Apex 440-10IPX 1/4 in Drive IP10 Torx Plus Insert Bit

Product Description

The APEX 440-10IPX is a 1/4 inch hex drive IP10 Torx Plus insert bit designed for use with standard 1/4 inch power tool and hand tool drives. Manufactured from steel, this bit measures 1 inch in overall length and is suited for fastening and removal applications where IP10 Torx Plus drive fasteners are specified. The Torx Plus profile provides a tighter fit to the fastener recess compared to standard Torx, reducing cam-out and extending bit life in repetitive production or service environments. Technicians working on HVAC equipment, electrical panels, and mechanical assemblies will encounter IP10 Torx Plus fasteners in OEM assemblies with increasing frequency.

This insert bit is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial service and assembly work wherever IP10 Torx Plus drive fasteners are encountered. It is sized for direct use in 1/4 inch hex bit holders, quick-change adapters, and compatible screwdriver handles. The compact 1 inch overall length suits inline and right-angle drive tools as well as manual bit holders. It is commonly used by HVAC service technicians, electricians, and general mechanical trades when servicing equipment with proprietary or security-style fasteners.
