Its used for flat head screws and could also be used for star head screws.

IMPORTANT POINT

Select the correct size screw driver to fit the slot. Too small a screw driver may twist and damage the tip, and possibly damage the screw head. Too large a screw driver won't fit in the slot properly and will slip out when turned.

How do you make a Beyblade perfomance tip?

To make a Beyblade tip is easy, but you will need an existing tip to make a new one.

You now have a stamina/attack tip.

What is a Phillips screw driver?

Phillips, or Phillips head, refers to the shape of the screwdriver's tip. It forms an X or a cross at the tip, instead of being straight as in a flat head. Phillips head screws and screwdrivers are less likely to slip while being turned, but it's more important to use the right size to avoid damaging the screw head.
