Metallics TP817SOC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the TP817SOC a tamper-resistant screw, and what driver does it take?
It is a tamper-resistant machine screw with a spanner (snake eye) drive, which takes a two-pin spanner bit rather than a Phillips or slotted driver. Plan on having the matching spanner bit on the truck before you get to the job, since nothing in a standard bit set will turn it.
2) Does an oval head tamper screw sit flush like a flat head?
No. An oval head seats into a countersunk hole but leaves a low rounded crown above the surface, so it is not fully flush the way a flat head is. If your plate or cover is drilled for a flat head and needs to finish dead flush, the oval head is the wrong profile.
3) How many screws come in a pack of Metallics TP817SOC?
They ship 100 pieces to the pack, which suits a crew doing a run of tamper-resistant plate or device work rather than a single repair.
4) What is the Metallics part number for the 8-32 x 2-1/2 oval head spanner screw?
Order it as Metallics TP817SOC. That is the manufacturer part number for the 8-32 x 2-1/2 oval head spanner tamper-resistant machine screw in the 100 piece pack.
