Apex 440-25IPX IP25 Torx Plus Bit 1/4 Inch Hex Drive

Product Description

The APEX 440-25IPX is an IP25 Torx Plus insert bit designed for use with 1/4 inch hex drive power tools and manual bit holders. Manufactured from steel, this bit delivers the precise internal fit required by Torx Plus fasteners, which use a more rounded lobe profile than standard Torx to reduce cam-out and improve torque transfer. At 1 inch overall length, it is sized as a standard insert bit for use in quick-change bit holders, magnetic extensions, and power screwdrivers. Technicians across HVAC, electrical, and general mechanical service rely on IP-profile bits when working on equipment and enclosures that use Torx Plus security fasteners.

This bit is suited for service work on panels, equipment housings, and assemblies that use IP25 Torx Plus drive fasteners. The 1/4 inch hex shank is the universal standard for insert bits, making the 440-25IPX compatible with the wide range of bit holders, nut drivers, and power tool chucks that accept 1/4 inch hex shanks. It is a practical single-unit addition to a service kit for technicians who encounter IP25 fasteners on the job.

Installation Notes

Insert bits should be seated fully into the bit holder or chuck before applying torque. Confirm the drive size matches the fastener recess before use — Torx Plus (IP) and standard Torx (T) profiles are not interchangeable. Power down or de-energize equipment before accessing fastened enclosures or panels. Follow applicable safety procedures for the equipment type being serviced.
