3/8-24 x 3 1960 Series Alloy Steel Socket Head Cap Screw with Nylon Insert is a socket-driven cap screw for assemblies that need a built-in prevailing-torque feature. Its nylon insert creates a frictional locking action in the threaded joint while preserving top-side internal hex drive access for installation.

In packaging machinery, conveyor equipment, and production cells, the internal hex drive allows compact tool access while the alloy steel body keeps the product aligned with drawings that specify this material. Selection should account for joint geometry, thread engagement, installation access, and whether a nylon insert is appropriate for the service environment.

Cold Headers provides catalog depth for specialty socket fasteners and helps purchasers identify the correct alloy steel nylon insert configuration.
