Yeah plus it's left hand threads so it continuously applies more pressure as you back the stud out.So, just a drill chuck with grippier threads?

Many years ago, my Dad had one of those sets (tamper proof TORX bits) that we loaned to a customer at our parts store. They had some GM vehicle that the ignition module was installed with these screws. Was back in the mid 80s, so it has happened before....probably somebody on the production line grabbed the wrong screws.Picked up one of these cheap tamper proof Torx sets from Harbor Freight to change the MAF sensor on my mom's car today. Thought that was an odd choice for a fastener there but whatever... Anyhow they don't seem too terrible considering the price, which was just over $6 after the 20% off coupon.

Or a bathroom toilet stall wallI think the last time I saw tamper proof Torx was on a video game console.
