Wiha 71499 Quick Release Hex Bit Holder Magnetic

Product Description

The WIHA 71499 is a quick-release hex driver bit holder designed for fast, secure bit changes during electrical, mechanical, and general trade work. The holder uses a hex drive connection with a magnetic retention design that keeps bits firmly seated during operation. The quick-release collar allows single-handed bit swaps, reducing downtime on the job. This holder is well-suited for use with standard 1/4-inch hex shank power bits and hand driver bits, and it is typically installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, and general contractors who need consistent bit control across a range of fastening tasks.

The WIHA 71499 is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where frequent bit changes are required. It fits standard power screwdrivers, drills, and impact-rated driver handles that accept 1/4-inch hex shank accessories. The holder ships individually and is a practical add-on for tool kits that rely on interchangeable bit systems. Available overall lengths in the WIHA 71499 line include 60, 100, 150, 200, and 250 mm, allowing selection based on reach requirements in confined or open work spaces.

Installation Notes

No dedicated trade license is required to install or replace a bit holder.

Confirm the quick-release collar engages properly before applying torque to any fastener.
