Klein Tools 618-1/4M Magnetic Nut Driver 1/4 in 18 in

Product Description

The KLEIN TOOLS 618-1/4M is a magnetic tip nut driver built for trade professionals who need reliable fastener control in tight or overhead work. The 1/4 inch drive end features a magnetic tip that holds hex head fasteners securely, reducing dropped hardware during installation. The 18 inch hollow shaft accommodates long bolt shanks without bottoming out, making it well suited for panel work, electrical enclosures, and HVAC cabinet assembly. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople commonly reach for this driver when working in deep or confined fastener locations.

This nut driver is appropriate for residential and light commercial service work where standard-length drivers cannot reach recessed fasteners. The extended 18 inch shaft provides clearance when working through knockouts, within electrical panels, or inside equipment cabinets. The magnetic tip assists single-handed fastener starts, which is particularly useful on ladders or in confined spaces. It is sold in a pack of 3, making it a practical addition to a shared tool crib or service van stocked for a crew.

This tool is used by licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, and plumbers for fastener installation and removal during equipment service. No power source is required.
