Torx T-27

[K-Dog]

Every torx set I have has a T-27. I have never used any of them. Does any one know where a T-27 might be used ?

 

[Kmp259]

Harley's....

 

[zx2slow]

VW/Audi.

 

[AndrewV]

Ford dirt deflector panels. Yeah they have a technical name, "undercarriage panels" that's all they do.

Now a t10, you'll likely hear tpms rebuild kits.

 

[toolmutt]

Echo.

 

[SouthCoastMudder]

Polaris

 

[VictorBravo]

Audi X2

I've got 2 broken ones and 5 new ones in reserve.

It's been awhile but I believe seat belts are mounted to cars with a T27

 

[steed andersen]

Everywhere on Stihl & Husqvarna saws.

 

[claythrower]

Anything torx on a knapheide body. Took me a little while to find one, ended up buying one off the truck.

Yep. I've had my eye out for a nice t handle t27 to put in my chainsaw bag for field use.

 

[Askme42]

I think there's a lot more t27 than people realize. They just get by with T25.

WHIA, green handle.

Nope - seat belts are T50. I carry a 3/8" socket-bit in my small box just for that purpose.

All Kenworth trucks with the flat aluminum panel dashboards use T27 screws to retain the panels.

 

[sk farmer]

yup on both kenworth and polaris.

 

[Skin]

+Briggs and Stratton engines. Paddle bolts for Toro single stages made over the last 15 years.

 

[t.ruckus.rex]

A normal, 1/4" x 20 screw?

 

[superchargedv8]

i used a t27 today to take off a ford door latch assembly.

 

[OHMS LAW]

Isn't that the size of the screw that holds rotors on Silverado

I am pretty sure the retainer bolt on the Silverado is a t30. I have used a t27 on a brake rotor once, but for the life of me I can't remember what it was on.

Renault, citroen and peugoet. Belly pan and wheel arch tray bolts

SO TRUE... I can't tell you how many Harley's come in with the 27's ruined.

 

[plinker]

Mack dashboard screws among other's.

 

[AmishFury]

current gen dodge/chrysler minivans use them on the tail light assembly

Yup , all over Macks and Volvos

Yupp. My set didn't include it but I got a Bahco sitting conspicuously amidst the main set. Easy to find !

 

[tyheuser]

I work at a kenworth dealer, I would say a t27 is my most used torx bit!

 

[Notgrownup]

All over my Harley and because a lot of people use T25 in the T27 fasteners and they strip, it's one of the most hated Torx fastener in the Harley Davidson forum I frequent..Mine on my 07 with 88000 miles are mostly still original.

 

[MemphisR32]

Very common on my VW

 

[xela456]

Most stihl hardware is t27.even though they usually come with a t25.

 

[Parrothead]

I am not sure what I use it on as I don't remember things like that, but looking at my T27, I've used it plenty. Maybe tail light assemblies? Not really sure, but I bought it new and it's certainly used. Hmm...now I am curious.

 

[Scimmia]

Yup , all over Macks and Volvos

Bingo. Volvo interiors seem use this everywhere.

 

[Bobcat753]

Lots of European origin chainsaws have T27 screws. For example Dolmar, Husqvarna, Stihl to name a few.

 

[Terracar]

Sadly, T27 is the size I always seem to need, but all my sets, that is the size that is broken or missing. Though I can't remember what I use them on.

I believe the seat belt and door strikers were T-47 back in the 80's. I am not sure about the newer cars. It's also been awhile!
