Product Information

Full details

The Makita E-07048 is a 28-piece screwdriver bit set designed for DIY enthusiasts and professionals needing a versatile collection of bits for common fastening tasks. Its key benefit is the organized, transparent case providing quick access and visibility to a range of Phillips, Pozidriv, Torx, Hex, and Slotted bits, along with magnetic holders and nut setters. A potential caveat is that the 25mm bits might be too short for deep screw applications.

FAQs

What types of screws can I use this set with?

This set includes bits for Phillips (PH), Pozidriv (PZ), Torx (T), Hex (HEX), and Slotted (SL) screws, covering a wide range of common types.

Are the bits suitable for impact drivers?

Yes, the bits in this set are designed to be compatible with standard power tools, including impact drivers, provided they use a 1/4 inch hex shank.

How long are the different bits?

The set includes 16 bits that are 25mm long and 8 bits that are 50mm long.

What is the purpose of the magnetic bit holder?

The 60mm magnetic bit holder helps to securely hold the bit in place and, more importantly, attracts the screw, preventing it from falling during application, especially in awkward positions.

What are the nut setters for?

The set includes three magnetic nut setters (8mm, 10mm, and 12mm) which function like sockets, allowing you to drive nuts and bolts with your power drill.

How do I clean the bit set?

Wipe the bits with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Ensure they are completely dry before returning them to the case. Clean the case with a damp cloth as needed.

What is the weight of the entire set?

The entire set, including the case and all bits, weighs approximately 460 grams.

Troubleshooting

Bit slips out of the chuck

Ensure the bit is fully inserted into the chuck and the chuck's locking mechanism is engaged properly. For magnetic holders, check that the bit is seated securely.

Screw head is damaged by the bit

Verify you are using the correct bit size and type for the screw. Ensure the bit is fully seated in the screw head before applying torque. Use appropriate speed and torque settings on your power tool.

Bit does not engage magnetically

Clean the end of the bit and the screw head. Check the magnetic bit holder for any debris or damage that might be affecting its magnetic strength.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility:

This bit set features standard 1/4 inch hex shank bits, making them compatible with most standard cordless drills, impact drivers, and manual screwdrivers equipped with a 1/4 inch hex chuck or bit holder.

Setup:

  1. Select the appropriate bit from the organized case based on the screw head type and size.
  2. Insert the bit firmly into the chuck of your power tool or the magnetic bit holder.
  3. If using the magnetic bit holder, ensure it is securely attached to your tool's chuck.

Care:

  • After use, clean any debris from the bits and the holder.
  • Store the bits back in their designated slots within the transparent case to maintain organization and prevent loss.
  • Avoid exposing the bits or the case to excessive moisture to prevent rust and maintain material integrity.
  • Periodically check the magnetic holder for any damage or loss of magnetism.
