Screwdrivers & Riveters
Definitely one of the most popular hand tools used by any tradesperson is a screwdriver. It doesn’t matter if you are installing a fastener during manufacture or maintaining and repairing equipment with screws already present, it is highly likely you will need a screwdriver to complete the task. There are many handle styles, shank lengths and tips to be found on a hand screwdriver depending on the type of screw they are to be used on and where the screw is located. The handle material and shape can dramatically affect how the screwdriver performs in terms of grip, torque and comfort.
Well designed screwdrivers give the user enough grip to prevent slipping when turning the screw, this can be provided by rubber inserts, textured surfaces and the shape of the handle itself. An important part of handle design is comfort under repetitive action; in use, a screwdriver can be turned many times and has direct contact with the operator, too much grip and the handle sticks in the palm causing blisters and hard skin, not enough grip and the screw may not be able to be turned as inadequate torque is applied, therefore a screwdriver with good ergonomic design is essential for professionals who use these tools on a daily basis.
Stubby screwdrivers have a shortened ‘stubby’ handle which just fits in the palm with a very short blade, designed for reaching into tight spaces. Flexible shaft screwdrivers are able to reach fasteners that may not be in line with the handle, they are ideal for working inside engine compartments and on screws which are inserted parallel to a surface preventing the driver tip being inserted.
Combination screwdrivers are very versatile as they allow a complete range of different drive types to be used with one handle, kits often include; Pozidrive, Philips, slotted and Torx drives enabling almost any regular fastener to be worked on. Combination screwdriver sets save space in tool bags and because only the tip will need replacing they can be very economical, it is common for a ratchet handle to be the central component for a replaceable tip screwdriver set allowing for very fast screw installation and removal. VDE screwdrivers have specially insulated handles and blades preventing electric shock if used on live circuits. Torque setting screwdrivers are becoming very popular as they prevent overtightening on sensitive materials making installation faster and more accurate.
