FAQs

What types of screws does this set work with?

This set is specifically designed for U-type (also known as snake eye or 2-hole), and spanner-type security fixings. It is not suitable for standard household screws like Phillips or flathead.

What are the sizes included in the set?

The set includes four sizes: U4, U6, U8, and U10. Each screwdriver has a blade length of 100mm.

Are these screwdrivers magnetic?

Yes, all screwdrivers in this set feature magnetic tips, which help to hold screws securely and prevent them from falling.

What material are the screwdrivers made of?

They are manufactured from durable chrome vanadium steel, known for its strength and resistance to corrosion.

How long are the screwdrivers?

Each screwdriver has a blade length of 100mm, with a total overall length of approximately 207mm.

Can I use these for everyday screws?

No, these are specialized security screwdrivers. They are designed for specific tamper-resistant screw types and will not work on standard screws.

How should I store these screwdrivers?

Each screwdriver has a hanging hole in the handle, making them easy to store on a tool board or peg rack for convenient access and organization.

Troubleshooting

Screwdriver not engaging the screw properly

Ensure you have selected the correct size (U4, U6, U8, U10) and type (U-type, snake eye, or spanner) of security screw. Verify the screw head is clean and free from debris that might be obstructing the driver tip.

Screw head is damaged or stripped

If the screw head is already damaged, try applying firm, steady pressure while turning. For severely stripped screws, you may need specialized screw extraction tools. This set is designed for undamaged fixings.

Screwdriver tip feels loose in the handle

Check that the handle is not cracked. These are typically permanently affixed handles. If the tip itself seems damaged or worn, inspect for signs of excessive wear that might affect grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Specifically designed for common security screw types.
  • Durable chrome vanadium construction for longevity.
  • Magnetic tips enhance usability and prevent dropped screws.
  • Comfortable grip reduces user fatigue.
  • Includes a practical range of four essential sizes.

Cons

  • Limited to the four included sizes; may not cover all security screw variations.
  • Blade length is fixed at 100mm, potentially too long for very confined spaces.
  • Not designed for standard screw types.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a hand tool set and requires no electronic setup. Simply select the appropriate screwdriver from the set for the specific security screw you need to engage.

Compatibility: The set is designed for U-type (2-hole), snake eye, and spanner-type security fixings. It is not compatible with standard slotted, Phillips, or Torx screws. Always visually confirm the screw head type before selecting a driver.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Laser Security Screwdriver Set:

  1. Cleaning: After each use, wipe the screwdrivers clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dirt and grease.
  2. Storage: Store the set in a dry environment. Utilize the hanging holes for organized storage on a tool board to prevent loss and keep them readily accessible.
  3. Inspection: Periodically inspect the tips for any signs of damage or wear. If a tip becomes deformed, it may not engage properly with the screw and should be replaced.
