3/8-24 x 5/8 Half Dog Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert combines internal hex access, a half dog locating stub, and a nylon locking pellet in one headless fastener. Compared with a longer full dog projection, the half dog form can work with a shallower receiving hole and thinner surrounding material.

Repair assemblies with thin hub walls can favor the half dog form when a shallower receiving feature is available. Check mating feature, hex access, screw length, and marking tolerance. This size is a hard-to-find nylon-insert half dog option, so keep the exact thread and length together when requesting a quote.

When a print calls for a locating stub plus nylon thread drag, Cold Headers can quote the matching catalog item by exact size. Review insert dimensions, hex key size, and ASME B18.3 before ordering this alloy steel socket set screw.
