ABSTRACT:
In certain applications, such as solderless cable connectors, a set screw is used to provide the connection between two or more current conductors. The set screw should be tightened to no more than a predetermined tightening torque. This is automatically accomplished by providing a section along the length of the set screw that is weakened to a predetermined extent, which causes the screw to break at the section upon attainment of the predetermined tightening torque. Both portions of the separated screw include means for being engaged for tightening or loosening the screw.
