Product Information
Full details
The Expert By Facom PZ 1 x 100mm Pozi Screwdriver is a professional-grade hand tool designed for tradespeople and home DIYers who require precise, reliable torque for Pozi-drive fasteners. Its primary benefit lies in the combination of a high-quality chrome vanadium blade and an ergonomic bi-material handle that reduces hand fatigue during extended use. While it offers excellent grip and durability, users should note that the PZ 1 tip is specifically intended for Pozi screws and is not compatible with Phillips or Slotted fasteners, which could lead to cam-out or damage if mismatched.

FAQs
Is this tool compatible with Phillips head screws?
No. Pozi (PZ) and Phillips (PH) screwdrivers have different tip geometries. Using this tool on a Phillips screw will cause slipping and damage.
What is the total length of the screwdriver?
The overall length of the tool is 205mm, with a 100mm blade length.
Can I use this screwdriver for electrical repairs?
No. This tool is not VDE-rated or insulated; it should never be used on live electrical circuits.
Why is the handle color-coded blue?
The blue color-coding is a standard identifier used by Expert By Facom to denote Pozi-drive screwdrivers within their product range.
What material is the blade made from?
The blade is constructed from high-quality chrome vanadium steel, which is then chrome-plated for durability.
Troubleshooting
Screwdriver tip slipping out of screw
Verify you are using a PZ 1 screw and not a Phillips head screw, as they are not interchangeable.
Surface rust appearing on blade
Wipe the blade with a light machine oil and store in a low-humidity environment.
Handle feeling greasy or slippery
Clean the bi-material handle with mild soap and water, ensuring it is completely dry before further use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Expert By Facom PZ 1 screwdriver, avoid using it as a prying tool or a chisel, as this can bend the chrome vanadium shaft or chip the precision-engineered tip. Compatibility is limited specifically to PZ 1 Pozi-drive screws; ensure you are not using this tool on Phillips (PH) screws, as the internal geometry is different and will cause damage to both the tool and the fastener. For maintenance, keep the tool clean of metal filings and debris to maintain the integrity of the sand-blasted tip. If the blade becomes soiled with grease, wipe it down with a clean, dry cloth. Store in a dry, organized environment to prevent surface corrosion.
