5/16-18 x 1 1/2 Brass Tip 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Set Screw is selected when a brass tip is needed to bear on a shaft, stop, or finished component with less marking risk. The brass face provides a firmer metallic contact tip while separating the stainless body from the contacted surface.

Electrical enclosure hardware and control-panel mechanisms use the headless form where covers need clearance. Internal socket access keeps the screw headless for compact adjustment points.

Cold Headers has supported specialty socket fasteners since 1962 and helps match exact thread, length, and tip details. Check the 5/16-18 x 1 1/2 thread, threaded length, tip length, tip diameter, mating material, and drive access against the drawing. A tip screw trades some bite for cleaner contact; Cup Point 18-8 Socket Set Screws are used when the design prioritizes point engagement.
