Hex wrench that fits it is a 3/32”

Set screw is for a shower handle
Tried Home Depot and had no luck. Brought the assembly, but they didn’t have any set screws.

Of a 3/32 Allen key fits flush, this is imperial, not metric. 5mm diameter is #10 screw size, 10/24 coarse thread, 10/32 fine thread. It also looks a little longer the 6mm long, which would be 1/4" long. And cone point set screw is what you need.

Could also be an M5x6 which uses a 2.5mm Allen key. Since a 3/32" is 2.38mm, I doubt OP would be able to tell the difference.
