6-32 x 1/4 Oval Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert gives purchasing teams a specific alloy steel oval point nylon-insert size for replacement work. 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.
Machine rebuilds use this family when the service record calls for alloy steel, an oval point, and a nylon insert. Half Dog Point Alloy Set Screws with Nylon Insert are the comparison when the locating feature is a drilled hole.
Cold Headers installs nylon locking pellets in-house at its Chicago facility for this oval point set screw family. Cold Headers can help identify the correct rounded-point alloy set screw when a drawing calls out a nylon insert. Check thread size, length, socket size, pellet dimensions, groove or seat condition, and surface-marking tolerance before substitution.
