Value Collection 1B.814 Screwdriver Insert Bit 8 Point

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1B.814 is an 8-point tamper resistant spanner screwdriver insert bit machined from alloy steel. Insert bits of this type are designed to drive spanner-head fasteners — a two-hole recessed pattern common on tamper resistant hardware used in public fixtures, electrical panels, and institutional equipment. The alloy steel construction provides hardness suitable for repetitive driving without significant tip deformation. At 1.5 inches overall length, this bit fits standard 1/4-inch hex quick-change holders found on most power drivers and manual bit handles.

This insert bit is used wherever spanner-head fasteners are specified for tamper resistance — including elevator interiors, public restroom fixtures, transit infrastructure, and commercial electrical enclosures. Electricians, maintenance technicians, and facilities crews working in commercial or institutional environments will encounter spanner fasteners most frequently. The 8 point size matches the corresponding spanner screw that requires two pins seated simultaneously to engage and drive.

Key Features

• 8-point spanner tip geometry for tamper resistant fastener driving
• Alloy steel construction for hardness and durability under torque
• 1.5 inches overall length fits standard 1/4-inch hex bit holders
• Tamper resistant design limits access to standard flathead and Phillips drivers
• Single-piece insert bit — no moving parts, straightforward replacement

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/4-inch hex quick-change bit holders and manual screwdriver handles accepting insert bits. Fits 8-point spanner-head fasteners requiring a tamper resistant driver.

Installation Notes

Installation and fastener driving with tamper resistant bits should follow applicable electrical or mechanical codes for the system being serviced. Seat the insert bit fully into the bit holder before applying torque to prevent cam-out or bit ejection. Do not use impact drivers at high torque settings with insert bits unless the bit is rated for impact use, as alloy steel insert bits can fracture under sudden shock loading. Inspect the bit tip for wear before each use — a deformed tip will strip spanner fasteners rather than seat properly.
