3-48 x 3/8 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw is used in industrial hardware where point shape, material, thread, and length all need to match the request.

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 3-48 x 3/8 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 3-48 thread is UNC with 48 TPI, and the 3/8 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.
