FAQs

What type of screws is this screwdriver for?

This screwdriver is specifically designed for slotted (flat-head) screws with a tip size of 1.0 mm width and 5.5 mm head diameter.

What is the benefit of the hex shaft?

The hex shaft allows you to use a wrench or spanner on the screwdriver shaft for increased grip and leverage, enabling you to apply more torque when needed, especially on tight or stubborn screws.

How do I clean and maintain the screwdriver?

Wipe the screwdriver clean after use with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Store it in a dry place to prevent rust. Avoid using it for prying or as a chisel.

Can I use this screwdriver for Phillips head screws?

No, this screwdriver has a flat tip and is only compatible with slotted screws. Using it on Phillips head screws will not work and may damage both the screw and the screwdriver.

What is the overall length of the screwdriver?

The overall length of the Teng Tools Flat Screwdriver MD931N-TEN is 241 mm.

What is the blade length?

The blade length of this screwdriver is 125 mm.

Troubleshooting

Screwdriver slips out of screw head

Ensure the tip size (1.0 x 5.5 mm) matches the screw slot. Clean both the screw head and the screwdriver tip to remove any dirt or grease. Apply firm, consistent downward pressure and use the hex shaft with a wrench for increased torque if necessary.

Difficulty applying sufficient torque

Utilize the hex shaft by placing a suitable wrench or spanner around it. This allows for greater rotational force to be applied, ideal for stubborn screws.

Visible wear or damage on the tip

Cease use immediately to prevent further damage or stripping of screw heads. Inspect the tip for damage; if minor burrs are present, they might be carefully filed down. For significant damage, consider replacing the screwdriver.
