1/2-13 x 3/4 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is the alloy steel nylon-insert version of a cone point socket set screw for compact machine assemblies. For best seating, a shallow drilled dimple can help the point center consistently in the intended position. 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.
OEM assemblies with spotted shafts use cone points to separate the locating function from ordinary clamp screws. The nylon element limits service temperature compared with an all-metal set screw, so review heat exposure before specifying it.
For uncommon set screw lengths, Cold Headers can quote the requested configuration without substituting a different point geometry. Review thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and mating-surface marking tolerance before replacing it with another set screw.
