Product Information

Full details

The Facom AR.2X40 Isoryl Slotted Screwdriver is an essential precision tool for professional technicians and hobbyists working with delicate electronics or small-scale machinery. It provides superior access to tight recesses thanks to its 2mm tip and short 40mm shank, though its specialized size is limited to small-fastener applications rather than heavy-duty mechanical work.

FAQs

Can I use this screwdriver for automotive repairs?

This tool is intended for precision tasks and is generally too small for automotive assembly work, though it may be useful for specific electronic dashboard components.

What does the 'Isoryl' designation mean?

Isoryl refers to the specific high-durability material used in the handle construction, chosen for its impact resistance and grip.

Is the tip magnetic?

The standard AR.2X40 model does not feature a magnetic tip; it relies on mechanical fit to hold fasteners.

How do I ensure the tip doesn't wear down?

Avoid over-tightening and ensure the tool is used only on the correct screw head size to prevent premature tip deformation.

Is this tool ESD safe?

The AR.2X40 is a standard metal-shanked tool and is not rated for ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) safety.

Troubleshooting

Screwdriver slips out of the screw head (cam-out)

Ensure the tip is fully seated in the slot and verify that the screw head width matches the 2mm blade size.

Surface rust appearing on the blade

Use a light abrasive pad or metal cleaner to remove surface oxidation and keep the blade lightly oiled during long-term storage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent precision for delicate tasks
  • Highly durable corrosion-resistant chrome finish
  • Ergonomic handle improves control
  • Machined tip minimizes fastener damage

Cons

  • Not suitable for large or high-torque fasteners
  • Limited reach due to short shank length
  • Dedicated size restricts multi-purpose utility

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This tool is ready for use immediately upon unboxing. It is compatible with all standard slotted screws requiring a 2mm width driver head. To maintain the tool's performance, wipe the shank with a clean, dry cloth after exposure to oils or solvents. Store in a dry environment to ensure the chrome finish remains pristine. Avoid using this screwdriver as a lever or pry bar, as the precision-machined tip is not designed to withstand side-loading pressure.
