3/8-16 x 1/2 Half Dog Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert identifies the exact thread and length for a half dog point alloy set screw with thread-level locking. This point style is chosen when repeatable angular or axial location matters more than a bite mark on an unprepared shaft.

Tooling plates and inspection fixtures can use this set screw where a prepared slot provides the locating path. Check mating feature, hex access, screw length, and marking tolerance.

When a print calls for a locating stub plus nylon thread drag, Cold Headers can quote the matching catalog item by exact size. Review insert dimensions, hex key size, and ASME B18.3 before ordering this alloy steel socket set screw.
