For set-screw locations near finished shafts or plated components, 3/8-16 x 1 1/4 gives maintenance teams a nylon tipped alloy option with verified tip dimensions.
Typical uses include repeated-adjustment mechanisms, handwheel hubs, knobs, and handles that may be loosened during maintenance. The 3A thread fit keeps the screw in the precision set-screw class while the tip changes the way the end contacts the part. Nylon is the softer contact choice for delicate finishes and repeated adjustment.
The Chicago tip-installation service lets Cold Headers support both catalog tipped screws and related cap screw tipping work. For humid or washdown service, compare the Nylon and Brass Tip 18-8 Stainless Socket Set Screws family; this page remains the alloy-body route.
