The six rounded points fit the star-shaped recess of Torx-Plus screws. These bits have a similar profile to Torx but are not recommended for use with standard Torx screws.

Hex shank bits (also known as insert bits) are used in hand drivers or with a bit adapter in power tools.

Hex shank bits for power tools have a groove in the shank and fit directly into power tools without an adapter. They offer more reach for recessed holes and less wobble compared to a hex shank bit used with an adapter.
