Selected for shaft-mounted and adjustment applications, 8-36 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 instrumentation, enclosures, and replacement assemblies, especially where 18-8 stainless is chosen for clean appearance and routine moisture exposure. 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 8-36 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. Buyers should review the shaft or component surface condition, available drive access, environmental exposure, and required holding action before selecting this item. Cold Headers is a useful source when the part number, thread, point style, stainless material, or length is difficult to locate through standard catalog channels.
