Constructed from Grade 8 alloy steel with a nylon tip, this fastener delivers the clamping strength of a hardened steel body while protecting the mating surface from damage. The hex drive socket accepts a standard hex key for installation and adjustment. It is sold individually and is suited for use by machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians working on shafts, collars, pulleys, and similar assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis set screw is appropriate for both residential and light industrial applications where a shaft or component must be locked in position without surface scoring. The 1\/4-28 thread is a fine-pitch unified thread, compatible with both UNC and UNF standards per the supplier specification. The nylon tip absorbs contact stress and reduces vibration transfer at the point of engagement, making it a practical choice for precision assemblies, instrumentation mounts, and rotating equipment where shaft integrity must be maintained.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 8 alloy steel body provides high tensile and proof load strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNylon soft tip protects mating surfaces from gouging or galling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex socket drive accepts standard hex keys for easy installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-28 fine-pitch thread for precise engagement and reduced loosening under vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFull 3\/8 inch thread length for solid holding engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets UNC and UNF thread standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 1\/4-28 set screw for use in any threaded hole or collar machined to 1\/4-28 specifications requiring a soft-tip, non-marring fastener.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a correctly sized hex key. Always ensure the threaded bore is clean and free of debris before installation. De-energize or lock out any rotating equipment before servicing components secured by set screws. Do not overtighten the nylon tip, as excessive torque can deform the tip and reduce its effectiveness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-28\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Soft Tip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC \/ UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Measurement Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Length of Thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: NT-1428-375-AS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51689680109874,"sku":"NT-1428-375-AS","price":1341.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fe09a54ac55feac04ebfdfa4c0f59d41.jpg?v=1788262909","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-nt-1428-375-as-set-screw-1-4-28-x-3-8-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
