Description: |
The assignee company, Allen Mfg. Co. of Hartford, was the originator of both the socket-head set screw ("the Allen safety set screw") and the Allen wrench, and was the first to manufacture pressed-and-broached socket wrench sets, the approach used to make virtually all sockets today. The company was founded in 1910 by William G. Allen. |
