6-32 x 3/16 Cup Point 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert combines cup-point bite, internal hex drive access, and nylon prevailing torque. The cup point may leave a witness mark depending on shaft material and installation conditions, while the insert works in the threaded engagement. The stainless construction supports equipment that needs a clean finish without claiming 316-level chloride performance.
Typical uses include conveyor guide rails, adjustment blocks, and shaft collars, where the set screw must hold position without an external head. Where maximum seating torque is the main driver, the Cup Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert may be the better strength-focused route.
Cold Headers brings long-running socket fastener knowledge to cup point set screw quoting and cross-checking. Review the thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and set-screw pellet location before matching the part to a service record or drawing.
