3/8-16 x 3/4 Cone Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is the alloy steel nylon-insert version of a cone point socket set screw for compact machine assemblies. A spotted shaft gives the point a defined pocket, so the set screw can locate more positively during installation. 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.
Replacement assemblies with dimpled shafts can keep the original point style while adding a nylon insert for thread friction.
In-house pellet installation helps Cold Headers support nylon-insert requirements that are easy to confuse with plain cone point screws. Since 1962, the Cold Headers catalog has focused on socket products that are easy to misidentify without careful size language. Review thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and mating-surface marking tolerance before replacing it with another set screw.
