Ferrule For Battery Operated Drill

[Runningman 148]

I recently bought a pack of screws, but didn't notice they were designed for use on MDF

Although I have a large range of Ferrules, none of them fit the head of the screws purchased

On the pack the Ferrule head is marked as TX

Where could I obtain the Ferrule required without having to buy a whole set of different sizes ?

Tx denotes the head is Torx which is a trade mark and made under license. These come in a variety of sizes from Tx5 the smallest  to Tx60 the largest. If your screws are all the same head size I suggest you take one with you to buy the correct size. These can be purchased from Wickes but would less expensive at Toolstation.

Hope this helps.

Hi forgeman and RJRB and thanks !

Just a thought.....if you identify the size that you need for a one off job you will be better buying the 3 pack of one size for £2.59

If you look closely at the screw heads you may see a pin in the middle where the bit fits they are a tamperproof version .
