The B2C 78mm Magnetic Bit Holder is an essential accessory for professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts who frequently work in confined spaces where standard bit holders are too bulky. Its primary benefit is a high-strength magnetic connection paired with a slim 9.2mm profile, allowing for precision fastening in tight corners or narrow channels. However, users should note that the ultra-slim design is optimized for standard 1/4 inch hexagonal bits and may not accommodate specialized locking-groove bits that require a deep sleeve engagement.

Yes, it is designed to fit the standard 1/4 inch hex chucks found on most cordless drills and impact drivers.
While it can be used with impact drivers, it is designed primarily for light-to-medium duty fastening rather than high-torque automotive tasks.
The high-strength magnet is designed for standard fasteners, but keep in mind that the holding power is best suited for screws typically used in cabinetry or home repair.
The holder is 78mm in total length.
No, this is exclusively for 1/4 inch hexagonal bits and will not fit SDS shank systems.
Ensure the bit is a standard 1/4 inch hex shank and check that the quick-change collar is fully seated in the locked position.
Clean debris from the collar mechanism using compressed air and apply a tiny drop of lubricant if necessary.
Verify that the bit is straight and fully inserted into the magnetic base; if it persists, check the drill chuck for run-out.
To use the B2C Magnetic Bit Holder, simply insert the shank of the tool into your drill or impact driver's chuck until it clicks into place. Pull back the quick-change collar to insert or release your 1/4 inch bits.
Compatibility: This unit is compatible with any standard 1/4 inch hexagonal drive system. It is not designed for bits with non-standard shank geometries.
Care: To maintain the efficacy of the magnet, keep the tip clean of metal shavings and dust. Do not use excessive force to clear the quick-change collar; if it becomes stuck, use a light machine oil to lubricate the internal spring mechanism. Store in a dry environment to prevent corrosion.
