This Wera 3840/1 TS Hex Bit is designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts who frequently work with hexagon socket screws, offering enhanced durability and reduced screw head damage. Its key benefit lies in the Hex-Plus profile and torsion design, which significantly prolongs the life of both the bit and the screw. A potential consideration is that it's specialized for hexagon socket screws and requires a compatible holder.

The Hex-Plus profile features a greater contact surface in the head of the screw, which reduces the 'notching effect' and minimizes damage to the screw head compared to conventional bits.
The Torsion zone is designed to absorb torque peaks. This protects the bit from premature wear and extends its overall service life, especially when subjected to high or sudden forces.
Yes, as long as your power drill or impact driver has a standard 1/4" hex chuck or holder that conforms to DIN ISO 1173-D 6.3.
The bit itself is made of stainless steel. Using it with stainless steel screws prevents 'extraneous rust,' which is rust transferred from a carbon steel tool to a stainless steel fastener, maintaining the aesthetic and integrity of the workpiece.
This specific model, the 3840/1 TS Hex Bit, is 5mm. It is designed for 5mm hexagon socket screws.
It differs through its Hex-Plus profile for better grip and reduced wear, and its Torsion zone for shock absorption, both contributing to a longer lifespan and less damage to screws compared to standard bits.
The length of this Wera 3840/1 TS Hex Bit is 25mm.
Ensure the Hex-Plus profile is fully seated in the screw head. Verify you are using the correct bit size for the screw. Check for excessive wear on the screw head.
Ensure the bit is used within its intended torque limits. If using with a power tool, utilize a clutch setting to avoid over-torquing. Check for any obstructions causing excessive friction.
Ensure the bit and screw are both made of stainless steel. Avoid using the bit with standard steel screws or storing it alongside carbon steel tools. Clean and dry the bit thoroughly after each use.
Setup: Simply insert the 1/4" hexagon shank of the Wera 3840/1 TS Hex Bit into a compatible 1/4" hex driver or power tool holder that adheres to DIN ISO 1173-D 6.3 standards. Ensure the bit is fully seated in the holder for secure operation.
Compatibility: This bit is designed for use with hexagon socket screws (Allen screws). It is compatible with standard 1/4" hex drive tools and chucks. For optimal results and to prevent extraneous rust, use this bit with stainless steel screws and tools.
Care: After use, clean the bit with a dry cloth to remove any debris. Store in a clean, dry environment. For prolonged use with stainless steel, avoid contact with carbon steel tools to prevent rust transfer.
