablack oxide finishthat will protect it from any sort of corrosion.
A grub screw is generally used to secure an item against another item.It is commonly usedas a locking device, particularly on custom modified Gears, pillow ball bearings, taper locking bushes, pulleys or adjusting rings.
Grub Screws are designed with ahexagonal internal drivein the head, allowing them to be tightened and loosened with anAllenkey.
Precision Engineering for Secure FasteningEngineered to strict metric standards, the M3 x 3mm Grub Screw provides robust and reliable fastening in compact assemblies. Its headless design allows for a flush finish, making it suitable where space optimization and discrete installation are critical. The precision threading and hardness conform to MS standards, ensuring consistent performance in demanding applications.
Black Oxide Finish for Corrosion ResistanceThe black oxide coating not only offers the screw a sleek, black appearance but also enhances its resistance to mild corrosion. This protective layer makes the grub screw suitable for indoor machinery, electronic devices, and assemblies exposed to moderate environmental conditions. It helps extend the components lifespan while maintaining functional integrity.
FAQs of M3 X 3mm Grub Screw MS Black oxide (Dia. 3mm, Length 3mm):
Q: How is the M3 x 3mm grub screw installed?
A: The M3 x 3mm grub screw is installed using a hex socket drive, commonly known as an Allen key. Simply insert the Allen key into the socket and turn it to secure the screw into the pre-threaded hole until it is flush with or below the surface.
Q: What are the primary applications of this grub screw?
A: This grub screw is primarily used in mechanical assemblies, electronic devices, and precision equipment where components need to be securely fastened without protruding heads, ensuring smooth operation and a clean finish.
Q: When should I use a grub screw instead of a standard screw?
A: You should use a grub screw when the fastened component requires a headless fixing for a flush appearance, or when there is limited space above the assembled parts, such as in gears, pulleys, and couplings.
Q: Where can this grub screw be sourced in India?
A: The M3 x 3mm grub screw in black oxide finish is supplied by various manufacturers, service providers, and suppliers across India. Bulk or packet packaging options are typically available for industrial or commercial use.
Q: What is the process involved in manufacturing this grub screw?
A: The grub screw is produced by machining mild steel to precise metric thread dimensions, followed by heat treatment to meet hardness standards. It then undergoes black oxide finishing, which provides its corrosion resistance and characteristic black color.
Q: How does the black oxide finish benefit the screw?
A: The black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance, enhances the screws appearance, and reduces light reflection, making it suitable for electronic and machinery applications where aesthetics and performance are important.
Q: What tools are required for the installation and removal of this screw?
A: An Allen key (hex socket wrench) of appropriate size is required for both installation and removal, ensuring easy and secure fastening of the grub screw in mechanical or electronic assemblies.
