3/8-24 x 5/16 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw gives maintenance teams a clear item line for cone point set screw replacement work.

Cone point geometry concentrates contact at the tip, so it is often seated into a pre-spotted or drilled dimple to control location and reduce wandering during service.

Use this material identity when the bill of material calls for alloy steel; environmental exposure and surface requirements should still be checked against the application.

Typical review areas for 3/8-24 x 5/16 include shaft collars, stops, and hub-mounted components and conveyor equipment, packaging machinery, and production hardware where focused tip engagement is part of the assembly.

The 3/8-24 thread is UNF with 24 TPI, and the 5/16 in. length should be compared with tapped depth and cone-point reach. If a dimple or spotted hole is used, confirm that the screw reaches it without bottoming out in the tapped bore. Cold Headers assists with exact-size sourcing when cone point details matter to the final order.
