Frequently asked questions about the Screwdrivers and nozzles category
What are Screwdrivers and nozzles and what are they used for?
Screwdrivers and nozzles are hand tools and interchangeable bits for fastening and impact driver work. The category includes flat, PH, PZ, TORX bits and magnetic holders in lengths from 25 to 150 mm, suitable for furniture assembly, repairs and general installation tasks.
What bit types are available in the category (PH, PZ, TORX etc.)?
The range includes Phillips (PH), Pozidriv (PZ), TORX, flat/slotted bits and bit holders. Bits come in standard 25–50 mm lengths and extended 110–150 mm sizes for hard-to-reach areas.
How to choose bit length: 25 mm, 50 mm, 110–150 mm?
Choose 25–50 mm for standard screws and general hand or power-driver use. 110–150 mm is for deep-set screws, profiles and hard-to-reach spots, typically used with extension or magnetic bit holders.
What is a magnetic bit holder and when do you need it?
A magnetic bit holder is an adapter with a magnet that secures the bit and holds the screw in place. It’s useful for furniture assembly, fastening small fixings and working in confined or hard-to-reach areas.
Are Makita kit bits suitable for impact drivers?
There are Makita Impact/XGT kits and impact-rated bits in the range. For impact drivers choose items labelled ‘Impact’ or marked as impact-resistant (löögikindel) in the product description.
What does ‘impact-resistant’/löögikindel mean for bits?
‘Löögikindel’ or impact-resistant means the bit is made from special steel and heat-treated for use with impact tools. These bits withstand repeated impacts and are less likely to break when used with impact drivers and hammer drills.
Should I buy sets or individual bits?
For varied work, sets (10–99 pcs) are convenient as they include PH, PZ, TORX and magnetic holders. Buy single bits if you only need a specific size or want to replace a worn bit—sets like Makita or Specialist+ give broader options.
What holders and adapters are available (angle, flexible, extended)?
There are angle adapters (nurktrelli adapter), flexible holders (painduv otsikuhoidja 240 mm) and extended magnetic holders from 60 to 240 mm. They enable work at angles, in deep recesses and narrow profiles.
Which bit kits appear among top products (Makita, Specialist+, Bosch)?
Top products include Makita kits (10–99 pcs and 31 pcs), Specialist+ PH/PZ/TX bit packs and Bosch impact-rated TORX bits. Descriptions list pack sizes (2–10 pcs) and larger kits that include a magnetic holder.
How to check bits compatibility with holders by shank (1/4" etc.)?
Most bits in the range use a standard 1/4" hex shank compatible with common holders and extensions. Product descriptions state the shank type—look for 1/4" compatibility for angle and flexible adapters.
