Default Stuck Setscrew in Aluminum Knob

heating the Allen wrench to 450 degrees and then inserting it into
the setscrew and turning


You heated the wrong thing. What you should heat is the knob trying not to
heat the setscrew in the process.

If you can expand the knob even a little bit by heating, the setscrew is
more likely to come out.
