1/4-20 x 2 1/4 Oval Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw gives a size-specific alloy steel option for adjustment locations that need a crowned set screw end.
Because the end is smooth and crowned, this style is often reviewed for adjustment screws, stops, knobs, and retained parts that move during setup.
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 1/4-20 x 2 1/4 include shafts, collars, grooves, and splined seats and shaft-mounted parts that need smoother point contact where smoother point contact is part of the assembly.
The 1/4-20 callout corresponds to UNC thread form and 20 TPI; verify the 2 1/4 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 has supplied specialty socket fasteners since 1962, including set screws for uncommon adjustment needs.
