Where a standard pointed set screw would be too aggressive for the mating part, 8-32 x 3/16 offers a nylon tip on an alloy steel socket set screw body.
Typical uses include instrument fixtures, small control components, and bench-built positioning hardware. The 3A thread fit keeps the screw in the precision set-screw class while the tip changes the way the end contacts the part. Nylon is the softer contact choice for delicate finishes and repeated adjustment.
Longer 1-1/4 and 1-1/2 in. tipped set screws are natural fits for Cold Headers' specialty sourcing work. If the environment calls for a stainless body, the Nylon and Brass Tip 18-8 Stainless Socket Set Screws category is the related catalog path.
