5/16-24 x 1/4 combines an alloy steel socket set screw body with a nylon tip for applications where the contact surface matters as much as the thread and length.
Typical uses include robotics joints on finished shafts, compact pivots, and controlled-contact positioning details. Nylon and brass tips serve different jobs: nylon gives the softer touch, while brass provides a firmer metallic face. Nylon is the softer contact choice for delicate finishes and repeated adjustment.
Cold Headers' tipped-screw program is built for buyers who need the right contact face without losing the reviewed thread and length. If the environment calls for a stainless body, the Nylon and Brass Tip 18-8 Stainless Socket Set Screws category is the related catalog path.
