Doubting if the MBP screws are Phillips, JIS or Frearson

"JIS screws are not designed to "cam-out" or strip the head when overtightened like a Phillips screw, and can be damaged if a Phillips driver is used. JIS drivers can be used in both JIS and Phillips screws with no damage"

What do you think?

I don't really care what type of screw head is on the MacPro. I need to remove the screws to replace screen and I just want to know where to go to get a driver that works. I bought the set of drivers recommended for screen removal /replacement and none in the set are small enough. I just want someone to tell me what will work and where can I get one, i.e., Rat Shack, etc.. Any ideas?

This is very nice information and I may order a set of the JIS drivers but have never needed them when working on a Mac. What exactly is your question?

Hi, thanks for your reply.

I want to know what kind of screws has the MacBook Pro.

I have to buy screwdrivers to open my MacBook Pro, so I want to buy the correct screwdrivers.

If screw isn't phillips, and I use a phillips screwdriver will most probably I will open the MBP, but it may damage the screw head.

Have you had any problems opening Mac?

Did damaged the screws head?

Thanks!

I've opened a lot of Mac Books. The main problem on some has been with the Pentalobe screws and not having a 000.

Ok, may be you are right and you didn't have problems, but i am still thinking that screws are not phillips.

I agree with Mayer -- the problem most often is is just not having a small enough screwdriver. Whether or not they are technically phillips, I've never had a problem removing those screws with a phillips screwdriver. If these screws required a different type of screwdriver, we would have all discovered that years ago. Interesting information though, and I would be curious to try the JIS drivers.
