Comment on The torque better not be too strong with this one
MutilationWave@lemmy.world 6 days agoWhich is why it sucks. I go to work and I see a cross cut, I’m going to use my Phillips head of appropriate size to pull it out or put it in. Did 8 pozidrive have any indication it’s not Phillips? I’ve honestly never seen one.
I don’t have any pozidrive bits but I have two sets of long torx, some double sided torx for my hand driver, and a bunch of little torx bits in my bag to hand out to the kid that came to his first day of work with nothing but a #2 Phillips.

Yes, the head is visually distinctive from Phillips, with four smaller cuts in between the main ones.

Good to know if I ever see one.

I think it’s pretty likely that you’ve seen loads and never known they were different. The difference is small enough that you wouldn’t realise it was significant until you were told:

Yep. I know it now. I just press hard and get em with my Phillips haha. I’ll replace them with torx if I have the chance. Fucking stupid to make them look the same.
