Kinmar Permanent by Hafren Security Fasteners
The Kinmar Permanent screw is a true one-way fastener designed for permanent installations where no future access is needed. Its unique shape makes unauthorized removal extremely difficult without specialized tooling or destruction. However, its broad, flat top offers limited resistance to physical attacks like grinding or gripping tools. The overall security relies more on deterrence than invulnerability.

Ultra-Lok II by Loss Prevention Fasteners
The Ultra-Lok II® features a proprietary keyway with a robust center stud, adding strong protection against tampering with standard tools. Tools are restricted and require authorization to purchase, increasing control—but not eliminating the possibility of eventual tool access. The button head design also limits grip area for pliers, especially when paired with proper torque. Minimum order quantities may limit use for small projects, but this fastener offers solid mid-tier security where distribution control is important.
