Triple Square is one name and XZN is the real name. Yes they have 12
points but the angle of the corners is different from normal 12 point
bits. The XZN has sharper corners to resist rounding.

Here is the CV tool version, the longer thin shank helps clear the CV
boot on the ones blocked by the angle of the CV axle.

M8 is the size needed and that means it is the size for bolts with M8
threads.
