1/2-13 x 2 Half Dog Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw keeps the half dog point requirement visible when a generic set screw line would be too broad.
For alignment work, the mating feature should be checked so the dog point enters cleanly and does not bottom before the set screw is seated.
Alloy steel construction belongs with set screw requirements where the design depends on the specified material and dog-style pilot geometry.
Typical review areas for 1/2-13 x 2 include repair assemblies, service records, and exact-size replacements and repair assemblies, service records, and exact-size replacements where the blunt pilot is part of the assembly fit.
Thread arithmetic for 1/2-13: 13 TPI in the UNC series; compare the 2 in. length with tapped depth and pilot reach. Use the point style as a controlled specification, especially when replacing hardware from a prior drawing. Cold Headers supports maintenance, distributor, and production requests where point geometry changes the ordered item.
