10-32 x 3/4 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert provides a tapered conical point for deep seating plus a nylon insert that helps develop prevailing torque in the thread. The nylon insert does not contact the shaft; it works in the female thread to add friction during installation and removal. 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.
Light-drive keyless hub alternatives sometimes use a cone point where the application allows a marked shaft surface. The nylon element limits service temperature compared with an all-metal set screw, so review heat exposure before specifying it.
The locking pellet is installed after the screw body is identified, keeping the insert function separate from the cone point geometry. Cold Headers has worked with specialty socket fasteners since 1962 and supports exact thread-and-length identification for repair and production work. Review thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and mating-surface marking tolerance before replacing it with another set screw.
