Product Information

Full details

This Wiha Softfinish electric slimFix slotted screwdriver is designed for electricians and professionals working with live electrical components up to 1,000V AC. Its key benefit is enhanced safety through VDE testing and insulated blades, combined with ergonomic comfort via the SoftFinish handle. A potential caveat for some users might be the specific slot size (3.5mm width, 0.6mm thickness), requiring users to ensure it matches their screw requirements. The screwdriver features a high-quality chrome vanadium steel blade, insulation molded directly onto the blade, and a patented ergonomic handle designed for reduced hand and muscle strain.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum voltage this screwdriver is safe to use on?

This screwdriver is individually tested at 10,000V AC and approved for safe use on live electrical circuits up to 1,000V AC.

What type of screws is this screwdriver designed for?

It is specifically designed for slot head screws with a blade width of 3.5mm and a thickness of 0.6mm.

How does the 'slimFix' feature benefit me?

The slimFix blades are up to 33% slimmer, allowing for better access in tight or confined electrical spaces where standard blades may not fit.

Is the handle comfortable for long work sessions?

Yes, the patented SoftFinish® handle is ergonomically designed to be kind to hands and muscles, reducing fatigue during extended use. It is recommended by doctors and therapists for its ergonomic benefits.

What does VDE tested mean?

VDE testing signifies that the tool has been rigorously tested by the VDE Institute according to international safety standards (IEC 60900) for tools used in electrical applications, ensuring its insulating properties and safety for use up to 1,000V AC.

Can I use this screwdriver for general-purpose tasks, not just electrical?

While durable, its primary design and safety features are for electrical work up to 1,000V AC. For non-electrical tasks, ensure the screw type matches and be mindful of the insulated handle, which may offer less grip than a standard screwdriver handle in some non-electrical applications.

How do I maintain the screwdriver for optimal performance?

Keep the blade clean and dry. Regularly inspect the insulation and blade tip for any damage. Store in a dry place to prevent corrosion.

Troubleshooting

Screwdriver feels loose in the handle.

Inspect the blade-handle connection. If the issue persists and the tool is VDE rated, discontinue use and consider replacement as the integrity may be compromised.

Blade tip appears damaged or worn.

Do not use the screwdriver. Check if it falls under warranty for replacement, or source a replacement tool with the correct specifications.

Difficulty engaging with a screw head.

Verify the screw head is a slotted type and matches the 3.5mm blade width and 0.6mm thickness. The screw slot may be damaged or non-standard.
