About this deal

Unlike other screwdrivers, Torx fasteners are made to be resistant to cam-out. This is a type of tampering that occurs when a torque is applied to a screw that exceeds its limit. The Torx bit creates a round hole to prevent this from occurring. Its dimension also facilitates a secure fit between the drive and fastener head, allowing even greater torque transmission. Tamper Proof vs. Standard Torx Screws

As previously noted - the original Torx drive system was developed by Camcar Textron in 1967. But this early specification has undergone some beneficial development and improvement highlighted in this post. Drive System Issues in Production These fasteners also don’t wobble, so they’re suitable for applications that require high accuracy, like electronics and automobile industries. Polydrive (RIBE) What is a Polydrive Screw? The most obvious SAE vs metric equivalent is the size of the Torx bit. These bits come in a variety of sizes and are typically not interchangeable. The smallest of the lot is the T10, which is about the size of a 1/8" hex. The largest is the T47, which is about the size of a quarter. These bits are designed to work in many thread systems.The Torx Plus, also known as the Internal Plus, is an improved version of the original design. This version is designed to provide better torque transfer than the original design. The lobes on the screw allow for increased torque without causing much wear on the tool. The following is a Torx Bit Sizes Chart for Internal Torx. Two dimensions are important with respect to Torx screws. They are Point to Point and Diameter of the screw threads. Torx Size

Another advantage over other types is that star bits are much more efficient when hand-tightening. You can apply a large amount of torque without camming out.For example, if you have a screw with TX size, then you have to use a Torx Screwdriver or drive bit of TX size only.
