Product Description

The APEX 440-27IPX is a 1/4 inch hex drive IP27 Torx Plus insert bit designed for use with standard 1/4 inch bit holders, power screwdrivers, and hand drivers. Built from steel, it delivers reliable torque transfer on IP27 Torx Plus fasteners commonly found in industrial assemblies, electronics, and equipment maintenance. The overall length is 1 inch, making it a compact insert-style bit suited for close-quarters work. This bit is a standard-inventory item for maintenance technicians, electricians, and mechanical assemblers who regularly encounter Torx Plus drive fasteners on the job.

The 440-27IPX is used in applications where IP27 Torx Plus fasteners appear, including commercial equipment panels, electrical enclosures, and mechanical assemblies. The insert bit format is compatible with standard 1/4 inch hex quick-change bit holders and magnetic bit adapters, making it practical for use with both hand tools and powered drivers. It is suited for light industrial, commercial service, and trade environments where Torx Plus drive sizes are specified by the equipment manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Insert the bit fully into a 1/4 inch hex bit holder or magnetic adapter before applying torque. Verify the IP27 Torx Plus profile matches the fastener head before driving to avoid fastener damage. Inspect the bit tip for wear or rounding before use, as a worn tip can strip Torx Plus fasteners. No special codes or permits are required for hand tool use, but follow the equipment manufacturer's torque specifications when servicing regulated assemblies.
