Triangle tamper proof security bit

Out of the hundreds of security bits I've seen online...I can't find this one! It's a triangle, but with the hole in the center for the tamper proof pin.

Anyone know where to find one?

What's it for

maybe if you enter driver bit for whatever it's for may bring up better results

A Christmas tree base that spins...there's about 15 of these screws, about 11 recessed

Can you post a pic of the screw I'm not giving up easily

McMaster-Carr has triangle bits. If you can't find the security version you can use a flathead to break the post and then use one of these regular triangle bits.

Very good idea that

the right sized spanner will work too... not ideal, but enough to get the screws out.

Interesting- I have a security bit set with about 20 different bits in it, and no triangular ones. The closest I get are phillips type bits with only three tines.
