10-32 x 3/4 Oval Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is a compact locking set screw for parts that need internal hex access and a rounded contact point. Use this style where the assembly needs rounded contact and a separate thread-locking feature. Specify the heat-treated alloy steel body with nylon pellet when the print calls for mechanical set screw hardware, not a stainless substitute.
Machine rebuilds use this family when the service record calls for alloy steel, an oval point, and a nylon insert. Flat Point Alloy Set Screws with Nylon Insert are the comparison when a flat seat and minimal marking are the priority.
Cold Headers installs nylon locking pellets in-house at its Chicago facility for this oval point set screw family. This catalog separates oval point locking screws from plain oval point parts so the insert requirement stays visible. Check thread size, length, socket size, pellet dimensions, groove or seat condition, and surface-marking tolerance before substitution.
