Why Torx? 200

posted by  someone claiming to be dschwied on  Fri Oct 30 07:58 CST 2009 [RELATED]

I'm puzzled about why mfrs have adopted such widespread use of Torx fasteners. I could see them where higher torque is desirable, but I seem to see them in so many plain Jane applications. The downside of Torx is clear--fumbling for multiple bits instead of a one or two-size fits all Philips--but I just don't see the upside.
