Tamper-Resistant vs. Tamper-Proof Screws

There’s a common misconception that Waltham, Massachusetts tamper-proof screws and tamper-resistant screws are the same thing; however, that is not the case. Tamper-resistant fasteners are relatively difficult to remove because they require a relatively uncommon driver to fit the head. In comparison, tamper-proof fasteners are nearly impossible to remove because they require a unique, often custom, tool.

“Resistant” implies that the fastener is relatively difficult to remove with tools that might be found in the average tool chest, thwarting any casual, opportunistic attacks but offering little protection in cases where someone deliberately intends to remove that particular fastener. “Tamper proof” increases security exponentially because the unique driver is virtually impossible to acquire without having purchased that specific fastener styler and the requisite tool needed to install it.
