The Multiquip 12969-008 is a genuine OEM Socket Set Screw 5/16-18 designed for Multiquip masonry saws across the MS18E, MS20E, MS18H5.5, MS18H8, MS20H, MS30H, and MS30E model lines. As an authentic Multiquip OEM part, the part meets the exact dimensional and material specifications required for proper installation and secure retention.

Keeping the right fastener on hand helps you get your masonry saw back in service quickly and correctly.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fastener Grade — Manufactured to Multiquip's specified thread class and hardness for a 5/16-18 socket set screw, ensuring the holding force and torque capacity the application demands.
- Hex Socket Drive — Internal hex socket accepts a standard Allen key for clean, direct installation in tight or recessed locations common on masonry saw assemblies.
- Broad MS-Series Compatibility — Fits MS18E, MS20E, MS18H5.5, MS18H8, MS20H, MS30H, and MS30E Multiquip masonry saws, covering both electric- and gasoline-powered variants in the lineup.
- Secure Component Retention — A correctly torqued set screw locks rotating or sliding components firmly in place; a worn or missing screw can allow shaft slippage, misalignment, or accelerated wear on surrounding parts.
- Blade and Drive System Safety — On a masonry saw, fastener integrity in the drive assembly is directly linked to blade control; using the correct OEM-spec hardware supports safe, controlled cutting operation.
A socket set screw is a headless threaded fastener tightened entirely by its internal hex socket, allowing it to seat flush or below the surface of a component. On masonry saws, set screws are commonly used to secure pulleys, collars, and drive components to shafts, holding them in a fixed rotational position under load. When a set screw loosens, strips, or goes missing, the component it secures can shift or spin freely on the shaft, leading to vibration, noise, uneven blade performance, or damage to adjacent parts.
