HIGH SECURITY, HIGH PERFORMANCE
FASTENING SYSTEM
Patented REVX® security fastener offered by Bryce
Fastener, Inc., Gilbert, AZ uses a “saw tooth” design to
optimize both security and performance. Security features
include: a large radius on the removal face to repel
common tools, 7 fins to reject standard security bit tips,
and a removal bit that can only be manufactured by Bryce
Fastener.
Performance features include a perpendicular driving
face (which optimizes torque), and
a tapered socket for stick fit
control of the fastener. Improved
security and lowered installation
costs are both gained.
Fasteners are available in
sizes ranging from # 2 (M2 metric)
to 5/8-11 (M16 metric), in
stainless steel and alloy.
REVX® was designed to
overcome faults found in the
tamperproof screw industry.
Originally patents and trade
secrets kept security screw
bits difficult to obtain. Patents
have lapsed, and unrestricted
manufacture of security bit tips
has commenced in the Orient.
Security bit tip kits are now distributed in retail

hardware stores. At present tamper proof screws can
legally only claim they are “tamper resistant.” This affects
many public assets including prisons.
REVX® has developed a multi- pronged approach to
solve this problem.
[1] LEGAL Trademarks and patents were gained
specifically targeting those countries most likely to
manufacture security bit tips. This included many Asian
patents.
[2] TRADE SECRETS Bryce fastener has developed
trade secrets and specialized machines to make its bits.
Once patents have lapsed, these developments will
continue to keep REVX® bits secure.
[3] CONTROL OF BITS Only Bryce Fastener
manufactures REVX® bits and
requires every distributor track
their ownership. No retail or
internet sales will be allowed.
[4] PERFORMANCE The
most popular security screw is Sixlobe
and Torx® pin. These use
industry standard specifications
which diminish their security.
Specifications for REVX® have
been reengineered, making them
both more tamper resistant and
efficient to install than the most
popular styles.
Bryce fastener Inc was
established in 1972. The last 20
years have been dedicated to
making security fasteners more
secure.
In that time, it has assimilated the widest array of
manufacturing machinery, patents, and trade secrets in
the industry. They presently produce Key-Rex®, Keyedlok®,
Penta-Plus, Penta-nut, Core lock, and Key-Rex
nut.
Key-Rex® fasteners have a 99.99996 success rate.
