Comment on Philips shouldn't exist. Torx plus is the best fight me
kestrel7_7@lemmy.world 9 hours agoThe only reason they’re so common is because of Henry Ford. Ford wanted Robertson screws, but Ford also wanted to make his own screws in-house. Robertson wouldn’t license them, Philips would, the rest is history. Robertson screws are much more common than Philips up in Canada (where they’re from).

? Is this sarcasm. Robertson’s aren’t imperial or metric, they are numbered

It’s Allens that aren’t in arbitrary sizes but their actual dimensions and sold in metric and normal sizes.
