Pin Torx^®

Pin Torx® security screws have a distinctive head design with a recessed Torx drive surrounded by a raised pin in the center. The pin prevents standard Torx drivers from engaging with the screw, requiring a special tamper-resistant tool with a hollowed-out tip to fit over the pin and engage with the Torx drive.

The presence of the central pin in Pin Torx screws provides an added layer of security, deterring tampering and unauthorised removal. This makes them suitable for applications where preventing vandalism, theft, or secure access is crucial.

Pin Torx security screws find applications in a wide range of security-sensitive environments, including public infrastructure, electronics, machinery, automotive, and consumer products. They are commonly used to secure access panels, covers, signage, license plates, and other components where tamper resistance is required.

These security screws are available in various sizes, lengths, and materials to suit different applications. They can be made from materials like stainless steel, carbon steel, or alloy steel, providing options for corrosion resistance and strength.

Installing and removing Torx security screws requires the use of a special tamper-resistant tool with a hollowed-out tip that fits over the pin and engages with the Torx drive. This tool is typically not readily available to the general public, adding an extra layer of security.

Torx security screws can be customized with unique drive configurations or proprietary designs to further enhance security and prevent unauthorized removal.
