I get so tired of stripped screws from my Torx sets that are too cheap. Are there any titanium ones out there that won't mar down my Torx screws ?

I am an engineer. I don't think that Titanium Torx screwdrivers will solve your problem of stripping screws. In fact it could make the problem worse if you do not have a precision fit correct size screwdriver aligned properly with the screw head and maintain the proper pressure on it while in use. You may need to use a solvent to loosen "Loc-Tite" type of chemicals that are holding the screws in place first. But the screwdriver tip must be exactly matched to the screw head and it must be held precisely perpendicular to the plane the screw is fitted into and sufficient pressure must be maintained to keep the tip from slipping out during use.

Not the old screw in type, I believe its the bayonet type. They're actually called T-shank.

No. This set does not have the security torx bits. I did find a smaller set that has them though http://www.amazon.com/Enkay-3033-33-Piece-Security-Insert/dp/B0009U6AB4/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid;=1415816561&sr;=8-3&keywords;=security+torx+bit

Take a chance , I have not used on any thing with that kind of Torgue requirements . I was sick and tried having my quick change drill bits breaking in seconds .

I think they should just go slow with even pressure. It would be better to tap out the Torx head a bit in order to get a better bite. As LoosMoose emphasized these are designed for very small screws. Good luck.

No. Torx bits with holes are security bits; this kit does not have security bits.

Get the T40 Torx socket for a 3/8" ratchet wrench (not a hex wrench). The bolts are too tight for a screw driver. You can buy a single socket or a set of sockets online or any Hdwe./Auto parts store.

you will need 2 sizes. Torx 4 & 5. most of them are torx 4 but there is 1-2 screws that is for a torx 5

I bought a tool at Auto-zone. It's green and has a bunch of torx bits all nicely packaged into a fold-able/deploy-able frame, has TITAN printed on the side. It has sizes to fit all the screws on all my Kershaw knives, me thinks it was around 10 bucks.

Just the proper size "Torx" tool is all you need to disassemble the old units and mount the new ones. It helps the operation if someone holds the lid while doing the work!Good luck!P.S. With the new StrongArms mounted, my lid goes up by itself!! Very good items.V. Tora

Sorry for the late reply. It contains a pretty standard set of torx bits where the largest is a T40. Note, if you're looking for "security torx" this set does not have any... I made that mistake once.

1.25, but I learned that the set screws are too short. They do not make full contact with the rails before passing the threads. Also, hex set screws would be much better than the slotted ones provided in order to apply proper torque. The trouble is finding them. They are 10mm, 1.00 thread.

I have used the Kreg screws and other screws from another supplier. They work well. McFeeley's sells the same type.

I'll be super honest - I used a drill and the torx bit and just tightened them until they wouldn't go any further. I've periodically checked them, but they are all still tight tight. I didn't bother with a torque wrench.

If we are talking about the CN15, there is no need for torx screws as any small sized phillips head screwdriver will do for getting the bottom panel off. At least on my CN15-A5. Of course I got the notebook used so it's possible somebody swapped out the panel screws. For the fan noise, I have set a personal power options profile using balanced with only 90% CPU power from the advanced options and that has kept the noise at a minimum for mundane tasks such as internet and other basic tasks.

Basicly, yes. I can't remember if it was a torx or hex screw that came on the rod end but you can reuse your existing torx screw if desired.

mine was a hard kydex sheath, but had cheap rivets that rusted in 1 day (in all fairness, I tookit diving in the ocean). The titanium edge also evaporated in one day, when exposed to salt.
