Product Information
Full details
The Facom EF.6R bit socket driver is an essential professional-grade tool designed for tradespeople and mechanics who require a reliable, high-performance connection between power drills and driver bits. It excels at providing a secure grip, reducing the risk of bit drops during heavy-duty tasks; however, users should note that it is specifically engineered for 1/4 inch drive applications, making it unsuitable for larger shank requirements without adapters.

FAQs
Is the Facom EF.6R compatible with impact drivers?
While the build is high-quality, it is designed for standard drill drivers. Using it with high-torque impact drivers may lead to premature wear of the locking mechanism.
Does this driver work with all 1/4 inch bits?
It is compatible with all standard 1/4 inch hex bits that follow ISO 1173 specifications.
How long is the total length of the tool?
The tool has an overall length of 50 mm.
Does it have a magnetic feature?
The EF.6R relies on a mechanical locking plunger rather than a magnet for bit retention.
What is the weight of the driver?
The driver weighs 16 grams.
Troubleshooting
Bit is difficult to insert or release
Check the locking plunger for trapped debris or grit and clean with compressed air.
Bit wobbles during rotation
Ensure the driver is seated correctly in the power tool chuck and the chuck is fully tightened.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use the Facom EF.6R, insert the hex end into your drill chuck and tighten firmly. To attach a bit, press the bit into the socket until the locking plunger clicks, securing the shaft. To release, simply pull the bit with moderate force. Compatibility is universal for all 1/4 inch hex bits conforming to ISO 1173 standards. To maintain the tool, wipe the metallic surfaces with a light machine oil occasionally to prevent corrosion if used in damp environments. Ensure the locking plunger remains free of heavy debris or metal shavings to guarantee consistent release action.
