What are the advantages of Star head screws?

Star screws, sometimes known as Star screws, are a simple and efficient solution to many drive problems. It has the advantages of virtually eliminating ’contact point stresses’, ’shearing’ and excessive ’end load’ requirements on the driver. By reducing the risk of 'cam out' there is less chance of damage to the screw, and less wear and tear on the driver. A such, Star is often regarded as a higher quality alternative to slotted, phillips and hexagon head types.
