I am looking for information on the uses for the many different types of set screw points. Cone Point, Cup Point, Knurled Cup Point, Flat Point, Oval Point, dog point and half dog point, What are the advantages to each and how each should be applied, ie how tight they should be, should one use a thread locking compound??
