Apex 440-15IPX Torx Plus Bit IP15 1/4 Inch Drive

Product Description

The APEX 440-15IPX is a Torx Plus insert bit designed for use with 1/4 inch hex drive power tools and manual bit holders. It is sized to IP15 Torx Plus geometry, which provides a closer fit to the fastener recess than standard Torx, reducing cam-out under high torque. The overall length is 1 inch, making it a compact insert-style bit suited for tight-clearance applications. Constructed from steel, this bit is intended for assembly and service work where Torx Plus fasteners are specified. HVAC technicians, electricians, and general service technicians commonly encounter IP-series fasteners on equipment panels, motor housings, and control components.

This bit is used in applications where IP15 Torx Plus drive fasteners are present, including light commercial and residential equipment service, panel assembly, and precision fastening tasks. The 1/4 inch hex shank is the standard size compatible with most hand drivers, quick-change bit holders, and power screwdriver chucks used in trade service environments. Its insert-bit format allows it to be used in standard bit holders or extension bars.

Installation Notes

Insert bits should be seated fully and securely in the bit holder before applying torque. Verify the IP15 tip seats cleanly in the fastener recess before driving to avoid fastener damage. When servicing energized equipment, de-energize and lock out the system per applicable NFPA 70E or site safety procedures before using drive bits on electrical enclosures or components.
