When a maintenance list or drawing calls for a 316 stainless cup point set screw, 1/4-20 x 3/16 316 Stainless Steel Cup Point Socket Set Screw provides a clear product callout for purchasing and replacement work.

In process equipment, pulleys, and sprockets, this screw is often selected where localized contact helps position a component on a shaft. The socket drive helps maintenance and assembly teams install or remove the fastener without needing side clearance around a head.

Selection should account for mating material, drive access, chloride or chemical exposure, temperature, and whether localized point contact is acceptable. This 1/4-20 x 3/16 size gives buyers a precise callout for ordering. It can fit washdown equipment, outdoor machinery, instrumentation, water-treatment hardware, and process equipment when 316 is specified. 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 316 stainless set screw configurations.
