Stanley 66-174-A Slotted Screwdriver Square Shank

Product Description

The STANLEY 66-174-A is a standard slotted screwdriver built for everyday fastening and service work across trades and maintenance applications. The blade measures 0.25 inches wide and 4 inches long, with an overall length of 8.25 inches. A square shank runs through the acetate handle, allowing a wrench to be applied to the shank for added torque on stubborn fasteners. The acetate handle provides a firm grip during extended use. Weighing 0.28 pounds, this screwdriver is a practical hand tool for electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general maintenance professionals who need a reliable slotted driver for panel work, terminal connections, and equipment service.

This screwdriver is suited for residential and light commercial service tasks where a standard slotted tip is required. It is appropriate for driving and removing slotted screws found in electrical enclosures, HVAC access panels, plumbing fixture hardware, and general equipment covers. The 4-inch blade length gives adequate reach in recessed applications while keeping the tool compact enough for tight service spaces.

Installation Notes

De-energize electrical panels and equipment before using this screwdriver on or near live terminals, in accordance with NFPA 70E safe work practices. Ensure the blade tip is fully seated in the fastener slot before applying torque to prevent cam-out and tip damage. When using a wrench on the square shank for additional torque, apply steady controlled force to avoid fastener or tool damage.
