A common type of fixture, used in materials tensile testing (Grip-Engineering). A fixture is a work-holding or support device used in the manufacturing industry. [1] [2] Fixtures are used to securely locate (position in a specific location or orientation) and support the work, ensuring that all parts produced using the fixture will maintain conformity and interchangeability.
Wooden dowel pins. The dowel is a cylindrical shape made of wood, plastic, or metal. In its original manufactured form, a dowel is long and called a dowel rod, which are often cut into shorter dowel pins. [citation needed] Dowels are commonly used as structural reinforcements in cabinet making and in numerous other applications, including:
Device with grooves and chucks. A jig's primary purpose is to provide repeatability, accuracy, and interchangeability in the manufacturing of products. [1]An example of a jig is when a key is duplicated; the original is used as a jig so the new key can have the same path as the old one.
A common form of in-circuit testing uses a bed-of-nails tester.This is a fixture that uses an array of spring-loaded pins known as "pogo pins". When a printed circuit board is aligned with and pressed down onto the bed-of-nails tester, the pins make electrical contact with locations on the circuit board, allowing them to be used as test points for in-circuit testing.
The term 'boss' when used in engineering can also relate to a finishing edge around (usually) a circular opening that allows the opening to locate onto, or within another opening thus locating or joining two items together with a view to the location or joining being temporary or semi-permanent.

The two-pin socket is an update of the bi-post design with smaller pins designed to reduce the cost of manufacture. The 1000-watt FEL medium two-pin base halogen lamp allows designers to insert the lamp into the end of the ellipsoidal reflector through a smaller hole than previously possible with conventional incandescent lamps.
