FAQs
What material are these screwdriver bits made from?
The bits are made from durable S2 steel, known for its hardness and resistance to wear.
How long are the screwdriver bits?
Each bit in the set is 100mm (approximately 4 inches) long.
What is the advantage of a magnetic tip?
The magnetic tip helps to hold screws securely, making it easier to start screws, especially in awkward positions, and reducing the risk of dropping them.
What sizes of slotted screws can these bits handle?
The set includes bits ranging in size from 1.6mm to 6mm, covering a common range of slotted screw head dimensions.
Can these bits be used with any drill?
Yes, they are designed to fit standard 1/4-inch hex drive chucks found on most common power drills and screwdriver handles.
Are these bits suitable for Phillips head screws?
No, these are specifically slotted screwdriver bits and are not designed for Phillips head screws.
How should I clean and store the bits?
Wipe them clean with a dry cloth after use and store them in a dry environment to prevent rust and maintain their magnetic properties.
Troubleshooting
Bit slips out of the screw head.
Ensure you are using the correct bit size for the screw. Verify the screw head is not damaged. Apply firm, steady pressure directly behind the bit.
Bit does not hold screws magnetically.
Clean the magnetic tip of any debris. The screw head may be too large or small for optimal magnetic grip. Ensure the screw is made of a ferromagnetic material.
Bit feels loose in the screwdriver handle/drill chuck.
Ensure the bit is fully inserted into the hex drive. If using a drill, tighten the chuck securely around the bit shank.
Visible wear or damage on the bit tip.
Discontinue use to prevent further damage to the bit or the screw. Replace the bit if significant wear compromises its function.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Simply insert the desired bit into a compatible screwdriver handle or drill chuck. Ensure the bit is securely seated before applying force.
Compatibility: These bits are designed for use with standard 1/4-inch hex drive tool holders found on most manual screwdrivers and power drills. Verify your tool's compatibility before use.
Care: To maintain performance, clean the bits after each use with a dry cloth to remove debris. Store them in a dry place to prevent rust. Avoid exposing them to corrosive materials. Periodically check the magnetic tip for any accumulated metal filings and clean as needed.
