I've been looking at buying a set of Torx screwdrivers for taking small
things apart, the sort of screw that's 2mm across. But there seem to be
two
notations out the
T4, T5, T6, etc
and
T0.5, T0.6, T1.0 etc (often they're quoted as T0.5x40, where I'm guessing
40 is the shaft length), such as these:

I understand the T4, T5 notation - I think the screws in my phone are
something like T4 or T5. But what does the other notation mean?
I'm guessing it might be something to do with the internal dimensions:

in inches, but it still doesn't make sense. Perhaps T0.5=T5, T0.6=T6?
Thanks

Whilst I can't explain the size conventions, if you need a torx driver for
you phone, search on Fleabay. 353 hits just now for torx in the phone
category.
