🔌 Function

Clamps the joint by drawing the two components together, tightened through a hexagon socket recessed into its head.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Fastener found loose, backed off or missing
• Hexagon socket rounded out so a key no longer bites
• Thread stripped or galled on removal
• Head corroded or seized in its counterbore

🛠️ 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
