    Tamper-Resistant Torx Bits

    These bits fit around the security pin to turn tamper-resistant Torx screws. Use them to unlock electronic enclosures and other access-controlled equipment. Their six lobes withstand high pressure without slipping and stripping the drive. Also known as pin-in-Torx bits.
    Hex Shank—Also known as insert bits, these snap into hand tools. If you want to use them with power tools, attach a bit adapter (not included).
    Quick-Change Hex Shank—Lock these bits directly into power tools. They won't wobble as much as bits paired with an adapter, so they are the best choice for high-precision tasks.
    Steel—Best for dry environments, since moisture will cause these bits to rust.

    Plain Grip

    Cushion Grip

    Don't lug around a toolbox full of drivers—just swap out the bit to drive multiple screw sizes and styles with one tool. The ultimate space savers, these bit screwdrivers are a smart solution for on-the-go jobs.
    Nickel-Plated Steel—Similar corrosion resistance to chrome plating to withstand salt water and chemicals. However, nickel is more likely to wear off over time.
    Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel—With solid stainless steel construction, these screwdrivers have no coating that could flake off and damage the screw drive. They resist salt water and chemicals better than steel screwdrivers, but are not quite as strong.
    Plain Grip—Made of hard plastic for durability.
    Cushion Grip—Made of soft plastic to make gripping and squeezing the handle more comfortable.

    Reversible Tamper-Resistant Torx Bits

    Turn two sizes of tamper-resistant Torx screws with one bit. Their six-lobe shape grips fasteners so they won't slip and damage the drive. Use them to unlock electronic enclosures and other access-controlled equipment.
    Also known as insert bits, these snap into hand drivers.
    Steel—Best for dry environments, since moisture will cause these bits to rust.
    Ball-Detent Bit Holder—Bits with a ball detent are less likely to slip out of the holder than ones without. However, they don't slide in and out of the holder as easily.
