Screwing
Phillips
To improve slotted screws, a second slot was added to the screw head, and in order to provide more contact surface the centre was widened as well. This head shape prevailed for a long time. The bit cannot move outside, but if the contact pressure is not strong enough, it might slip and oscillate, which could also damage screw and bit.
Torx
The advantage of Torx screws is the extended grip surface for the bit. Instead of two slots, as on a Phillips screw, the Torx screw has three slots shaped like a hexagon head. The rounded edges help prevent material fatigue.
Tamper-proof Torx Bo screws with safety pin
So called safety screws contain a pin that protrudes into the drive profile so that "normal" Torx® tools cannot be used. The bit`s bearing this pictogram can be used to unfasten those screws.
Pozidriv
The Pozidriv screw is an improvement of the Phillips screw, as it provides not only a cross-head but also additional notches. The bit provides edges that grip into the notches. This design protects the bit from slipping through.
Flat-head
The slotted screw was the first screw on the market and is still used today. The disadvantage of this head shape is that the bit can easily slip through, which might damage the screw. Also when the screw is turned quickly, the bit may slip off. This screw head shape is mainly used for manual screwing.
Hexagon socket
The Allen screw can also be conside-red an improvement of the Phillips screw. Like the Torx screw, the Allen screw also provides an extended grip surface, and it is very robust. However, this screw is not suitable for fast-turning machines, but is more widely used for manual screwing, especially in the metalworking field.
