TORX PLUS® Drive

The TORX PLUS® Drive was designed to enhance assembly line

performance. Manufacturers all over the world have realized

significant improvements and cost savings by switching to the TORX

PLUS® Drive.

TORX PLUS® Drive SolutionsThe straight, vertical sidewalls of the TORX PLUS® Drive System

virtually eliminate camout. Also, the TORX PLUS® recess completely

encloses the driver tip, reducing tool slippage as well as costly and

unsightly damage to the fastener and surrounding surfaces.

The elliptically-based geometric configuration of the TORX PLUS®

Drive System maximizes engagement between driver and fastener.

It spreads driving forces over the surface area, extending tool life.

TORX PLUS® Drive is the only drive system designed to ensure

optimum torque transmission and, ultimately, required clamp

load. With a true 0° drive angle , the TORX PLUS® system virtually

eliminates the radial forces that can cause stress on fastener

recesses. Ergonomic studies demonstrate that the TORX PLUS®

Drive System can reduce fatigue and muscular stress during the

manual assembly of fasteners. That’s because little or no end load

is required to keep the driver engaged in the recess.

AUTOSERT® Feature

The AUTOSERT® Feature is the high productivity answer to high rpm

engagement on the assembly line. The patented feature is a TORX

PLUS® Drive exclusive. Compound angle guide ramps, used at each

lobe, allow for higher rpm engagement. It’s the perfect solution for

automated, robotic and other assembly situations where the driver

bit is continuously rotating. The AUTOSERT® feature even helps in

manual assembly, creating a self-centering and engaging action.
