Content
Figure 5D is a top view of a head 530 of the lateral approach fastener 528 of FIG. 5C, according to one embodiment. The head 530 can include a drive recess 538. The drive recess 538, or other torque-receiving is configured to receive a drive member of a fastening tool (not shown) used to install the lateral approach fastener 528. The drive recess 538 can be configured to have any one of a variety of shapes including slotted, Torx, Torx plus, Philips, Quadrex, Pozidriv, square recess, tri-wing, spanner, or the like. The drive recess 538 can be centered on a longitudinal axis of the lateral approach fastener 528 which aligns with a longitudinal axis of a lateral approach fastener opening 526 when the lateral approach fastener 528 is inserted into the opening. Of course, those of skill in the art recognize that the shape and configuration of the drive member and the drive recess 538 can be reversed and thus comprise an embodiment within the scope of the present disclosure.
