Hex drivers for cordless screwdriver
 

What are they called. Saw a set of 4 at shop. Eds near 20 quid.

Are these available generally ie not just rc tool specific.

What they called

My hands arent great and now Im messing about more actually changing diff oils etc it would help a huge about. Would still run them hom by hand. But be great to speed things up

i also Believe MIP do a set

try the Schumacher RC website or LMR :)

Arrow Max do a 4pce set too.

Hi,

You are looking for a bit with a 1/4" hex that fits into the power screwdriver.

As stated lots of companies supply / make them.

EDS / Arrowmax / Huddy / Associated / MIP. etc.

The MIP ones are very good quality.

Can you just stick the tip only stuff into a cordless driver or does it have to be a specific thing

Cordless driver, as in a cordless drill would rip any plastics apart. the specific ones people use like hitachi have a much softer clutch to allow you to put screws back in without cross threading.

I use one of these: -

Because it's a bit crap it hasn't got much torque it doesn't (read can't) wreck the threads in stuff but it still lasts ages on a charge.

So what bits do you use with it?

£3.99 bargain here

That has no clutch. its pointless without one.

Buy right, buy once.

Is this the kind of tip you have to buy that fits in a power tool hence the name?

Paul just got one of these what settings do you use on it e.g clutch settings etc

Buy from my sponser Answer rc as they do hex drivers designed for normal screw drivers so should fit into a cordless driver. Ive got a set and are really good.

Hi, Apologies I missed the earlier post. Belatedly, I got round the bits issue by using a 5mm Nut driver and plugging the fastrax multi driver heads in them. I already had these in the garage so it didn't cost anything...

I have one of the IXO drivers, only about 30 quid and pretty useful.

Also only use it as a runner, finish off by hand (just the last couple of turns)
The tips i have are normal workshop ones. Wera i think.

I have a ryobi driver and use arrowmax drivers. All works well and clutch is fine

+1 for the ryobi and arrowmax tips.

The clutch on the ryobi goes nice and low for plastic parts.

Is it best to have the clutch on the lowest setting then?

I'd say so - you can always increase if you need, but if you start too high then you strip the thread

It's far too easy to trip threads out with drill power so i only use it when dismantling stuff or if I'm feeling really lazy
