4-40 x 3/8 Brass Tip 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Set Screw gives maintenance and build teams an exact-size 18-8 stainless set screw with a brass working tip. Where nylon is not the preferred contact face, the brass tip gives a metallic soft-tip option.
Lead screws, ball screws, and rack adjustments use this style where a bare point would be too aggressive. Internal socket access keeps the screw headless for compact adjustment points.
Check the 4-40 x 3/8 thread, threaded length, tip length, tip diameter, mating material, and drive access against the drawing. Because the tip is added to the working end, the 3A thread fit remains available for close-fitting tapped holes. For stainless-on-stainless assemblies, avoid fast dry installation because galling can damage threads. If the application needs aggressive point bite instead of a soft contact face, Cup Point 18-8 Socket Set Screws may be the better comparison.
