Abstract

Set screws are used to hold one object within another object. Set screws pass through a hole in the outer object and are tightened against the inner object. Set screws prevent the inner object from moving relative to the outer object. Motors contain set screws. Constant vibration within motors may cause set screws to become loose. Loose set screws cannot hold the motor together. Loose set screws can prevent motors from functioning properly. Set screws may be held in place using an adhesive. Loctite, superglue, and nail polish can be used as adhesives.
