3/8-24 x 3/4 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 cone point is selected for mechanical interlock because the tapered tip seats into a spot or dimple instead of only pressing on the surface. 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.
Drive collars, couplings, and shaft-mounted stops can use this style when a stronger locating action is needed than a flat contact face.
Cold Headers supports exact-size and hard-to-find cone point nylon-insert sourcing for industrial repair, replacement, and production requirements. Review thread size, length, hex key size, point style, and mating-surface marking tolerance before replacing it with another set screw.
