1/2-13 x 1 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is built for applications where a pointed set screw should center in a prepared spot and stay loaded by pellet friction. A spotted shaft gives the point a defined pocket, so the set screw can locate more positively during installation. Use this alloy steel body with the nylon locking pellet where the drawing calls for a mechanical set screw, not a corrosion-focused stainless part.
Conveyor drive components may use this family in collars, hubs, and adjustments where compact thread locking is useful.
Since 1962, the Cold Headers catalog has focused on socket products that are easy to misidentify without careful size language. Review thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and mating-surface marking tolerance before replacing it with another set screw.
