JIS B4633 1/4" Hex Screw Driver Bits | Made in Japan (+1 +2 +3 X 75mm - 6 Pcs)

Product Information

Also known as an ECX or Combination Tip drive. A combined slotted and Robertson drive screw found in electrical power equipment and distribution equipment. The design allows for higher torque application with reduced camming, slipping out and damaging the fastener. [63] The ECX drive is not compatible with older combination Phillips and slotted head screws. [64] Although Milwaukee Electric Tool holds the trade name ECX, their marketing materials do not tell what type of screw head ECX is designed to fit. [50] Clutch [ edit ] JIS : JIS Ph1, JIS Ph2, JIS Ph3 ; Phillips : Ph0, Ph1, Ph2 (x2), Ph3 ; Plat : 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 mm ; PzDrive : Pz1 (x2), Pz2 (x3), Pz3 (x2) ; Hexagonal : 2, 2,5, 3, 4, 5, 6 mm ; Étoile* : T10, T15, T20, T25, T30, T40. A correctly sized JIS driver will engage at full depth into a Phillips or Pozidriv head screw slightly loosely, but without damage. JIS heads are often identified by a single dot or an "X" to one side of the cross slot. [30]

Now I’ll list the most widely used types, first the obsolete, then the current standard ones, sorted chronologically, so it can be understood more easily. The reason these companies have changed to DIN 5260/ISO 8764-1 is because the new standard is designed to work in both Phillips and JIS screws. For the most part that is true, it does work on both screw types, but like anything meant to work with multiple things, the middle ground means compromise. The JIS standard screwdriver will always outperform a DIN/ISO screw driver in the worst of conditions on a JIS screw, and the same is true in reverse. A Phillips screw head is slightly different from a PoziDriv; [10] see §Pozidriv section below for details. In Yugoslavia, in elementary school, we had classes where we were taught how to build, and repair stuff (including the basics of wood, and metal working). Called “The basics of technical education”. For those who like JIS bits (like me), there's a very nice ratcheting handle and full set of cross point tips. The tipsDue to the difficulty of turning these fasteners without specialized (and uncommon) five-point wrenches such as hydrant wrenches, they are commonly used for tamper resistance by public utilities on water meter covers, natural gas valves, electrical cabinets, and fire hydrants. The Sealey 4pc JIS Screwdriver Set are suitable for Japanese Industrial Standard Screws commonly found on Japanese manufactured cars and motorcycles. Using the correct JIS screwdrives will help prevent damage to JIS fixings that using other screwdrivers can cause. Made using high quality Chrome Vanadium steel, the screwdrivers feature magnetised tips and soft grip handles. Torx Paralobe is a further improvement over Torx Plus, [48] claiming 50% increased drive system torque over Torx and 20% over Torx Plus. A thumbscrew is a type of screw drive with either a tall head and ridged or knurled sides, or a key-like flat-sided vertical head. They are intended to be tightened and loosened by hand, and are usually not found in structural applications. They are sometimes also cut for Phillips head or slotted screwdrivers, as well as having the knurling for finger grip. ASME Standard 18.6.8 covers dimensions for Type A (shoulder under the head), regular and heavy, along with Type B (without shoulder), regular and heavy. They can be found on many computer cases, and in other locations where easy access without tools is desired.

Even though the JIS and Phillips looks extremely similar, they are two different designs and the drivers are not meant to be interchangeable. Using one in the other will lead to frustration and a rounded out screws. Now it is defined only by (DIN) ISO 8764-1 PH (standard designated in 2004) and (DIN) ISO 8764-2 PH.
