1/2-20 x 1/2 Cup Point Square Head Set Screw is a case hardened carbon steel set screw built around an external square head instead of a recessed drive. The open square head is useful when a standard wrench is preferred and the drive must stay visible during adjustment.
Packing gland and follower adjustments are typical service points where wrench-driven set screws are still specified. Where a protruding head will not clear the design, Cup Point Slotted Headless Set Screws provide a screwdriver-driven headless alternative.
When a machine still calls out square-head hardware, the exact-size listing helps avoid replacing a legacy part with the wrong drive style. The thread, length, across-flats size, head height, and cup point diameter should be checked against the print before purchase.
