Socket Cap Screws are fasteners that are manufactured with an Allen key. These fasteners have a hexagon indentation at the top of their head which allows the user to insert an Allen key and unscrew or tighten the socket cap screws. The most common material used for manufacturing socket cap screws is high strength steel, and these fasteners are often praised for their strength and withstand pressure where other screws and fasteners would not.These are just one of the custom made screws that Hague Fasteners manufacture.
Hague Fasteners also create non standard socket set screws. These screws are similar to non standard socket screws, except they often have no head – this is because they are most commonly used within or against another object, and having no head allows for the socket set screws to be completely threaded.
Socket set screws have different point types for different situations; this can be very helpful to engineers.
The different point types are;
– – Flat
– – Domed
– – Cone
– – Cup
– – Knurled Cup
– – Extended
