    Hex Drives

    Also known as pin-in-hex or pin-in-socket bits, these sockets drive tamper-resistant hex fasteners with a center pin that blocks standard hex keys. They help secure equipment in public or high-traffic areas where unauthorized access is a concern. Chrome-plated steel resists corrosion for long service life. Replaceable bits let you restore a worn socket without buying a complete replacement.
