Socket Head Cap Screws
Also called Allen head screws, socket head cap screws are a type of threaded fastener. They typically have a cylindrical head with an inset hexagon drive that can be used in conjunction with a key for tightening. Socket head cap screws have a number of benefits over other fastener types, including the ability to better tensile and yield strength compared to other screw types.

The majority of our socket head cap screws are available in stainless steel, although we also work with specialty alloys upon request.
