Metallics TP528SBC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do I need a special bit to drive a button head hex pin screw like the TP528SBC?
Yes. The hex pin drive has a post in the center of the hex recess, so a standard hex key or hex bit will not seat. You need a matching pin-in-hex (hex pin) driver bit or key sized to the recess. Order the driver along with the screws if you don't already keep them on the truck.
2) Why would I spec a tamper-resistant screw instead of a standard sheet metal screw on electrical enclosures and covers?
The reason is access control, not holding power. A pin-in-hex button head can't be removed with the bits that ride in a general-purpose driver set, so it's used on panel covers, device plates, enclosure lids and public-area equipment where you want to keep tenants or the public out. For a fastener nobody needs to be locked out of, a plain hex washer head or Phillips sheet metal screw in the same #12 x 3/4 size is the cheaper and faster choice.
3) What is the Metallics part number to order for the 12 x 3/4 button hex pin tamper screws?
Order Metallics TP528SBC. That's the full catalog number for the #12 x 3/4 inch button head hex pin tamper-resistant sheet metal screw, sold in a 100 piece pack.
