6-32 x 1 Cup Point 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is a headless socket set screw for compact shaft and component retention. The point focuses contact at the work surface, and the pellet creates prevailing torque after the screw is driven into the tapped hole. 18-8 stainless steel is commonly selected for clean appearance, general corrosion resistance, and ordinary moisture exposure.
In food and beverage machinery adjustments, changeover stops, and equipment guards, the internal hex drive allows adjustment from the end of the tapped hole. If shaft protection matters more than cup-point bite, Nylon and Brass Tip 18-8 Socket Set Screws solve a different problem than nylon inserts.
Cold Headers has supplied specialty socket fasteners since 1962 and helps confirm exact set screw sizes for drawings and repairs. Review the thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and set-screw pellet location before matching the part to a service record or drawing.
