1-72 x 1/16 18-8 Stainless Steel Cup Point Socket Set Screw is an 18-8 Stainless Steel Cup Point Socket Set Screw used when a headless internal-hex fastener is specified for retaining or positioning a component.
It is commonly used in tooling, fixtures, and adjustment assemblies, where compact internal-hex access is useful during setup. The internal hex drive allows socket-wrench access from the top of the threaded hole, which is useful when surrounding components leave little room for external wrenching.
Review the 1-72 thread, 1/16 in. length, hex socket size, cup point diameter, and mating surface before specifying the item. Confirm that point contact, material, and service conditions fit the application. 18-8 stainless is selected for general corrosion resistance, clean appearance, and ordinary moisture exposure. The point geometry gives the installer a defined end form for localized holding contact rather than a general-purpose threaded plug. Cold Headers works with distributors, maintenance teams, and production buyers that need clear size identification for specialty socket products.
