Dewalt Accessories DW2228IR Magnetic Nut Driver 7/16 in

Product Description

The DEWALT ACCESSORIES DW2228IR is a 7/16-inch magnetic nut driver engineered for use with impact drivers and impact wrenches. Built to handle high-torque applications, it withstands up to 2,000 inch-pounds of torque through an advanced hardening process that maximizes durability under repeated stress. The patented recessed-corner geometry drives on the flats of hex fasteners rather than the corners, reducing rounding and metal shavings during operation. At 2-9/16 inches in length, this driver is sized for tight-access work. The extra-strength magnet holds fasteners securely on the bit, keeping one hand free and speeding up fastener placement in demanding field conditions. HVAC techs, electricians, and mechanical contractors will find it especially useful for repetitive fastening tasks on panels, equipment housings, and fixtures.

The DW2228IR suits residential and commercial installation work wherever a 7/16-inch hex fastener is driven at high speed or high torque. It pairs directly with any standard 1/4-inch hex impact driver or impact wrench. Common applications include sheet-metal screw driving in HVAC ductwork, equipment panel assembly, and electrical enclosure work. The compact 2-9/16-inch length reduces interference in confined spaces such as air handler cabinets and electrical panels. Sold in a package quantity of three, it allows techs to stage drivers at multiple points or replace worn units without downtime.

Installation Notes

This nut driver is installed and used by licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanical contractors. Before servicing any electrical enclosure or powered equipment, de-energize the circuit and follow applicable lockout/tagout procedures per OSHA and NEC requirements. Insert the 1/4-inch hex shank fully into the impact driver chuck before operation. Do not use this driver with a standard drill or screwdriver where impact rating is not confirmed, as non-impact-rated tools may transfer excessive stress to the driver shank.
