Traditional security screws, also known as tamperproof screws, are otherwise standard screws but with a unique head, making it nearly impossible to remove with common tools. That used to mean that any screws that couldn't be removed with a slot-style or Phillips head driver could be considered security screws.
Security screws protect your possessions against unwanted tampering. The torx with pin loss-prevention drive style requires a special bit to install, discouraging theft attempts. Maximum torque transfer & positive tool engagement means easier drive installation with less pressure & slippage. Torx Pin-Head offers a high degree of security & requires matching drive bit. Available in Button & Flat-Head machine screws & Button, Flat & Pan-head design sheet metal screws.
Button head tamperproof screws have a common button head profile, great for limited space installation areas. The smooth head design gives a neat, professional finish free from sharp edges, great for furniture and automotive applications.
Machine thread screws can be used in a tapped hole or with a locking / non-locking nut. Length is measured from underneath the head.
