5/16-24 x 2 1/2 1960 Series 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Head Cap Screw with Nylon Insert gives machine builders a corrosion-resistant socket cap screw with an integral nylon insert. Its locking element supports service where a standard all-metal cap screw may need an added thread-locking feature.
This size is often reviewed for pump skids, utility frames, and serviceable covers when a stainless cap screw must retain a familiar socket head form. The nylon element gives the joint a locking feature, but it also limits service temperature compared with an all-metal socket screw.
When chloride or saltwater exposure controls material selection, ask about 316 stainless nylon-insert cap screws as a non-catalog request. Since 1962, Cold Headers has helped buyers locate specialty socket fasteners for production, repair, and distributor requirements. The 1960 Series name identifies the modern ASME B18.3 head-proportion standard for socket head cap screws, successor to the older 1936 series, not a year of manufacture.
