The Wera 3160 i VDE Slotted Screwdriver (05022730001) is a precision-engineered tool designed for electrical professionals and DIYers who require maximum safety and comfort during installation or maintenance tasks. Featuring a 100mm LaserTip blade, it provides excellent grip and reduces cam-out, though its specialized insulated design is strictly optimized for slotted screw applications, limiting its versatility for other fastener types.

Yes, it is individually tested to IEC 60900 standards for work on live systems up to 1,000 volts.
LaserTip uses a microscopic laser-roughened surface on the tip to bite into the screw head, providing a much higher grip than standard smooth tips.
While it functions as a regular screwdriver, it is optimized for electrical safety and may be overkill for general household tasks.
No, the Kraftform handle includes a specific 'anti-roll' feature that keeps it stationary.
The total length of this model is 181mm.
Ensure the screw head is not stripped and that you are using the correct 3.5mm size. Press firmly to engage the LaserTip teeth.
Immediately stop using the tool for electrical work to prevent shock hazards and replace it with a new unit.
This tool requires no formal setup; simply choose the correct slot width (3.5mm) for your application. Because the shaft is insulated, it is compatible with most standard DIN-compliant electrical equipment. To maintain the integrity of the VDE rating, inspect the insulation periodically for nicks or cracks. Keep the blade clean of debris and store the tool in a dry, temperate environment. Do not use the screwdriver as a lever or hammer, as this can compromise the insulating properties and the tip geometry.
