10-24 x 5/8 Cup Point 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert supports set-screw installations where no external head should project from the assembly. The cup point may leave a witness mark depending on shaft material and installation conditions, while the insert works in the threaded engagement. Slight magnetism from cold working can be normal for 18-8 stainless, so verify the material requirement against the actual assembly.
For food and beverage machinery adjustments, changeover stops, or equipment guards, check point contact, threaded engagement, and drive access before installation. For 316 stainless with a nylon insert, treat the requirement as a non-catalog request that Cold Headers can quote.
Since 1962, Cold Headers has helped industrial buyers locate specialty socket products and replacement configurations. Review the thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and set-screw pellet location before matching the part to a service record or drawing.
