Carlyle 1/4 Drive T7H Tamper Torx (CS14T7H)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CS14T7H

One of the smallest security star bits we list: a T7H tamper tip held in a 1/4 inch drive socket. It is made for tiny pinned star screws, with an S2 steel bit in a polished chrome socket, and runs on a 1/4 inch ratchet or a spinner handle.

Good to know

• How hard can I turn a bit this small? Gently. A T7 tip is thin, so use a short handle and finger force; a long ratchet can twist the tip off or strip the screw before you feel it go.
• Do I need the tamper version? Only if the screw has a pin in the centre. The hole in this tip clears the pin, and it still turns a plain T7 screw.
• How do I check the size? Offer the bit up before turning. If it rocks or sits proud, stop and look again: tiny star sizes are hard to tell apart by eye.

Which one?

A second T7H is in our range, the S14T7H, which pairs an S2 bit with a chrome vanadium socket. For a full set of pinned sizes, the Carlyle 13 Piece Star Tamper Proof Socket Set T7H – T60H (CBSTH13) starts at T7H.
