Security Screws

Security screws with unique heads enable them to be significantly more challenging to remove and more resistant to pressure. They are mostly made from steel with a zinc and chromium coating. They are also known as tamper-proof, anti-tamper, and anti-theft screws and are part of a comprehensive family of professional security fixings.

Tamper-proof screws typically have a star head or Torx head that is not operable by standard screwdrivers. They also come as tamper-resistant flange button types or socket head buttons to keep fittings extra secure, such as re-enforcing billboards. They resist high wind conditions in industries and business setups, ensuring factory machines and machine parts are tightly fitted and protecting operators.

The Enrgtech range of screws includes variants from leading brands of steel and stainless steel materials with plain, black oxide, zinc, and chromium-plated finish. 

Installation of The Screws

These screws require an exact screwdriver type corresponding to the security screw's head type. Generally referred to as Torx drivers, it is essential to check if the Torx driver is shaped correctly to accommodate pin Torx heads. Then the required screw is fixed according to the desired area you work by pushing the head towards the surface of the materials to be inserted.

Types of Security Screws

These can be split into two different types: tamper-resistant and tamper-proof. These different types often need clarification about having the same meaning. However, there is a difference.

Tamper-Resistant Screws

Tamper-resistant screws are installed or removed with a tool specialised for them. These are the most popular screws, and they're frequently used in circumstances where authorised people need access regularly.

Tamper - Proof Screws

Tamper-proof screws A step up; these are next to impossible to remove without the accurate tooling. In some instances, perhaps, even drilling or cutting the screw may be required for their extraction. These are used in more permanent situations.

Types of Screws Available

There are anti-vandal security screw options with different drive types to suit your tooling. They are available in System Zero, Hexalobular Recess, and Cross drive types.

Application Potential of the Security Screws

These screws are the most common, universally recognised, and used in a variety of workplace and public applications, such as:

• They are used in number plates, CCTV poles, rack mounting equipment, computer complex cases, and public bathroom fittings.
• They secure structures in public or private environments where vandalism may be an issue.
• They come with a unique head that makes them almost impossible to remove with standard tools. This means they're instrumental and highly secure.
• They are also found in public benches, lamp posts, school tables, and electrical boxes.
• In addition to theft prevention, they're also designed to show resistance against extreme weather conditions and adverse corrosion from rust.

Conclusion

To summarise, the unique drive style and material are because the primary purpose of these screws is to avoid tampering and deter unauthorised personnel. Depending upon your goals and the degree of safety for your equipment, order the appropriate variety of these available screws from the comfort of your home with quick delivery and dedication.
