Frequently Asked Questions
What is manganese phosphate coating?
Manganese phosphate is a conversion coating applied to the steel to give it corrosion resistance and a wear resistant surface. It is a standard finish on impact rated bits, and it helps the nutsetter hold up to the hammering of an impact driver.
What is a 5/16 nutsetter used for?
A 5/16 inch magnetic nutsetter drives hex head nuts and screws with a 5/16 inch hex head. It is a common size for roofing and cladding fasteners, and the magnetic tip holds the fastener on the bit for one handed starting.
Why choose the short 65mm length?
The 65mm length keeps the tool compact, which gives you more control and easier access in tight spaces. It also reduces wobble at speed, which matters when driving many fasteners in a row.
Will this bit survive impact driver use?
Yes. The Supabit range is built for the high torque output of an impact driver, with cold forged S2 tool steel at 58 to 62 HRC and a manganese phosphate coating. It is tested to exceed DIN standards by up to 330% torque.
Can I use it with a quick change adapter?
Yes. The 1/4 inch hex shank with the power groove fits quick change adapters and standard impact driver chucks, so you can swap between bits quickly on the job.
