It accepts 5\/16 inch hex bits and provides a secure, positive connection between the bit and the tool. The holder measures 3-1\/16 inches in overall length with a body diameter of 9\/16 inches. It is suited for production assembly, mechanical contracting, and trade work where fast bit changes and reliable torque transfer are required. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical contractors reach for this type of holder when driving fasteners repeatedly in tight or open access conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit holder fits standard 1\/4 inch hex power tool chucks found on cordless drills, impact drivers, and screwguns commonly used in HVAC equipment assembly, electrical panel work, and plumbing fixture installation. The 5\/16 inch hex drive size is typical for sheet metal screws and equipment mounting fasteners encountered across trade applications. It is sold individually and compatible with standard power hex bit sets in the same hex size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch hex drive shank fits standard power tool chucks without an adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16 inch hex bit acceptance for common sheet metal and equipment fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-1\/16 inch overall length provides reach in recessed or panel-mounted fastener locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9\/16 inch body diameter keeps the holder compact in tight access areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-piece construction for consistent torque transfer during power driving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style power hex bit holder compatible with 1\/4 inch hex drive power tools including cordless drills, impact drivers, and screwguns that accept standard hex shank accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires no tools beyond the power tool itself. Insert the 1\/4 inch hex shank fully into the tool chuck before applying torque. Inspect the holder for wear or deformation before each use, and replace if the hex socket shows signs of rounding or cracking. No electrical shutoff is required for the holder itself, but always follow lockout\/tagout procedures when driving fasteners on energized equipment panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBit Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Bit Holder\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-1\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112814\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: APEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: M-498\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"APEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540601864498,"sku":"M-498","price":77.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/361dab7e08bce77259ce75437fcdc532.jpg?v=1785859717","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/apex-m-498-power-hex-bit-holder-5-16-inch-1-4-hex-drive","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
