10-24 x 7/8 Oval Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw gives a size-specific alloy steel option for adjustment locations that need a crowned set screw end.
Oval point geometry is useful when a shaft, groove, or angled surface must be repositioned during service without chewing the contact area.
Alloy steel construction is appropriate where the product specification calls for this family and the oval point geometry matches the intended contact condition.
Typical review areas for 10-24 x 7/8 include shaft-mounted parts that need smoother point contact and shafts, collars, grooves, and splined seats where smoother point contact is part of the assembly.
The 10-24 callout corresponds to UNC thread form and 24 TPI; verify the 7/8 in. length against tapped depth and the desired bearing location. Review the mating material, contact shape, and adjustment frequency before changing point style. Cold Headers can quote this oval point family by exact thread, length, alloy steel material, and contact style.
