Overview

• Alloy steel is the strongest of all steel types
• It has high tensile strength and offers excellent resistance to wear, fatigue and galling
• Cone points have sharply pointed tips that dig deep into material and provide excellent holding power
• Cone points are used to permanently locate and set parts, act as pivots and provide fine adjustments
• Hex socket drive types have a hex-shaped recess in the head and are driven with hex keys or hex socket bits
• The driving surface is protected from external damage and provides six sides of contact surface for added torque.
