When a maintenance list or drawing calls for a brass cup point set screw, 5/16-24 x 5/8 Brass Cup Point Socket Set Screw provides a clear product callout for purchasing and replacement work.
In couplings, pulleys, and sprockets, this screw is often selected where localized contact helps position a component on a shaft. 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 5/8 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. Buyers should review the shaft or component surface condition, available drive access, electrical requirements, and required holding action before selecting this item. Cold Headers is a useful source when the part number, thread, point style, brass material, or length is difficult to locate through standard catalog channels.
