FAQs
What type of screws is this screwdriver for?
This screwdriver is specifically designed for flat-head (slotted) screws with a slot width of approximately 6mm.
How does the magnetic tip help?
The magnetic tip helps to hold the screw onto the screwdriver blade, making it easier to insert screws, especially in tight spaces, and reduces the chance of dropping them.
What material is the blade made of?
The blade is manufactured from durable chrome vanadium steel with a satin finish.
Is this screwdriver suitable for high-torque applications?
While durable, its ergonomic handle is designed more for control and comfort. For extremely high-torque applications, a screwdriver with a larger, potentially non-cushioned handle might offer more leverage.
Can I use this for Phillips head screws?
No, this is a flat-head (slotted) screwdriver and is not designed for Phillips or any other type of screw head.
How should I clean and maintain the screwdriver?
Wipe the blade and handle clean with a dry cloth after use. Store in a dry environment to prevent rust and maintain the blade's integrity.
Troubleshooting
Screwdriver slips on screw head
Ensure the screwdriver tip is fully seated in the screw slot and apply firm, consistent pressure. Check that the screw head slot is not stripped or damaged.
Magnetic tip is weak
Clean the magnetic tip with a dry cloth. Ensure it hasn't been exposed to strong magnetic fields that could demagnetize it. While not user-repairable, a weak magnet typically indicates the tool has reached the end of its magnetic lifespan.
Handle feels uncomfortable
Experiment with grip placement, utilizing the pressure thumb point for added control. Ensure you are using the correct size screwdriver for the screw to avoid cam-out.

Care:
