For assemblies that call for a brass set screw by exact size, 1/2-20 x 1 Brass Cup Point Socket Set Screw identifies the required material, cup point geometry, thread, and length.
It is commonly used in communication equipment, decorative hardware, and replacement assemblies, where appearance and nonferrous construction may matter. The internal hex drive allows socket-wrench access from the threaded hole, which is useful when surrounding components leave little room for external wrenching.
Review the 1/2-20 thread, 1 in. length, socket size, cup point diameter, mating surface, and material requirements before specifying the item. Confirm that point contact, brass material, and service conditions fit the application. Brass is often selected for nonferrous construction, electrical conductivity, general corrosion resistance, and distinctive appearance. The cup point creates rim-focused contact that may help resist relative movement when the screw, mating material, and installation conditions are appropriate. Cold Headers supports exact-size sourcing for brass socket set screws, including uncommon lengths and replacement requirements.
