5/8-18 x 1 1/2 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw provides an exact-size catalog entry for alloy steel cone point retention work.
The pointed end can also serve as a pivot or hanger point where the design intentionally uses focused contact instead of a broad bearing surface.
Alloy steel construction is appropriate where the product specification calls for this family and the cone point geometry matches the intended contact condition.
Typical review areas for 5/8-18 x 1 1/2 include pivot points, hanger points, and drilled contact locations and machine controls, brackets, and locating points where focused tip engagement is part of the assembly.
The 5/8-18 thread is UNF with 18 TPI, and the 1 1/2 in. length should be compared with tapped depth and cone-point reach. Confirm that the component can accept pointed penetration before substituting this style for a broader point. Cold Headers has supplied specialty socket fasteners since 1962 and supports unusual set screw configurations.
