For assemblies that call for a brass set screw by exact size, 4-40 x 1 Brass Cup Point Socket Set Screw identifies the required material, cup point geometry, thread, and length.
It is commonly used in bracket assemblies, equipment panels, and retention work, where localized holding contact is acceptable for the mating surface. The internal hex drive allows socket-wrench access from the threaded hole, which is useful when surrounding components leave little room for external wrenching.
Review the 4-40 thread, 1 in. length, socket size, cup point diameter, mating surface, and material requirements before specifying the item. Confirm that point contact, brass material, and service conditions fit the application. Brass is often selected for nonferrous construction, electrical conductivity, general corrosion resistance, and distinctive appearance. This point style is intended for applications where localized contact is part of the retaining method, not for assemblies that require a nonmarking tip. Cold Headers helps match set screw thread, length, point style, material, and socket drive details for industrial purchasing and repair work.
