10-24 x 7/16 Flat Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is a heat-treated alloy steel flat point socket set screw with a nylon insert for prevailing torque. Because the point does not dig in by design, final holding action depends on the surface condition, load, and seating area. Use the heat-treated alloy steel body with the nylon locking pellet where the application calls for mechanical fastening rather than stainless material.
Large 5/8 flat point nylon-insert sizes support heavier collars and hubs where the print still calls for shaft-friendly contact. ASME B18.3 places flat point diameter in a qualitative band of about 0.55-0.62 times nominal screw diameter, so confirm the mating seat rather than substituting a sharp point.
Cold Headers focuses on exact-size socket fastener sourcing for production, repair, and plant maintenance needs. Check thread size, length, socket size, pellet dimensions, shaft-flat condition, and surface-marking tolerance before substitution.
