8-32 x 2 1960 Series 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Head Cap Screw with Nylon Insert gives machine builders a corrosion-resistant socket cap screw with an integral nylon insert. The pellet presses against the mating thread to provide prevailing torque without changing the socket head geometry.

Typical applications include washdown conveyors, stainless equipment frames, and guarded production machinery, where the exact thread and length help match drawings, service records, and replacement needs. The 18% chromium and 8% nickel austenitic stainless material is used for general corrosion resistance and a clean appearance in ordinary industrial environments.

For rounded exposed heads with the same locking concept, review 18-8 Button Head Socket Cap Screws with Nylon Insert. Cold Headers has supplied specialty socket fasteners since 1962 and helps source exact stainless sizes and uncommon lengths.
