Brass Set Screws to DIN / ISO · Jamnagar, India

DIN 915 Brass Set Screw (Dog Point)

Hexagon socket grub screw, dog point — machined in brass CW617N to standard and to your drawing.

Home / Products / Standard Parts / Set Screws / DIN 915

A DIN 915 set screw is a headless hexagon-socket grub screw with a dog point — an unthreaded cylindrical pilot tip — that locates into a drilled hole or slot in the mating shaft to set position, prevent rotation or act as a guide pin; it corresponds to ISO 4028. Brassland machines it from free-cutting brass CW617N (CuZn40Pb2) — or lead-free CW724R — to the standard and to your drawing, as part of our brass set-screw programme.

Applications

Typical applications for the DIN 915 dog point set screw include positive location of a component by engaging the dog into a drilled hole, acting as a guide or pilot pin in a slot, keying parts together without thread damage, and adjustable indexing into a machined pocket. All parts are made to order, so length, point detail, plating and certification are tailored to your specification.

Frequently asked questions

What point does a DIN 915 set screw have?

A dog point — a cylindrical unthreaded pilot tip that engages a hole or slot to locate the part positively.

When do I use a dog point vs a cone point?

Dog (DIN 915) locates into a hole or slot for positive position and anti-rotation; cone (DIN 914) bites into a spotted surface for grip.

What is the difference between a full dog and a half dog point?

The length of the cylindrical tip. DIN 915 is the long / full dog; confirm the exact dog length against the drawing.

What hex key fits a DIN 915 M8 set screw?

A 4 mm hexagon key; socket sizes match DIN 913–916.
