3/8-24 x 5/16 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 positioning components, hubs, and collars, where the drawing calls for a specific cup point set screw. 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 3/8-24 thread, 5/16 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 recessed end form is often chosen where a witness mark or indentation on the mating surface is acceptable for the holding method. Cold Headers has supplied specialty socket fasteners since 1962 and helps buyers identify difficult stainless set screw configurations.
