Apex UG-838 Power Bit Holder with Guard 3/8 Hex Drive

Product Description

The APEX UG-838 is a steel power bit holder with guard designed for use with power screwdriving tools in production, assembly, and general fastening applications. It accepts a 1/4 inch hex bit insert and features a 3/8 inch hex drive shank for connection to power tool adapters or pneumatic screwdrivers. The overall length is 1.5 inches, making it a compact option for work in confined spaces. The integrated guard helps protect the bit and workpiece during high-speed driving operations. This component is installed and used by assembly technicians, maintenance mechanics, and trade professionals working in light manufacturing or mechanical service environments.

The UG-838 is suited for benchtop assembly lines, field service kits, and tooling setups where quick bit changes are required. Its compact 1.5 inch overall length fits standard tool holders and adapters equipped with a 3/8 inch hex drive interface. The 1/4 inch hex bit socket accepts standard insert bits, keeping tool changeovers fast. This holder is appropriate for both production volume fastening and general repair tasks where a guarded bit holder adds control and reduces workpiece marring.
