Need Help with fastener in ClassicTrailer

[340Cuda]

I have a Classic trailer and its a square headed driver that fits those screws, at least that was all I found in my tool box that worked.

ya also might have what is known as a clutch head screw they kind look like a figure 8---most likely ya have a #2 square head screw---Mobile homes,RV and trailers use the #2 screws a lot do not strip out the slots in the head as easily as a phillips does especially if ya are installing self drilling fasteners--Comp

That makes sense. 8 pt, dual # 2 square driver. Commonly available from Black and Decker.
Just shows how much I know about enclosed trailers ...

I thought it was a stupid question to ask, but I am glad I did.

As always thanks everyone.

Yes they are square drives. I have a Classic and replaced all the screws on the front stainless trim panels. It took me a while to figure out what fit and how to get them out......I used a drill driver and all you need to do is use a hammer and give the screws a couple taps with the driver in the screw. Then they come right out and I replaced them with stainless screws. Interior screws should be no probelm with rust.......

Nope, not a Robertson but agree that it's probably a #2 double square (8 point). I bought a bunch of Torx because they look the same but don't work. At least now I know what to look for.

Snap-On lists an eight point driver bit that is like a #2 square drive bit. I bought and built a Tuff-Shed for the back yard to put bikes,lawnmowers, the edger and the pool chemicals in, it not only had #2 square headed fasteners, it came with a couple extra square tool bits that fit a 1/8" nut driver.I just bought two of the Snap On bits, the receipt is at work,I'll try and remember to look up the Snap On part number for the eight point bit and post it Monday. Somebody remind me if I forget.

[Greg Reimer 7376]

Snap On part number for the tool bit IS-- BTSS2. It's called a Double square #2 bit. I bought a magnetic bit holder for it, as well, 1/4" square drive on one end,1/4" hex on the other, part# TMBS8 A. Hope this helps. Also Torx are numbered-there is no such thing as a metric or an American Torx bit or fastener.
