10-24 x 5/8 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is specified where a tapered conical point should nest into a prepared shaft spot while the nylon insert adds prevailing torque. The point geometry is intended for permanent and semi-permanent settings where the shaft surface can be prepared. Use this alloy steel body with the nylon locking pellet where the drawing calls for a mechanical set screw, not a corrosion-focused stainless part.
Machine controls, handles, and knobs can use cone point set screws when the control shaft is intentionally prepared for the point.
When a bill of material calls out cone point alloy hardware with a nylon insert, Cold Headers keeps the catalog path specific. Review thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and mating-surface marking tolerance before replacing it with another set screw.
