Security screws are designed to be tamper-resistant and are primarily employed to safeguard important equipment such as ATM machines, prison fences, license plates, vehicles, and other critical installations. Their tamper-proof nature stems from the fact that they cannot be removed using a standard screwdriver. This feature is achieved due to the unique design of the screw head, which differs from batch to batch, and the accompanying special screwdriver provided to authorized users. This tool's unique configuration ensures it cannot be easily replicated elsewhere. Below are the various types of security screws available.

This tool's unique configuration ensures it cannot be easily replicated elsewhere. Below are the various types of security screws available.
One Way Screws
One-way screws, also known as irreversible screws, feature a distinctive drive style that restricts their removal to only one direction of driver movement. Attempting to move the driver in the wrong direction will cause the screw head to cam out, rendering it immovable. This functionality is achieved through the manufacturing of the drives in quadrants, which align seamlessly with the driver's momentum when moved correctly. The primary benefit of one-way screws is their ease of installation using a standard slotted bit, while ensuring they cannot be removed with a standard tool. Instead, their corresponding removal tool is required for safe and secure detachment.
These screws are predominantly used to secure items in public spaces, such as bathroom fixtures, floor-mounted safes, and license plates. High-quality one-way screws offer lasting reliability and can be relied upon for long-term protection.
Spanner Security Screws
The spanner security screw, often referred to as the "Snake Eye" due to the elegant, snake-like groove on its head, necessitates a unique drill bit for proper operation. Ideally, this bit should be part of the two-dot drive system. Spanner security screws are designed to safeguard public installations that require frequent removal, making them unsuitable for one-way screws. For instance, gutters in many cities are secured using spanner security screws. They are also employed in jail grills and bathroom stalls.
These screws are designed to be tamper-proof; they can only be safely removed with the dimensionally matched spanner bit, ensuring the protected component remains undamaged.
Torx is a distinctive type of security screw featuring six lobes and a central pin, which require the use of specialized security bits for safe and efficient installation and removal. These screws are characterized by their standard six-lobe (stardrive) design and an additional central pin. The notable advantage of Torx screws lies in their dual-layer security: the lobes provide tamper-resistance, while the pin adds an extra level of protection, ensuring enhanced security.
