8-32 x 3/8 Full Dog Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw identifies a headless alloy steel set screw with an internal hex drive and a full dog locating point. The extended cylindrical point is used as a locating element, so the mating component must provide the corresponding seat or slot.
Typical applications include automation fixtures, packaging equipment, and conveyor adjustments; it may also fit equipment builds where external head clearance is not available where repeatable register is part of the assembly design. Check the mating feature depth and diameter before approving a substitution.
For 8-32 x 3/8, review the listed thread and length first because those catalog values control the exact SKU. The reference values for this nominal size list a ~3/32 in. dog point length. Cold Headers keeps specialty socket set screw sourcing focused on the actual print callout.
