Apex 440-TX-40X T40 Torx Bit 1/4 Inch Drive

Product Description

The APEX 440-TX-40X is a T40 Torx screwdriver bit designed for 1/4 inch hex drive tools. Built from steel, this bit seats securely in standard 1/4 inch quick-change and keyed bit holders used in power screwdrivers, impact drivers, and manual bit holders. The T40 Torx profile resists cam-out under torque load, making it a reliable choice for repetitive fastening tasks in equipment assembly, HVAC cabinet work, appliance service, and general mechanical maintenance. Overall length is 1 inch, keeping the profile compact for use in confined spaces.

This bit is suited for technicians and mechanics who regularly encounter T40 Torx fasteners on equipment panels, motor housings, control box covers, and similar assemblies. It fits any 1/4 inch hex drive bit holder, including those integrated into cordless drills, electric screwdrivers, and manual handle sets. Packaged as a single bit, it works as a targeted replacement or supplemental addition to an existing bit set on a service vehicle or shop bench.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed and removed by hand into any 1/4 inch hex bit holder. Ensure the bit is fully seated before applying torque to avoid fastener damage or bit slippage. When used with a power tool, set the clutch to an appropriate torque setting for the fastener size to prevent stripping. Inspect the bit tip for wear or rounding before each use and replace if the Torx lobes show deformation.
