A hex allen wrench will do that in
a Torx fastener. Do you know for sure
that it is an allen head fastener?

But it is also true tiny hex seem to be hard to match.
I have a few it is almost impossible to eyeball the difference... But one fits and the others do not.
Finding some of the tiny ones can be difficult.
Amazon sucks for searching for a tiny set.
I keep the ones I have acquired in a special small bin!
From Wiki: ""Hex keys are measured across-flats (AF), which is the distance between two opposite (parallel) flat sides of the key. Standard metric sizes are defined in ISO 2936:2001 "Assembly tools for screws and nuts—Hexagon socket screw keys", also known as DIN 911, and, measured in millimeters (mm) are:
0.7, 0.9, 1.0, 1.25, 1.3, 1.5
Now WHO can 'see' the difference between the damn 0.7 or 0.9 or even 1.0mm
eyeballing them???
When I worked as a mechanic in a semiconductor fab, I LIVED for my bondhus set of keys.
I could also simply grab the right one every time. This after months of practice. But I couldn't do that today. Need to keep the eye sharp!
I have allen keys down to 0.035", .050" and than up to 1/16"
Too much is never enough
