6-32 x 5/16 316 Stainless Steel Cup Point Socket Set Screw is a 316 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 instrumentation, fixtures, and adjustment assemblies, where compact internal-hex access is useful during setup. The internal hex drive allows socket-wrench access from the threaded hole, which is useful when surrounding components leave little room for external wrenching.
Review the 6-32 thread, 5/16 in. length, socket size, cup point diameter, mating surface, and exposure before specifying the item. Confirm that point contact, 316 material, and service conditions fit the application. 316 stainless steel is often selected for improved corrosion resistance where moisture, cleaning chemicals, or chloride exposure matter. 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 stainless socket products.
