3/8-24 x 7/8 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert pairs cone-point shaft engagement with a nylon locking pellet in a compact internal-hex set screw. 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.
Automation equipment may use this screw in compact hubs, guide collars, and actuator-linked parts with limited outside clearance.
Since 1962, the Cold Headers catalog has focused on socket products that are easy to misidentify without careful size language. Review thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and mating-surface marking tolerance before replacing it with another set screw. The internal hex recess also keeps installation access compact when the screw is recessed in a hub or collar.
