1/4-28 x 7/16 Oval Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is chosen when an oval point should ride a prepared groove while the nylon insert resists backing out. This point style is useful when the part may be loosened and reset without the deep mark of a biting point. Specify the heat-treated alloy steel body with nylon pellet when the print calls for mechanical set screw hardware, not a stainless substitute.
Automation machinery can use these screws in compact collars, guide blocks, stops, and control components.
Since 1962, Cold Headers has helped buyers distinguish similar socket set screws by point geometry and locking feature. Check thread size, length, socket size, pellet dimensions, groove or seat condition, and surface-marking tolerance before substitution.
