The KIT-19038 is a tamper-resistant snake eye security bit designed for installing Kidde KIT-81 and KIT-82 tamper-resistant screw kits on fire alarm pull stations and notification devices. The 5/16" hex shank fits standard bit holders, impact drivers, and multi-bit screwdrivers already in the truck.

Why carry this bit

Kidde's tamper-resistant screws on pull stations and notification devices require this specific snake eye (spanner) pattern to install and service. Keeping one in the tool bag means no delays when a spec calls for tamper-resistant hardware or when servicing existing installations that already have it in place.
