1/4-28 x 1 Cup Point 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert gives a stainless, internal-hex set screw option for collars, hubs, and adjustments. One interface helps hold the collar or hub against movement; the other adds friction in the thread so vibration is less likely to loosen the screw. The stainless construction supports equipment that needs a clean finish without claiming 316-level chloride performance.
For washdown-adjacent fixtures, guard hardware, or machine covers, check point contact, threaded engagement, and drive access before installation. A nylon tip protects the shaft surface from marring, while a nylon insert locks the screw in its thread; those are different features.
Cold Headers brings long-running socket fastener knowledge to cup point set screw quoting and cross-checking. Review the thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and set-screw pellet location before matching the part to a service record or drawing.
