What Is a Tamper-Proof Screw?

- Hex socket: A hex socket tamper-proof screw also has a six-sided design with a recessed socked and added security pin.
- One way: Ideally used in permanent installations, one-way screws look like a standard Phillips head type on first glance, but require a specialized tool for insertion that cannot easily reverse the direction of the screw.
- Drilled spanner: Also referred to as snake eyes or pig nose screw heads, the two small indentations in the face of this screw ensure it cannot be easily interfered with.
