When a maintenance list or drawing calls for a stainless cup point set screw, 12-28 x 7/8 18-8 Stainless Steel Cup Point Socket Set Screw provides a clear product callout for purchasing and replacement work.
It is commonly used in gears, pulleys, and sprockets, where localized contact helps position a component on a shaft. 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 12-28 thread, 7/8 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. This point style is intended for applications where localized contact is part of the retaining method, not for assemblies that require a nonmarking tip. Cold Headers helps match set screw thread, length, point style, material, and socket drive details for industrial purchasing and repair work.
