3/8-24 x 1 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is designed for headless fastening locations that need a pointed seat and added thread friction. This double-action layout combines point seating at the shaft with prevailing torque inside the threaded hole. 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.
Packaging machinery and indexing drives can benefit from internal hex access where exposed head clearance is unavailable.
Cold Headers can discuss pelletized set screw needs when a print requires prevailing torque in addition to point engagement. Cold Headers helps industrial buyers keep the point style, drive type, and locking feature aligned with the drawing requirement. Review thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and mating-surface marking tolerance before replacing it with another set screw.
