8-32 x 1/4 Half Dog Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert uses half dog point geometry for registered alignment in equipment that cannot rely on a plain shaft bite. Compared with a longer full dog projection, the half dog form can work with a shallower receiving hole and thinner surrounding material.

Control levers pinned to a set angle may call for this point style when the screw locates in a drilled feature. Check mating feature, hex access, screw length, and marking tolerance. Pelletized half dog screws combine positive register at the point with thread friction from the insert.

Cold Headers helps buyers keep the half dog point requirement visible when similar nylon-insert set screws are easy to confuse. Review insert dimensions, hex key size, and ASME B18.3 before ordering this alloy steel socket set screw.
