When the print calls for a tipped set screw rather than a cup point, 5/16-24 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 soft tip concentrates contact at the end of the screw while avoiding the harsher bite of an untreated alloy point. Brass gives a firmer metallic contact face when that contact style is preferred over nylon.

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.
