When a maintenance list or drawing calls for a stainless cup point set screw, 3-56 x 5/8 18-8 Stainless Steel Cup Point Socket Set Screw provides a clear product callout for purchasing and replacement work.
In conveyors, packaging machinery, and automation equipment, this screw is often selected where maintenance teams need repeatable socket-drive installation. The socket drive helps maintenance and assembly teams install or remove the fastener without needing side clearance around a head.
Selection should account for the mating material, available drive access, environmental exposure, and whether localized point contact is acceptable. This 3-56 x 5/8 size gives buyers a precise callout for ordering. It fits many indoor industrial, outdoor general-service, instrumentation, and routine-cleaning applications. 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.
