6-32 x 7/16 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is specified where a tapered conical point should nest into a prepared shaft spot while the nylon insert adds prevailing torque. 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.
Pulley hubs and sheaves often use cone points when a prepared seat is available and the setting should not creep in service.
Cold Headers installs nylon locking pellets in-house at its Chicago facility for this cone point set screw family. Cold Headers supports exact-size and hard-to-find cone point nylon-insert sourcing for industrial repair, replacement, and production requirements. Review thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and mating-surface marking tolerance before replacing it with another set screw.
