Torx sockets or Torx drivers? I would think Screwfix would have them, whichever they are.

Yes, cheapo ones probably good enough at Halfords, good ones but often at high prices in a proper tool shop (if you have one within reach).

Buying torx sockets - where from? - 659FBE
I bought a Draper set of security bits for about GBP6 (not their cheap range) which includes Torx to T40 and Hex to 6 mm AF. They are all marked Chome Vanadium.

The kit contains innumerable other security bits and totals about 30 pieces.

For the larger sizes where a torque wrench or considerable torque may be needed, I buy the ones with an integral 1/2" drive socket - Halfords sell a reasonable range. Generally, you only need a few of these so I buy them piecemeal.

659.
