Claim 0:
1. A torque enhancing device, comprising:
a torque contact body having one or more torque driver and/or recessed recipient torque contact surface configurations,
the body having a Z-axis depth or thickness, and
at least one of the one or more torque contact surface configurations comprising a pair of X-axis extending torque contact side walls on the body that are spaced apart by L1 along a Y-axis, and a pair of Y-axis extending torque contact side walls on the body that are spaced apart by L2 along the X-axis, as well as four concave contoured surface portions in the body that are positioned between respective adjacent ends of the X-axis extending torque contact side walls and the Y-axis extending torque contact side walls, and the enhanced torque contact surface having an L2/L1 ratio that is less than 1 as to provide a torque enhancement contact surface configuration, and wherein the torque enhancement contact surface configuration is configured to be operated by a torque generation tool or is configured to operate as a torque generation tool and wherein, on an X-Y axes plane that extends through a most radially outward positioned portion of each of the pair of X-axis extending torque contact side walls of the body, the L2/L1 ratio is at or greater than 60% to less than 100%.
