CENTURY STAR (TORX) S2 INSERT BIT - T27 x 1"Drive Torx-head fasteners with confidence using the Century Drill T27 star insert bit. The S2 tool steel body is heat-treated to 58-62 HRC, giving an ideal balance of hardness and toughness - resisting wear while flexing rather than shattering under high torque. T27 falls between the standard T25 deck-screw size and the structural T30, often used on automotive interior trim.
- S2 tool steel, heat-treated to 58-62 HRC
- 1" overall length, 1/4" hex shank
- Fits hand drivers, 1/4" hex bit holders, impact-ready chucks, and quick-change collets
- Precision-machined tip for secure fastener engagement
- T27 size for heavier deck screws, some automotive trim/interior fasteners (Honda, Toyota), and light structural fasteners
- MPN 68427 (Century 684XX Torx insert bit family: last 2 digits = Torx number)
Tip: Seat the bit fully in the recess before applying torque. Insert bits cam out and round the screw recess almost instantly under angled load, which is the #1 cause of stripped Torx fasteners. For repeated driving, step up to a longer power bit with torsion zone.
