5/16-24 x 1/2 Half Dog Point Alloy Steel Socket Set Screw with Nylon Insert is specified when the drawing calls for alloy steel, a half dog point, and a nylon insert in the same screw. Because the point registers into a prepared feature, check the shaft, hub, or fixture detail before substituting a cup point style.
Control knobs, handles, and indexed hubs may use the short stub to return a component to a defined setting. Check mating feature, hex access, screw length, and marking tolerance. Pelletized half dog screws combine positive register at the point with thread friction from the insert. If there is no drilled seat and the screw must grip a plain shaft, Cup Point Alloy Set Screws with Nylon Insert are the comparison family.
Cold Headers works with distributors, OEM teams, and maintenance programs that need exact socket set screw configurations. Review insert dimensions, hex key size, and ASME B18.3 before ordering this alloy steel socket set screw.
