3/8-24 x 7/16 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert fits cone-point set screw locations where the part drawing calls for alloy steel body construction and a locking insert. A spotted shaft gives the point a defined pocket, so the set screw can locate more positively during installation. 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.
Machine controls, handles, and knobs can use cone point set screws when the control shaft is intentionally prepared for the point.
Cold Headers has worked with specialty socket fasteners since 1962 and supports exact thread-and-length identification for repair and production work. Review thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and mating-surface marking tolerance before replacing it with another set screw.
