1/4-28 x 1 Flat Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert gives designers a surface-respecting set screw option when the shaft should remain usable after repositioning. Flat point geometry favors surface protection and repeatable adjustment rather than maximum bite into the mating part. Use the heat-treated alloy steel body with the nylon locking pellet where the application calls for mechanical fastening rather than stainless material.
Machine rebuilds use this family when the service record calls for alloy steel, a flat point, and a nylon insert. Do not treat plain alloy steel as corrosion resistant; protect or oil the part when the environment demands it.
Cold Headers can review non-catalog flat point set screw needs when the application requires a nylon insert. Cold Headers focuses on exact-size socket fastener sourcing for production, repair, and plant maintenance needs. Check thread size, length, socket size, pellet dimensions, shaft-flat condition, and surface-marking tolerance before substitution.
