Product Information
Full details
The Facom ATM.M2 is a high-performance 245mm bit-holding screwdriver engineered for professional mechanics and tradespeople who require precision, reliability, and ease of use during repetitive fastening tasks. Its core benefit is the combination of an ergonomic bi-material grip and a powerful internal magnet, which securely holds bits in place even in awkward angles. The primary caveat is that, as a dedicated bit holder, it does not include an integrated set of bits, requiring users to have their own standard screwdriver bit collection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The ATM.M2 is compatible with standard hex-shank screwdriver bits. To set up, simply push your chosen bit into the holder until the internal magnet engages and locks it into position.
For maintenance, keep the tool free of metal shavings, as these can accumulate on the magnet and interfere with bit seating. Periodically wipe the shaft with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using the handle as a prying tool or hammer, as this may compromise the ergonomic grip and the structural integrity of the bit-holding assembly.
