Dewalt DW2218B Magnetic Nut Setter 1/4 X 1-7/8 Inch

Product Description

The DEWALT DW2218B is a magnetic nut setter designed for fast, secure fastening in high-volume screw and nut driving applications. Built with a 1/4-inch hex drive and measuring 1-7/8 inches in length, this nut setter fits standard power tool chuck systems and is well suited for electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general contractors who drive hex-head fasteners repeatedly throughout the workday. Patented geometry at the driving tip reduces rounding on hex fasteners, while an advanced hardening process delivers extended service life under sustained use. Extra-strength magnets hold fasteners firmly during placement, reducing dropped hardware in tight or overhead spaces.

This nut setter is used across residential and light commercial construction and service trades wherever 1/4-inch hex-head screws, sheet metal screws, or self-drilling fasteners are driven at volume. It is a common tool accessory for electricians installing electrical panels and junction boxes, HVAC technicians securing equipment covers and ductwork, and plumbers fastening access panels or fixtures. The compact 1-7/8-inch length keeps the profile low for use in confined areas without sacrificing driving torque transfer.

Key Features

• Patented tip geometry reduces rounding and cam-out on hex fasteners
• Advanced hardening process extends bit life under heavy daily use
• Extra-strength magnets retain fasteners securely during placement and driving
• 1/4-inch hex shank fits all standard quick-change chuck drivers and drills
• Compact 1-7/8-inch length suits tight and confined install locations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style accessory compatible with any power tool or hand driver accepting a standard 1/4-inch hex shank bit.

Installation Notes

This nut setter is used by trade professionals with cordless or corded drills and impact drivers equipped with a 1/4-inch quick-change chuck. Set driver clutch or impact settings appropriately for the fastener size and base material to avoid overdriving. Inspect the magnet and driving tip periodically for wear, as a worn tip accelerates fastener rounding.
