Socket Head Button Screws
Button Head: This is similar to a pan head but has a top that is more curved.
Button head socket screws have finer threads than wood screws. They are designed to be used in conjunction with a nut or tapped hole.
Allen Key Drive
There are two types of screws that have hex heads -- one that has a hexagonal recession in the head and one that does not have any grooves or slots at all. A hex socket screw or Allen screw requires the use of an Allen wrench, which has a hexagonal shaft that is inserted into the recession in the screw head. The other type of hex screw has an entire head is hexagonally shaped. A wrench set, socket wrench or adjustable wrench is required for driving hex screws.
Screws are amazingly versatile and powerful fasteners. The basic concept is a threaded cylinder that is used for holding all sorts of things together, including wood, plastic and metal. Different types of screws have been developed to maximize efficacy for particular applications. The various types of screws can be categorized according to driving methods, head shape, type of threads and the material and finish used to make the screw.
