Users who want easy removal of equipment prefer to use thumbscrews or knurled screws, so that the equipment can be removed without tools. This can also apply to programming covers, attached accessories and similar.
Users who want removal of the equipment to be somewhat difficult prefer to use tamper-resistant screws, such as tamper resistant Torx®, so that the equipment cannot be easily removed without the proper tool.
Users who want removal of the equipment to be very difficult prefer to use tamperproof screws, so that removal of the equipment is extremely difficult without the proper proprietary tools.
We provide alternatives to the generic fasteners that may better suit your needs. We have an introduction to tamper resistant and tamperproof fasteners, and reasons to use them.
Note that Com-Fastener fasteners are all custom made, and the ones listed should be considered only indicative of what is available. See our explanation. For further information please call or e-mail sales@hy-com.com
