Hello Magento Friends,

In Default Magento 2, the “Default” option is selected for the attribute set field when you create a new product. Checkout below image

Let’s get started,

Steps to Set Product Custom Attribute Set as Default in Magento 2:

Step 1: Create di.xml at the below path

app\code\Vendor\Extension\etc\adminhtml

And add the following code

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
    <preference for="Magento\Catalog\Ui\DataProvider\Product\Form\Modifier\AttributeSet" type="Vendor\Extension\Ui\DataProvider\Product\Form\Modifier\AttributeSet"></preference>
</config>

Step 2: Create AttributeSet.php in the following path

Vendor\Extension\Ui\DataProvider\Product\Form\Modifier

And add the code as follows

<?php

namespace Vendor\Extension\Ui\DataProvider\Product\Form\Modifier;

class AttributeSet extends \Magento\Catalog\Ui\DataProvider\Product\Form\Modifier\AttributeSet
{
    public function modifyData(array $data)
    {
	// 4 is default attribute set id in my case
        if($this->locator->getProduct()->getAttributeSetId() ==4){ 
	// Replace it with your custom attribute set id whatever you want to set
            $attributesetId=10; 
        }else{
          //This is for already created product we are getting previously saved value	
            $attributesetId=$this->locator->getProduct()->getAttributeSetId(); 
        }

        return array_replace_recursive(
            $data,
            [
                $this->locator->getProduct()->getId() => [
                    self::DATA_SOURCE_DEFAULT => [
                        'attribute_set_id' => $attributesetId
                    ],
                ]
            ]
        );
