          Answer This Question

          A:  Adobero, Torx® is an industry standard pattern that features 6 points or fins on the bit or fastener. If you are looking for a bit with only 5 points then it is not a Torx® fastener.

          by|May 4, 2023

            A:  All Torx bits are the same. have 6 points. same as hex bits.

            by|May 5, 2023

              A:  According to Wikipedia, 5-point version is called Torx Plus. So I would believe this bit is the normal Torx and not Torx Plus.

              A:  This bit has a hole in the tip for a tamper proof screw which does not allow normal bits to turn the screw.

              by|May 3, 2023

                A:  Woody, A tamper proof torx bit has a recess in the center of the bit to allow it to work on security or tamper proof torx screws or bolts. It will still work on non-taper proof bolts as well.

                        Q:I am removing seat belts posts in a van and I'd think they are in pretty tight, what tool should I get to use with this?

                        Answer This Question

                        A:  Hello albertish, A socket wrench would probably be the best solution. An impact wrench would probably put too much force on the screw. To make the job easier make sure the socket wrench you're using has a long handle for better leverage. I hope this helps. Cheers, Chris
