Metallics MTP416SBC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What driver do I need for a button head star screw with a pin in the middle?
A pin-in-star (pin-in-Torx) bit, not a standard Torx. The MTP416SBC has a pin standing up in the center of the star recess, which blocks a solid Torx driver, so you need a tamper-resistant bit with a matching hollow center. If you are installing these on enclosures or cover plates in a public area, buy the bits at the same time as the screws.
2) Are these security screws suitable for keeping tenants out of electrical enclosures and device covers?
That is what the pin-in-star head is for. Metallics catalogs the MTP416SBC as an electrical fastener, and the tamper-resistant recess means a common screwdriver or standard Torx bit will not back it out, which is why property managers and electrical contractors use them on panel covers, device plates, and fixture housings in shared or public spaces.
3) Will a button head screw sit flush like a flat head?
No. A button head has a low, rounded dome that sits on top of the surface rather than sinking into a countersunk hole. If your part is countersunk and you need a flush finish, the MTP416SBC is the wrong head style and you want a flat head tamper screw in the same M4 x 16mm size instead.
4) How many screws come in a pack of Metallics MTP416SBC?
One hundred screws per pack. For fleet or MRO use that covers a lot of covers at four screws apiece, and keeping a single pack on the shelf standardizes the tamper head across a facility so one bit works everywhere.
