5/8-11 x 7/16 Flat Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is built for no-mark clamping where a broad flat face bears against the shaft instead of biting into it. The flat point clamps by friction, so it is commonly chosen for shafts that should not be intentionally marked by a biting point. Use the heat-treated alloy steel body with the nylon locking pellet where the application calls for mechanical fastening rather than stainless material.

Packaging equipment and indexing hardware may use the nylon insert where vibration can work against thread friction.

Large 5/8 flat point locking set screws are not always easy to source through general-line channels. Cold Headers can quote the requested flat point nylon-insert configuration without changing the point style to a biting design. Check size, socket, pellet dimensions, and surface-marking tolerance before substitution.
