Safety Technology International STI-KIT-81 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What kind of driver bit is the STI KIT-81, and which screws does it drive?
The STI KIT-81 is a snake eye tamper bit, the two-pin style driver used on snake eye tamper resistant screws. It drives the tamper resistant screws supplied in STI's KIT-81, KIT-82 and KIT-84 kits. A standard Phillips, Torx or hex driver will not engage a snake eye head, so you need this bit (or an equivalent snake eye driver) to install or remove those fasteners.
2) Do I get screws with the KIT-81, or just the bit?
The KIT-81 pairs the snake eye bit with #8 x 2 in. tamper resistant stainless steel screws, supplied as a set of 4. So one order covers both the fastener and the driver needed to seat it, which is the usual snag when a tech shows up to mount a cover or call point and has no snake eye driver on the truck.
3) I need to remove existing snake eye screws on an STI cover. Is the KIT-81 bit the right tool?
If the cover was installed with STI snake eye tamper screws from KIT-81, KIT-82 or KIT-84, this bit engages them for removal as well as installation. It is a two-pin snake eye pattern, so confirm the head on your existing screw shows two round holes rather than a slot, star or hex socket before ordering.
4) Are the KIT-81 screws stainless, and can I use them outdoors?
Yes, the snake eye screws supplied are stainless steel, which is why they get specified for protective covers and exterior or washdown locations where a plated screw would streak and seize. The bit itself is sold alongside them in the same kit.
5) Is there only one version of the STI KIT-81 to order?
One configuration, ordered as model KIT-81. There are no finish, length or drive-size choices to specify, so a facilities or MRO buyer standardizing on snake eye hardware across a building can reorder the same part number every time.
