3/8 x 3 1/2 Alloy Steel Socket Head Shoulder Screw (Stripper Bolt) with Nylon Insert uses a ground shoulder to guide, space, or support motion while the nylon-insert threaded end supplies prevailing torque. The ground shoulder works as the bearing, guide, pivot, spacer, or travel-control surface, while the smaller 5/16-18 threaded end anchors into the die shoe or fixture. That nylon insert helps the screw resist backing out during cyclic shock, vibration, or press operation without implying permanent locking.
The part is relevant to assembly fixtures, mold-adjacent tooling, die lifters, and controlled-travel stations because the shoulder carries interface contact and the thread locks into the tapped member. Alloy steel suits strength-focused tooling, but the part should be kept oiled or indoors when exposure is a concern. For joints torqued once and left alone, compare plain Alloy Steel Socket Head Stripper Bolts.
Cold Headers has supplied specialty socket fasteners since 1962, with practical support for hard-to-find stripper bolt sizes. We install the locking pellet ourselves; odd sizes and special requests are welcome. Check the shoulder fit, threaded-end engagement, head clearance, and pellet location when comparing this part to an existing screw.
