When the print calls for a tipped set screw rather than a cup point, 1/4-20 x 1 gives buyers a brass contact face on an alloy steel body.

Typical uses include spline shafts, keyed shafts, and hub locations where the mating surface should not be chewed by a bare point. The internal socket drive keeps installation compact and leaves no external head projecting from the assembly. Brass gives a firmer metallic contact face when that contact style is preferred over nylon.

For tipped set screws and related tipped cap screws, Cold Headers' Chicago operation handles the soft-face installation work. For maximum bite instead of surface protection, the related cup point alloy set screw family is the better comparison.
