FAQs
What types of screws can I use with this set?
This set is designed for standard slotted (flat-head) screws and Phillips head screws. It includes the most common sizes (5mm, 6mm slotted; PH1, PH2 Phillips) found in household applications.
Are these screwdrivers suitable for professional use?
This set is primarily intended for light-duty household tasks and DIY projects. For demanding professional applications requiring high torque and extreme durability, a more specialized set might be recommended.
How do I identify which screwdriver to use?
The handles are colour-coded for easy identification. Refer to the markings on the handles or the product description to match the screwdriver type and size to your screw.
Can I use these for prying open objects?
No, these screwdrivers are designed solely for driving screws. Using them for prying can damage the tip and the object you are working on, and it is a safety hazard.
What is the length of the screwdriver shafts?
The set includes two slotted screwdrivers (5mm x 75mm and 6mm x 100mm) and two Phillips screwdrivers (PH1 x 75mm and PH2 x 100mm). The numbers represent the shaft length in millimeters.
How should I clean and maintain the screwdrivers?
Wipe them clean with a cloth after use and store them in a dry place to prevent rust. Avoid exposing them to excessive moisture.
Troubleshooting
Screwdriver tip seems to be stripping the screw head.
Ensure you are using the correct size and type of screwdriver for the screw. Apply firm, consistent pressure directly into the screw head while turning slowly. Do not overtighten.
Handle feels slippery during use.
Wipe the handle with a dry cloth. If the issue persists, consider using work gloves for a more secure grip.
Rust spots appearing on the metal shaft.
Clean the shaft thoroughly with a rust remover or fine steel wool. Dry completely and apply a light coat of oil to prevent future rust. Store in a dry place.
