Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between this and the 150mm bit?

The main difference is length. This 50mm bit is compact and easy to control in a drill or driver, while the 150mm bit reaches recessed and deep set screws. For everyday screw driving where reach is not an issue, the shorter bit gives a more direct feel. Keep both for different jobs.

Can I use this in an impact driver?

The bit has a 1/4 inch hex shank, so it fits impact drivers and quick change chucks. The listing rates this standard series bit as not impact rated, so it is not specifically built for high torque impact use. For heavy impact driving, choose a bit marked impact rated.

What does the name say about impact use?

The product name includes the word impact, but the listing spec table states impact rated as no. The name and the spec do not fully agree, and this is flagged for supplier confirmation. The safe reading is to treat it as a standard series bit and use an impact rated bit for high torque impact work.

How do I know when to replace the bit?

Replace the bit when the tip starts slipping out of the screw head or when the corners look worn. A worn Phillips tip will round off screw heads and slow the job down. Keep a spare pack in the kit so a worn bit does not stop the work.
