8-36 x 1 3/4 Flat Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw is for applications where the end face should distribute load across a prepared seating area.
For 8-36 x 1 3/4, review the flat point around compact equipment where an external screw head would interfere and machine stops, collars, and adjustment screws. The broad end face suits prepared flats, repeated adjustment, and jobs where unnecessary deformation of the mating component would create service problems.
The 8-36 designation supplies the ordering thread form, and the 1 3/4 in. length should be checked against tapped depth and bearing location. Review the surface condition, adjustment frequency, and available drive access before approving the item. The material identity should remain attached to the set screw family because substitutions can change both ordering and application review.
The UNF series and 36 threads per inch are derived from the thread designation. By spreading the clamping force over the flat end face, the screw can hold a prepared surface without intentionally gouging it. Cold Headers has supplied specialty socket fasteners since 1962, including set screws for uncommon service requirements.
