What is a Socket Set?

A socket set screw is a headless, fully threaded fastener used to secure objects onto a shaft to prevent rotational or lateral movement. Driven by an Allen key/hex driver, it sits flush or below the surface and comes with different types of 'point' including

Cup Point: Most common - strong, quick locking.
Flat Point: Ideal for frequent adjustments on hardened shafts without causing damage.
Cone Point: Used for permanent, high-strength positioning.
Dog Point: Used for precise, permanent positioning, often locating into a pre-drilled hole.
