Designed for compact set-screw fastening, 5/16-18 x 1 1/2 Alloy Steel Cup Point Socket Set Screw combines Alloy Steel construction with a cup-shaped point for localized contact at the mating surface.
Typical use cases include conveyors, packaging machinery, and automation equipment, especially where maintenance teams need repeatable socket-drive installation. 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 5/16-18 thread, 1 1/2 in. length, socket size, and cup point diameter match the drawing or installed part. Always confirm that the cup point contact is acceptable for the mating component and service conditions. Compared with a plain threaded plug, the cup-shaped end gives the installer a defined point style for holding or adjustment work. Cold Headers works with distributors, maintenance teams, and production buyers that need clear size identification for specialty socket products.
