TORX PLUS^® External Low-Profile Head

The ideal choice for applications requiring screws & bolts with both high torque transfer capabilities and low head height.

Overview

Features

• Hex flange head or pan head bearing surface
• 0° drive angle
• Lobe engagement spreads forces over large area to prevent stress risers that cause tool and fastener damage
• Higher torque transfer capability than corresponding internal recesses
• Drive system strength 5 to 6 times greater than normal seating torque
• Head height is similar to hex or pan head screws or bolts
  
• Lower head volume (weight) than hex and pan head fasteners (18% and 41% respectively)

Benefits

• Provides high strength and torque capability in a low-profile head
• Ensures optimal torque transmission and clamp load
• Allows high torque transfer without damage to fastener
• Minimizes space required to accomodate head height
  
• Excellent high-torque drive system for miniature fasteners
• Reduces wear on drive tools for extended tool life
