Stanley 66-101-A Slotted Screwdriver Acetate Handle

Product Description

The STANLEY 66-101-A is a slotted (flat-blade) screwdriver built for precision fastener work in tight spaces. The blade measures 0.125 inches wide and 2 inches long, giving technicians controlled access to narrow slot-head screws common in electrical panels, HVAC controls, and light fixtures. Overall length is 4.375 inches. The handle is molded acetate, which provides a firm grip and resists common shop solvents. This tool is sized for detail work rather than heavy driving, making it well suited for terminal screws, cover-plate hardware, and instrument adjustment tasks.

The 66-101-A fits naturally into the tool pouch of electricians, HVAC technicians, and plumbers who regularly work with small-gauge slot-head fasteners on control boards, thermostat terminals, and junction box hardware. Its compact overall length makes it practical in confined equipment compartments where a full-size screwdriver cannot be maneuvered. Professionals who service residential and light commercial equipment will find the narrow blade width appropriate for #0 and #1 slot-head fasteners encountered on terminal strips and low-voltage control wiring access panels.

Key Features

• Narrow 0.125-inch blade width targets small slot-head fasteners without damaging adjacent terminals
• 2-inch blade length provides reach into recessed screw positions while limiting torque overload on fine hardware
• Compact 4.375-inch overall length fits tight equipment compartments and confined access panels
• Acetate handle offers chemical resistance and a positive grip for controlled, low-torque driving
• Weighs 0.066 pounds — lightweight enough for extended detail work without hand fatigue

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose slotted screwdriver for small slot-head fasteners commonly found in residential and light commercial HVAC, electrical, and plumbing equipment.

Installation Notes

This screwdriver is intended for low-torque detail work on small fasteners. Always de-energize electrical equipment and verify zero voltage with a meter before working on terminal screws or control boards. Use only enough force to seat the blade fully in the slot before turning — blade tip damage occurs when the tool is forced into an oversized or mismatched slot. Electricians and HVAC technicians should follow applicable NEC and equipment manufacturer service guidelines when accessing energized enclosures.
