Selected for shaft-mounted and adjustment applications, 3-56 x 1/4 18-8 Stainless Steel Cup Point Socket Set Screw uses a cup point end form to concentrate contact at the screw tip.
Typical use cases include fixtures, production equipment, and retention work, especially where localized holding contact is acceptable for the mating surface. The internal hex drive keeps installation access compact while the headless body remains contained within the mating part.
For purchasing and replacement work, confirm the 3-56 thread, 1/4 in. length, socket size, and cup point diameter match the drawing or installed part. Confirm that point contact, material, and service conditions fit the application. Use it where the assembly calls for a general-purpose stainless set screw rather than carbon or specialty material. 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.
