10-32 x 3/8 Oval Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert uses a rounded oval point to reduce marking while the insert adds friction in the mating thread. Use this style where the assembly needs rounded contact and a separate thread-locking feature. Specify the heat-treated alloy steel body with nylon pellet when the print calls for mechanical set screw hardware, not a stainless substitute.
Typical uses include adjustment collars that are repositioned between production runs without changing the basic hardware.
For replacement work, Cold Headers keeps the thread, length, alloy material, rounded point, and insert requirement together. Check thread size, length, socket size, pellet dimensions, groove or seat condition, and surface-marking tolerance before substitution. Socket-key access remains compact when the screw sits below the outside surface of a collar or hub.
