Socket head screws

Also known as socket head cap screws, a type of screw that provides good grip and torque when tightened, and is well suited to confined spaces including the socket head. There are no sharp edges on the rounded head of the screw, which has made the socket head screw very popular and suitable for consumer products such as cycles and clocks. We keep a wide range of different types, dimensions, materials and finishes.
