3/8-16 x 7/16 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is used when the set screw must bear into a drilled dimple instead of relying only on surface pressure. This double-action layout combines point seating at the shaft with prevailing torque inside the threaded hole. Use this alloy steel body with the nylon locking pellet where the drawing calls for a mechanical set screw, not a corrosion-focused stainless part.
Automation equipment may use this screw in compact hubs, guide collars, and actuator-linked parts with limited outside clearance.
Cold Headers installs nylon locking pellets in-house at its Chicago facility for this cone point set screw family. Cold Headers supports exact-size and hard-to-find cone point nylon-insert sourcing for industrial repair, replacement, and production requirements. Review thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and mating-surface marking tolerance before replacing it with another set screw.
