Hex Set Screws - Metric - YBZP

Hexagon set screws, or hex sets to give them their common name, are available in both metric and imperial thread sizes in a wide range of finishes. A set screw differs from a bolt in that the shank is threaded all the way from the tip to the head.

Metric is the most common thread type in production today. Usually specified as M then a number x another number. This signifies the thread diameter and the length of the fastener.

A YBZP or yellow bright zinc plated fastener is one which has a thin coating of yellow coloured zinc added during production. This protective coating adds durability by protecting the product against rust or oxidisation.
