When a maintenance list or drawing calls for a brass cup point set screw, 5/16-24 x 1/8 Brass Cup Point Socket Set Screw provides a clear product callout for purchasing and replacement work.
It is commonly used in maintenance repairs, control hardware, and positioning components, where the fastener is driven through the threaded component. 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 5/16-24 thread, 1/8 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. This point style is intended for applications where localized contact is part of the retaining method, not for assemblies that require a nonmarking tip. Cold Headers helps match set screw thread, length, point style, material, and socket drive details for industrial purchasing and repair work.
