Step 50 Tamper Pin Phillips® Head

[[br]]The Tamperproof Screw Company was founded in the late 1970's when George Friedman developed the Phillips® security screw. As its name states it has an internal pin within the Phillips recess of the head, requiring a special insert bit or key wrench to insert and remove. This unique feature renders the Tamper Pin Phillips® Screw tamper proof, reducing the risk of vandals or intruders tampering or undoing the screws. The Philips/Cross tamperproof profile has the same properties as the classic Philips/Cross; the difference is that the tool has a hole located in the tip and the screw head has a small central pin.

Theft Proof fasteners are virtually impossible to remove without the matching driver. These screws are easy to drive & remove with matching tool, but cannot be removed with Phillips® drivýue to the design of the Tamper Pin Phillips® Security Screw it is suitable for higher torque applications and is "2 way". Available in sizes #1, 2, 3.
