#1103 6-Lobe (TX) Tamper Resistant Punch Pins

Universal Punch Corp. | Precision Tooling

The #1103 6-Lobe (TX) Tamper Resistant Punch Pins from Universal Punch Corp. are designed for manufacturing tamper-resistant fasteners that utilize a six-lobe drive with a center pin security feature. These punch pins form the specialized recess geometry required for tamper-resistant fasteners used in security-sensitive applications.

Tamper-resistant fasteners are widely used in industries where controlled access and product security are important. The #1103 series punch pins are engineered to form the internal six-lobe recess while maintaining the center pin feature that prevents the use of standard drivers. This ensures the fastener can only be installed or removed using the correct tamper-resistant tool.
