Product Information

Full details

This Rolson Slot Screwdriver (6mm x 200mm) is designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts needing a reliable tool for slotted screw applications. Its key benefit is the combination of durability and precision for efficient task completion. A potential consideration is its specific slot size, meaning it may not be suitable for all screw types. Key features include a magnetic tip for secure screw handling, a rubber grip for comfort, and a satin finish shaft for corrosion resistance.

FAQs

What is the main advantage of the magnetic tip?

The magnetic tip helps to hold screws securely, preventing them from falling and making it easier to start screws, especially in awkward positions or when working one-handed.

Is this screwdriver suitable for Phillips head screws?

No, this is a slot screwdriver designed specifically for screws with a single slot on the head. It is not compatible with Phillips or other screw head types.

How do I clean the screwdriver?

Wipe the shaft and tip with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish or grip.

What does 'satin finish shaft' mean for durability?

A satin finish provides a smooth surface that is more resistant to wear and corrosion compared to unfinished or polished metal, contributing to the tool's longevity.

Can I use this screwdriver in very tight spaces?

The 200mm shaft length offers good reach, but it might be too long for extremely confined areas. For such situations, a screwdriver with a shorter shaft would be more appropriate.

How should I store this screwdriver?

Store it in a clean, dry place, like a toolbox or drawer, to protect it from moisture and prevent damage to the tip and finish.

What material is the grip made of?

The grip is made of rubber, designed for comfort and to provide a secure hold during use.

Troubleshooting

Screwdriver tip does not engage screw slot.

Ensure you are using the correct screwdriver size for the screw. Verify the screw is a slot-head type and that the 6mm tip aligns properly with the slot.

Screw slips off the magnetic tip.

Clean the magnetic tip to remove any debris. Ensure the screw head itself is clean and magnetic. For non-magnetic screws, the magnetic tip may offer limited assistance.

Reduced grip comfort or slipping in hand.

Ensure the rubber grip is clean and free from grease or oil. If the grip is damaged, consider replacing the screwdriver.

Shaft shows signs of rust.

Wipe the shaft immediately with a dry cloth. If rust is present, use a mild metal polish and then ensure the shaft is thoroughly dried and stored in a dry place.
