For adjustment locations that are loosened and reset, 5/16-18 x 1 1/4 uses a nylon tip so the replaceable face takes the contact instead of the mating surface.

Typical uses include die and mold setup screws, clamp stops, and fixture elements where the tip is the sacrificial face. That makes it useful when the set screw must bear on a finished or plated part and later be adjusted again. Nylon is the softer contact choice for delicate finishes and repeated adjustment.

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.
