3/8-16 x 7/8 Half Dog Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw belongs in assemblies where the set screw tip acts as a locating feature rather than only a friction point.

Because the tip is blunt and cylindrical, it can locate in a prepared hole or keyway without the surface penetration associated with cone or cup styles.

This family is suited to industrial mechanical assemblies where a steel half dog point screw is part of the locating method.

Typical review areas for 3/8-16 x 7/8 include couplings, handles, collars, and shaft-mounted accessories and maintenance bins, equipment rebuilds, and point-style controlled sourcing where the blunt pilot is part of the assembly fit.

Thread arithmetic for 3/8-16: 16 TPI in the UNC series; compare the 7/8 in. length with tapped depth and pilot reach. For retrofit work, compare the end style against the original part before treating it as a generic set screw. Cold Headers assists with exact-size sourcing when the shortened pilot is part of the purchase requirement.
