Faithfull Security Screwdriver Bits - T40S

A T40S security bit is a specialized screwdriver bit designed for T40 TORX screws that have a small pin in the center of the drive recess. This pin prevents the use of standard TORX bits.

Security bits prevent tampering by requiring a specific tool to remove or install screws that have features like a center pin, common in electronics and public installations.

These Faithfull security bits are manufactured from high-strength, heat-treated S2 grade steel, known for its durability and resistance to wear and shock.

No, this bit is specifically for TORX Security (TR) screws with a center pin. Using it on a standard TORX screw may not provide a proper fit and could damage the screw or bit.

Ensure a firm, positive engagement between the bit and the screw head. Apply steady pressure and avoid excessive force, especially with power tools. Use the correct torque setting if available.

After use, wipe the bit clean of any debris with a dry cloth. Store it in a dry place, preferably in a bit holder or case, to prevent rust and damage.

This guide focuses on the T40S size. For other sizes, please refer to Faithfull's product catalog or retailer information for their full range of security bits.

Verify that the screw is indeed a T40 Security TORX (with a pin). This bit is not compatible with standard TORX screws or other security screw types.

Ensure the bit is fully seated in the screw head and apply firm, consistent pressure. Reduce torque if using a power driver to prevent cam-out.

Inspect the bit for signs of excessive wear. Replace the bit if the tip is deformed or rounded, as this will compromise performance and increase the risk of stripping.
