The good thing about industrial suppliers is you can buy single sizes and they're usually good quality, so you don't have to buy a set. Ball end are usefull, but the ball end shouldnt be used to "initially break" the screw as i've seen them snap off in the head.

I only use that size for the chrono adjustment screw, that's why they keep disappearing and need a few of the same size, I'll start charging a rental fee of them, that way they 'MIGHT' make it back to my spares box, but then again
