Product Description

The APEX 324-00X is a slotted power screwdriver bit designed for use in power screwdrivers, electric drills, and impact-rated hand tools. It features a 1/4-inch hex drive shank for quick-change compatibility with standard bit holders and chucks. The bit measures 4 inches overall length, with a blade width of 0.134 inches and a blade thickness of 0.026 inches, sized for Screw Size 2F-3R slotted fasteners. At 0.022 pounds, it is a lightweight single-piece accessory suited to production assembly, maintenance, and field service work.

This bit is appropriate for residential and commercial maintenance applications where slotted fasteners are encountered, including HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, plumbing access covers, and general mechanical assemblies.

Installation Notes

Seat the hex shank fully into the bit holder or chuck before driving fasteners to prevent cam-out or shank damage. Ensure the bit tip is properly seated in the fastener slot before applying torque. Power down any equipment being serviced before driving or removing fasteners on live assemblies. Inspect the bit tip for wear or rounding and replace if the blade no longer seats cleanly in the fastener head.
