1/4 x 3 3/4 Alloy Steel Socket Head Shoulder Screw (Stripper Bolt) with Nylon Insert gives punch-and-die assemblies a defined shoulder length with a locking element in the threaded end. The nylon pellet belongs in the threaded end, so it adds prevailing torque without changing the working shoulder surface. That nylon insert helps the screw resist backing out during cyclic shock, vibration, or press operation without implying permanent locking.
Specify this configuration for fixture rebuilds, packaging equipment details, sliding plates, and precision stops when top-side socket access and a consistent shoulder surface are both important. Check the mating hole, die shoe thread, and working clearance before substituting another shoulder diameter or length.
Cold Headers is a Chicago specialty socket fastener distributor focused on exact-size sourcing for industrial replacement needs. We install the locking pellet ourselves; odd sizes and special requests are welcome. For repair work, verify the shoulder length, working diameter, threaded end, and locking-pellet position against the removed fastener.
