You can't link a specific item from McMaster
Good to know...and really annoying.
Yes it is, it makes online collaboration a nightmare
5-Point TORX Tamper-Proof Bit Set - Fits Many German Cars - T10 to T50 - Taiwan by Pro Tool https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007SOODHC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_crRCxbB70NS1D
Awesome thank you!
Its a tamper proof torx plus just like someone else said. Regular tamper proof torx may round this out
One of the many "security" bits that every man and his dog owns here in Australia.
i always find these kind of silly.... why are hex keys not enough? any person that might be inclined to carry a set of hex keys would easily just go buy the bits on the internet to open whatever they want.
It's a "security Torx"-head screw. Just like a regular Torx but with a steel pin in the center to prevent extraction. Not sure what size.
Harbor Freight sells cheap kits for security bits. I recommend the 100-piece kit. Find the kits here and here.
Regular torx have 6 points. This one has 5, so the "plus" seems to be important here.
Torx Plus is 6 point. Tamper proof Torx Plus is 5 point.
"Tamper Proof Torx Plus" reads like a feminine hygiene product.
Tamper proof Torx Plus here. In the US that's what we call them.
Thx!
