5/16-18 x 3/8 Full Dog Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw is intended for installations where the extended dog point becomes part of the locating geometry. The extended cylindrical point is used as a locating element, so the mating component must provide the corresponding seat or slot.
Typical applications include machine controls, pivot hardware, and stop blocks; it may also fit maintenance replacements where point style cannot be substituted casually where repeatable register is part of the assembly design. Use this point style only where the mating component is prepared to accept the dog point.
For 5/16-18 x 3/8, review the listed thread and length first because those catalog values control the exact SKU. The reference values for this nominal size list a ~5/32 in. dog point length. Cold Headers supports exact-size sourcing when point style, thread, and length must stay tied to the same item.
