Carlyle Socket – Tamper Proof 5 Star Plus – 3/8in Drive – TS55H (S38TS55H)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. S38TS55H

Carlyle's S38TS55H is a TS55H bit socket for big 5 star tamper proof screws. A 3/8in square drive means you can use a ratchet for speed or a torque wrench for doing the screw back up, and the S2 steel bit, hollowed to clear the security pin, sits in a mirror polish chrome plated chrome vanadium socket.

Good to know

• Ratchet, extension or torque wrench? Any 3/8in drive tool fits; an extension helps reach screws set back in a panel or housing.
• What if the bit won't go fully in? Check for dirt or paint in the head and around the pin; a bit sitting proud can slip and chew the lobes.
• Is TS55H right for my screw? It should drop in with no twist before it bites; if it turns a little before gripping, a smaller TS size is needed.

Which one?

The next size down is the TS50H (S38TS50H); for a full set up to TP55H, see the Carlyle 11 Piece 5 Star Plus Tamper Proof Socket Set TP8H – TP55H (CBSTTP11).
