3/8-16 x 5/8 Flat Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is suited to adjustable collars, stops, and hubs where the setting may be loosened and reset. Flat point geometry favors surface protection and repeatable adjustment rather than maximum bite into the mating part. Use the heat-treated alloy steel body with the nylon locking pellet where the application calls for mechanical fastening rather than stainless material.

Drive collars and light hub assemblies may specify this style when shaft protection matters more than a point bite.

In-house pellet installation supports uncommon flat point nylon-insert requirements when a standard plain screw is not enough. 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.
