Eklind 101220 Ball End Hex Bit 5/16 Inch 1/4 Drive

Product Description

The EKLIND 101220 is a ball end hex screwdriver bit designed for use with 1/4 inch hex drive power tools and manual bit holders. The 5/16 inch hex size and 2 inch overall length make it well suited for fastening and loosening hex socket fasteners in confined or angled work spaces. The ball end tip allows up to 25 degrees of off-axis engagement, which reduces repositioning time during installation. Constructed from alloy steel with an oxide finish, this bit is built for repeated use in field and shop settings. Electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanical contractors are the primary users of this type of bit.

This bit is used wherever 5/16 inch hex fasteners appear in mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, and plumbing fixture hardware. The 1/4 inch drive shank fits standard quick-change bit holders and power screwdrivers. The ball end design is particularly useful when fastener access is at an angle or when working in tight equipment bays where straight-in access is not possible. This bit is not impact rated and should be used with manual or standard variable-speed drivers only.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed by trade professionals using 1/4 inch drive manual or variable-speed power tools.

Inspect the bit tip for wear or rounding before each use to avoid fastener damage.
