8-32 x 3/8 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw is a headless internal-hex fastener for assemblies that rely on pointed contact at the end of the screw.

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 8-32 x 3/8 include couplings, handles, collars, and retained accessories and equipment rebuilds, service records, and exact-size substitutions where focused tip engagement is part of the assembly.

The 8-32 thread is UNC with 32 TPI, and the 3/8 in. length should be compared with tapped depth and cone-point reach. Match the thread and length to the print because length changes can alter where the conical tip seats. Cold Headers assists with exact-size sourcing when cone point details matter to the final order.
