5/16-24 x 1/4 Brass Cup Point Socket Set Screw is a Brass Cup Point Socket Set Screw used when a headless internal-hex fastener is specified for retaining or positioning a component.
In shaft collars, hubs, and control components, this screw is often selected where a headless fastener secures a part without external head clearance. The socket drive helps maintenance and assembly teams install or remove the fastener without needing side clearance around a head.
Selection should account for mating material, drive access, conductivity requirements, environmental exposure, and whether localized point contact is acceptable. This 5/16-24 x 1/4 size gives buyers a precise callout for ordering. It can fit electrical equipment, controls, instrumentation, fixtures, panels, and light-duty machinery when brass is specified. 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.
