What is a phillips screwdriver?

• A phillips screwdriver is a type of hand tool used to tighten and loosen flat head type screws in a variety of tasks and applications. They feature a phillips (cross) type tip to easily slot into cross type screw and allow torque. Phillips screwdrivers are one of the most common types of screwdrivers available and are ideal for driving with precision and uniformity.

What is the difference between a phillips and a pozidriv screwdriver?

• The main difference between a pozidriv screwdriver and a phillips screwdriver is the tip and design of the screws they are intended to be used with. Phillips screwdriver heads feature rounded flanks and corners that are designed to cam-out of the screw head if too much torque is applied. Pozidriv tips feature straight parallel flanks and additional edges to help improve torque and prevent cam-out, allowing a tighter drive and minimal wear.
