For finished parts that need a softer bearing face, 1/4-20 x 5/8 supplies an alloy steel socket set screw with a brass tip matched to the row's verified dimensions.
Typical uses include jig and fixture adjustment, workholding details, and service parts that return to the same location. The alloy body is the dry-service workhorse choice when the bill of material calls for an alloy socket set screw with a soft face. Brass gives a firmer metallic contact face when that contact style is preferred over nylon.
Cold Headers has supplied specialty socket fasteners since 1962 and keeps this category focused on exact size, tip material, and application fit. Because the tip is the contact element, the mating material and acceptable witness mark should guide final selection.
