Carlyle 3/8Drive T40H Tamper Torx (CS38T40H)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CS38T40H

The CS38T40H is a T40H tamper star bit on a 3/8 inch drive, with a hole in the tip that clears the pin of security star bolts. It has an S2 steel bit in a mirror polished chrome socket with a knurled band and a chamfered drive end.

Good to know

• How do I spot a pinned T40 bolt? Shine a light into the head: a small pin standing in the centre means a plain T40 bit won't go in, and you need this hole-tip version.
• Can it do ordinary T40 bolts as well? Yes. The hole only clears the pin, so it turns a plain T40 head too.
• How do I avoid breaking the pin or the bit? Keep the bit square and fully seated, and turn smoothly. Levering it sideways is what snaps tamper bits.

Which one?

For a plain T40, our range has the CS38T40. For a case of tamper star bits from T7H to T60H, see the Carlyle 13 Piece Star Tamper Proof Socket Set T7H – T60H (CBSTH13).
