About
Diameter: 3mm
Bolt Length: 4mm
Material: Mild Steel (Black oxide)
The M3 x 4mm Grub screw is 3mm in diameter and 4mm long. Made from Mild Steel material the grub screw has a black oxide finish that will protect it from any sort of corrosion.
A grub screw is generally used to secure an item against another item. It is commonly used as a locking device, particularly on custom modified Gears, pillow ball bearings, taper locking bushes, pulleys or adjusting rings.
Grub Screws are designed with a hexagonal internal drive in the head, allowing them to be tightened and loosened with an Allen key.
Precision Engineering for Reliable FasteningOur M3 x 4mm Grub Screws are engineered for applications where secure, flush mounting is crucial. These headless screws are widely used to affix components like pulleys, gears, and collars to shafts, providing stability and holding power. The hex drive ensures easy installation and removal, enabling maintenance and adjustments when needed without head protrusion.
Durability with Black Oxide ProtectionThe mild steel base ensures strength while the black oxide finish adds mild corrosion resistance. This protective coating not only enhances durability in standard environments but also gives the fasteners a sleek black appearance. Count on our grub screws for long-lasting performance in mechanical assemblies.
Meets International Quality StandardsCompliant with DIN 916 / ISO 4029, these grub screws are manufactured to precise quality benchmarks. The metric coarse threading ensures compatibility with a wide range of components, supporting dependable performance across various industrial and mechanical settings.
FAQ's of M3 X 4mm Grub Screw MS Black oxide (Dia. 3mm, Length 4mm):
Q: What is the primary usage of the M3 x 4mm Grub Screw?
A: This grub screw is mainly used to secure pulleys, gears, and collars onto shafts, ensuring these components remain tightly fixed during operation.
Q: How do I install the M3 x 4mm Grub Screw?
A: The screw can be installed using a hex (Allen) key that fits the drive socket. Simply align the screw with the threaded hole and tighten it until it is flush and secure.
Q: What corrosion resistance does the black oxide finish provide?
A: The black oxide finish offers mild corrosion resistance, which helps protect the screw from rust and surface wear in standard indoor environments.
Q: Where are these grub screws commonly applied?
A: They're widely used in mechanical assemblies such as machinery, motors, and drive shafts for securing moving parts like pulleys and gear wheels onto shafts.
Q: What are the benefits of a headless (set/grub) screw design?
A: The headless design allows the screw to sit flush with or below the surface, preventing interference with moving parts and providing a clean, unobtrusive fastening solution.
Q: When should I choose a metric coarse thread like this M3 screw?
A: Use metric coarse threads in applications needing higher tolerance for wear, easier assembly, and a strong hold in softer materials or pre-tapped holes.
Q: What standards do these screws comply with?
A: They are manufactured in accordance with DIN 916 and ISO 4029 standards, ensuring quality and compatibility with other metric fasteners.
