Description

13-Piece Star Bit Socket Set with Tamper Pin

Overview

This 13-piece Torx socket set delivers professional-grade security fastening solutions with integrated tamper pins—ideal for automotive technicians, industrial maintenance teams, and repair shops handling tamper-resistant fasteners. The set spans three drive sizes (1/4", 3/8", and 1/2") with graduated Torx sizes, making it essential for engine work, electronics assembly, and security-critical applications. If you need extended reach or additional security options, consider pairing this with a long-reach star bit socket set or a comprehensive female Torx socket collection for maximum versatility.

Key Features

  • Tamper Pin Design: Integral security pin blocks unauthorized access to tamper-resistant fasteners
  • Chrome Vanadium Construction: Durable Cr-V material resists wear, corrosion, and fatigue under repeated use
  • Knurled Grip Bands: Textured surface area ensures secure hand control and reduces slipping during high-torque applications
  • Three Drive Sizes: Covers 1/4", 3/8", and 1/2" square drives for flexibility across tool collections
  • Graduated Torx Sizes: T8 through T70, covering the full spectrum of common security fastener applications
  • Professional Finish: Matt chrome finish with engraved size markings for quick identification
  • Organized Storage Case: Molded blue plastic case with precision-fitted compartments protects sockets and ensures job-site portability

Why This Set Works for Your Business

Margin & Turnover: Security fastener demand grows steadily in automotive service, electronics repair, and OEM maintenance contracts. Tamper-resistant Torx work commands premium labor rates—having this set positions your shop to capture these high-value jobs.

Differentiation: Not all shops stock tamper pin sockets. This positions you as capable of handling specialized repairs that competitors may decline, expanding your service menu.

Operational Efficiency: Single-set solution eliminates the need for multiple socket purchases. Three drive sizes mean technicians spend less time changing tool holders and more time turning fasteners.

Durability: Chrome vanadium construction withstands the abuse of professional shops. Low replacement frequency = lower tool inventory costs.
