For assemblies that call for a brass set screw by exact size, 1/4-28 x 1 Brass Cup Point Socket Set Screw identifies the required material, cup point geometry, thread, and length.

In instrumentation, enclosures, and equipment panels, this screw is often selected where a nonferrous set screw is specified for the hardware callout. The socket drive helps maintenance and assembly teams install or remove the fastener without needing side clearance around a head.

Selection should account for mating material, drive access, conductivity requirements, environmental exposure, and whether localized point contact is acceptable. This 1/4-28 x 1 size gives buyers a precise callout for ordering. It can fit electrical equipment, controls, instrumentation, fixtures, panels, and light-duty machinery when brass is specified. Buyers should review the shaft or component surface condition, available drive access, electrical requirements, and required holding action before selecting this item. Cold Headers is a useful source when the part number, thread, point style, brass material, or length is difficult to locate through standard catalog channels.
