With a deeper drive than flat and rounded head screws, socket head screws withstand more torque for a tighter hold. Install in a counterbored hole or above the surface.

A domed head sits above the surface of your material. Includes screws such as pan, button, binding, and truss head screws.

The head makes 12 points of contact with a wrench to handle more torque than a socket head or hex head screw.
