Designed for compact set-screw fastening, 5/16-24 x 5/16 Brass Cup Point Socket Set Screw combines brass construction with a cup-shaped point for localized contact at the mating surface.

Applications often include electrical controls, knobs, and handles, where brass material and internal-hex access are useful in a compact assembly. The internal hex recess gives the installer controlled drive engagement while keeping the fastener profile inside the tapped component.

The verified dimensions below help engineering and purchasing teams compare the screw before ordering. Confirm that point contact, brass material, and service conditions fit the application. Final material selection should reflect the mechanical, electrical, environmental, and dimensional requirements of the assembly. The recessed end form is often chosen where a witness mark or indentation on the mating surface is acceptable for the holding method. Cold Headers has supplied specialty socket fasteners since 1962 and helps buyers identify difficult brass set screw configurations.
