1/4-28 x 7/8 Oval Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw gives maintenance teams a clear item line for oval point set screw replacement work.

Oval point geometry is useful when a shaft, groove, or angled surface must be repositioned during service without chewing the contact area.

Keep the alloy steel callout tied to the ordered part, while still reviewing exposure conditions and the surface condition expected at the contact point.

Typical review areas for 1/4-28 x 7/8 include adjustment screws, machine stops, and control knobs and conveyor equipment, packaging machinery, and production hardware where smoother point contact is part of the assembly.

The 1/4-28 callout corresponds to UNF thread form and 28 TPI; verify the 7/8 in. length against tapped depth and the desired bearing location. Check the length against tapped depth and contact location so the rounded end reaches the intended seat. Cold Headers assists with exact-size sourcing when oval point geometry matters to the final order.
