FAQs

Are these tools approved for live electrical work?

Yes, they are individually tested at 10,000V AC and approved for work up to 1,000V AC in accordance with IEC 60900.

What is the handle made of?

The patented SoftFinish handle is made from a specialized ergonomic material designed to reduce hand and muscle strain.

Can I use these for prying?

No. Prying can damage the insulated coating on the blade, which compromises the safety rating of the tool.

Which sizes are included in the 6-piece set?

The set includes four slotted sizes (3.0 x 100mm, 4.0 x 100mm, 5.5 x 125mm, 6.5 x 150mm) and two Phillips sizes (PH1 x 80mm, PH2 x 100mm).

How should I clean the handles?

Use a soft, dry cloth or a cloth lightly dampened with water to wipe away dust and debris. Avoid strong chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Insulation appears cracked or chipped

Immediately remove the tool from service; if the protective layer is compromised, it no longer meets 1,000V safety standards.

Screwdriver slips out of the screw head

Ensure you are using the correct tip size for the specific screw head; applying firm, consistent pressure helps maintain engagement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Individually tested for 1,000V AC safety
  • Ergonomic handle reduces user fatigue
  • High-grade chrome vanadium steel construction
  • Slim profile allows for access to deep-set screws
  • Meets rigorous international IEC 60900 standards

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy-duty mechanical prying
  • Insulation can be scratched if stored loosely with other metal tools
  • Limited to slotted and Phillips tips

Setup, Compatibility & Care

No specialized setup is required; these tools are ready for immediate use. To maintain the integrity of the 1,000V insulation:

  1. Always perform a visual inspection of the handle and blade insulation before every use.
  2. Do not use the screwdrivers as chisels, scrapers, or pry bars, as this can nick the insulation layer.
  3. Store in a dedicated tool roll or case to prevent metal-on-metal abrasion.
  4. Clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth; avoid harsh solvents that could degrade the handle grip or insulation material.
