1/4-28 x 2 1/2 Flat Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw provides an exact-size catalog entry for alloy steel flat point positioning work.
For 1/4-28 x 2 1/2, review the flat point around handles, knobs, collars, and control hardware and industrial assemblies that use a broad bearing face at the screw end. The broad end face suits prepared flats, repeated adjustment, and jobs where unnecessary deformation of the mating component would create service problems.
The 1/4-28 designation supplies the ordering thread form, and the 2 1/2 in. length should be checked against tapped depth and bearing location. Check the length against tapped depth and bearing location so the flat end reaches the intended surface. For repair or production work, the alloy steel designation helps distinguish this fastener from material families that serve different environments.
The UNF series and 28 threads per inch are derived from the thread designation. A prepared mating flat helps the end seat evenly so the screw does not rock on an irregular contact area. Cold Headers supports exact-size sourcing when a flat point detail matters to the final order.
