10-24 x 3/8 1960 Series 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Head Cap Screw with Nylon Insert combines the familiar socket head profile with a nylon insert for added loosening resistance. Nylon contact at the thread adds frictional resistance while preserving the standard internal hex drive arrangement.

This size is often reviewed for beverage filling equipment, changeover tooling, and stainless guide assemblies when a stainless cap screw must retain a familiar socket head form. 18-8 stainless is a practical choice for ordinary moisture exposure, washdown-adjacent machinery, and equipment where a clean stainless finish is specified.

When chloride or saltwater exposure controls material selection, ask about 316 stainless nylon-insert cap screws as a non-catalog request. Cold Headers installs nylon inserts in-house for supported socket-cap configurations, with odd-size sourcing handled through the quote process.
