5-44 x 1/2 Cup Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is specified when the drawing calls for alloy steel, a cup point, and a nylon locking pellet. Use the nylon-insert version when a plain cup point needs added thread friction after seating.

Vibratory feeders and screens may require an alloy locking set screw where repeated motion makes thread friction useful. Confirm thread size, length, hex key size, cup point geometry, pellet diameter, and pellet location before substituting another set screw.

Use Cold Headers when the requirement is specific: alloy steel body, cup point, internal hex drive, and nylon insert.
