## ⚙️ Key Features

-   Hex socket screw
-   0.009 kg
-   Listed for three applications across EM and EPT units

## 🔌 Function

Clamps two components together, its internal hex drive allowing it to be tightened where there is no room for a spanner on a hexagon head.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Screw found loose, or the joint it holds working apart
-   Socket rounded out so a key will no longer grip
-   Head corroded and packed with debris so the key will not enter
-   Thread stripped, stretched or seized on removal
-   Head broken off, leaving the shank in the tapping

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Use a hex key or bit that fills the socket fully and is not rounded off — a sloppy tool fit is what ruins these heads
-   Clean paint, sealant and dirt out of the socket before engaging the tool, and check the threads and the mating face are clean and dry
-   Tighten to the figure and sequence given in the workshop manual for the assembly, rather than by feel — socket screws are often used where clamp load matters and access is poor
-   Renew any screw whose socket is damaged, and refit with thread-locking compound only where the manual for that assembly calls for it
-   Start every screw by hand so it picks up the thread square, particularly into aluminium housings where a cross-threaded start ruins the casting
