In the world of industrial applications, choosing the right fasteners is critical to ensuring long-term performance and safety. Whether you’re assembling machinery, securing components, or manufacturing precision tools, socket shoulder screws and set screws are essential. At G-Fast, we supply a full range of USA-made fasteners, including socket set screws, dog point set screws, stainless steel set screws, and alloy steel set screws. We serve clients in New York, New Jersey, Chicago, and nationwide.
What Are Socket Shoulder Screws?
Socket shoulder screws, also known as shoulder bolts or stripper bolts, are fasteners with an unthreaded shoulder under the head and threaded body. They’re designed for applications where the shoulder acts as a shaft or pivot point.
Applications:
-
Mechanical assemblies
-
Die fixtures
-
Automotive components
-
Motion control systems
The precision ground shoulder on a socket shoulder screw allows for smooth rotational or sliding movement, making them ideal for moving parts. We manufacture them in various materials and sizes to suit heavy-duty and fine-tolerance applications.
Key Features:
-
Cylindrical shoulder for accurate alignment
-
Hex socket head for easy installation
-
Available in stainless steel and alloy steel
At G-Fast, our socket shoulder screws are engineered and made in the USA to meet rigorous quality standards. Whether you’re in New Jersey building machines or in Chicago running production lines, we deliver the fasteners you can rely on.
Socket Set Screws: Secure and Compact
Socket set screws are headless screws designed to secure objects together within or against another object, often without the need for a nut. They are tightened using an internal hex drive.
Common Use Cases:
-
Securing pulleys and gears to shafts
-
Positioning and locking components in place
-
Electronics and precision instruments
We supply socket set screws in multiple tip styles and materials to handle everything from high-torque applications to delicate adjustments.
Available Tip Styles:
-
Flat point
-
Cup point
-
Dog point set screws (ideal for permanent settings)
As a leading supplier in New York and across the USA, we offer full customization on thread length, material type, and coating for your unique project needs.
Dog Point Set Screws for Fixed Positioning
Among the different types of set screws, dog point set screws are ideal when permanent positioning or alignment is needed. These screws feature a flat tip (the “dog”) that fits into a hole or slot to prevent movement.
Benefits:
-
Prevents damage to the surface
-
Maintains fixed alignment
-
Often used in assemblies that need precise, consistent placement
These are often used in molds, tooling, and jigs. G-Fast provides dog point set screws in both stainless steel and alloy steel to suit demanding environments.
Stainless Steel Set Screws: Corrosion Resistance Built In
Stainless steel set screws are the go-to choice when corrosion resistance is a concern. These fasteners are ideal for applications exposed to moisture, chemicals, or extreme temperatures.
Ideal For:
-
Food and beverage manufacturing
-
Marine equipment
-
Medical devices
-
Outdoor installations
At G-Fast, we stock 18-8 and 316-grade stainless steel set screws for maximum protection and strength. We ship to facilities across New York, New Jersey, and the entire USA.
Alloy Steel Set Screws: Strength Under Pressure
When strength and durability are top priorities, alloy steel set screws are a reliable solution. These fasteners are heat-treated and have high tensile strength, making them perfect for high-stress applications.
Common Uses:
-
Heavy machinery
-
Aerospace components
-
Automotive engines
Our alloy steel set screws are manufactured to tight tolerances and can be treated with black oxide or phosphate coatings for additional protection.
