Apex 170-1/4B Torq-set Power Screwdriver Bit 1/4 Hex

Product Description

The APEX 170-1/4B is a Torq-Set power screwdriver bit designed for use with 1/4 inch hex drive power tools and hand drivers. It features a 1/4 Torq-Set specialty point and measures 1.25 inches in overall length. Torq-Set bits are engineered for precision fastening applications where a standard Phillips bit will not engage the fastener correctly. Licensed HVAC technicians, electricians, and assembly professionals working on equipment with Torq-Set fasteners rely on this bit for accurate, cam-out-resistant drive action. The compact 1.25 inch OAL suits both inline and right-angle power drivers.

This bit is suited for service and assembly tasks involving Torq-Set fasteners in light manufacturing, HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, and similar trade applications. The 1/4 inch hex shank provides fast, tool-free bit changes on standard power screwdrivers and impact drivers fitted with a 1/4 inch hex chuck. Single-piece packaging makes it easy to stock as a replacement or add to a service kit.

Installation Notes

Installation and fastener removal with Torq-Set bits should be performed by qualified technicians familiar with the fastener type. Confirm the bit point matches the fastener recess size before applying torque to avoid fastener damage. Disconnect power or de-energize any equipment before removing or installing fasteners on electrical or HVAC panels. Do not use this bit with fasteners that require a different drive style, as improper engagement can strip the recess.
