2. List of screw drives - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_screw_drives

   Standard 12-point hex socket bits and wrenches fit these screws. The screw heads are typically flanged, and may fit into standard Allen hex socket cap screw counterbores molded or machined into parts to be fastened. Compared to Allen hex sockets, the advantages of these bolts include higher torque capability and the lack of a recess to trap water.

3. Hex key - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hex_key

   The idea of a hex socket screw drive was probably conceived as early as the 1860s to the 1890s, but such screws were probably not manufactured until around 1910. Rybczynski (2000) describes a flurry of patents for alternative drive types in the 1860s to the 1890s in the U.S., [2] which are confirmed to include internal-wrenching square and triangle types (that is, square and triangular sockets ...

   Socket set with ratchet (above), four hex sockets and a universal joint. A socket wrench (or socket spanner) is a type of spanner (or wrench [1] in North American English) that uses a closed socket format, rather than a typical open wrench/spanner to turn a fastener, typically in the form of a nut or bolt.

   Machine screws with different thread diameters Hex key set with metric sizes from 2 mm to 10 mm according to sizes for use with ISO 262 screw sizes (except 3.5 mm for M6 internal set screw) For each size bolt or screw and type of head, there is a corresponding size driver prescribed by various ISO standards, including:

   In 1913, Woolley and Meredith defined them like Anthony, but gave the following dimensions: hex head cap screws up to and including 7 ⁄ 16 inch (11.1125 mm) have a head that is 3 ⁄ 16 inch (4.7625 mm) larger than the shank diameter; screws greater than 1 ⁄ 2 inch (12.7 mm) in diameter have a head that is 1 ⁄ 4 inch (6.35 mm) larger than ...

7. Torx - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torx

   An External Torx version exists, also known as Inverted Torx, where the screw head has the shape of a Torx screwdriver bit, and a Torx socket is used to drive it. The external "E" Torx nominal sizing does not correlate to the "T" size, (e.g. an E40 socket is too large to fit a T40 Torx bit, while an E8 Torx socket will fit a T40 Torx bit [6]).
