5/16-18 x 1/4 Cup Point Slotted Headless Set Screw combines headless installation with a cup point and straight slot for compact retention in light mechanical assemblies. For field service, the slot makes tool matching simple while preserving the compact installation expected from a set screw. Cup point geometry is a general-purpose set screw point for friction holding without requiring a drilled hole or machined flat.
For older machinery, replacement assemblies, equipment panels, and adjustment screws in tight locations, verify the thread, length, and mating surface before substituting another set screw style. For stainless material requirements, review Cup Point 18-8 Stainless Socket Set Screws.
For odd lengths or older slotted hardware callouts, Cold Headers can help identify the closest catalog path. The dimensional reference is ASME B18.6.2, cited here only as the slotted headless set screw dimensional standard.
