3/8-24 x 5/16 Nylon Tip 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Set Screw is intended for holding, locating, or adjustment work where a nylon tip helps reduce marking. Nylon is specified when the application needs a softer sacrificial tip instead of direct stainless contact.
Anodized, plated, or painted assemblies use tip screws to limit direct metal point contact. Internal socket access keeps the screw headless for compact adjustment points.
For maintenance, production, and distributor sourcing, Cold Headers can help verify size and tip data. Check the 3/8-24 x 5/16 thread, threaded length, tip length, tip diameter, mating material, and drive access against the drawing. Cold Headers' Chicago facility helps match unusual nylon tip requirements while preserving published dimensions. When thread friction is needed instead of soft contact, 18-8 Set Screws with Nylon Insert solve a different task. This fine-thread row fits the hard-to-find tip-screw range where exact size, tip material, and published A/C dimensions matter.
