3/8-16 x 1 1/2 1960 Series 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Head Cap Screw with Nylon Insert gives machine builders a corrosion-resistant socket cap screw with an integral nylon insert. The pellet presses against the mating thread to provide prevailing torque without changing the socket head geometry.
Typical applications include washdown conveyors, stainless equipment frames, and guarded production machinery, where the exact thread and length help match drawings, service records, and replacement needs. Because 18-8 is not heat-treated for maximum clamp load, compare the 1960 Series Alloy Steel SHCS with Nylon Insert when joint strength is the governing requirement.
For rounded exposed heads with the same locking concept, review 18-8 Button Head Socket Cap Screws with Nylon Insert. Need the pellet in a non-catalog size or position? In-house pelletizing gives Cold Headers a practical route for special requests.
