Ball mechanism assumes holding function

Screw is held tight

Wera has launched additions to screwdriving tools with a holding function.

The company is thus responding to the wish of many users to hold the screw or nut on or in the tool so that it does not fall off or get lost before or during the screwdriving process. For this purpose, the manufacturer has developed a special geometry that builds up a clamping force between the tool and the screw.

This is strong enough to hold the screw on the tool. In the case of sockets for external hexagon screws and bit sockets with an internal hexagon or hex-plus profile, a special ball mechanism takes over the holding function. In all cases, the tool can be removed again at the end of the screwdriving process; this enables fast and effective screwdriving even in hard-to-reach areas where the second hand cannot be used to thread or hold the screw. The screwdriving tool manufacturer has now added 3/8-inch sockets and bit sockets for Torx and Hex-Plus profiles to its range, which offer this holding function.

Wera is also showing its colors on the new screwdriving tools with holding function, as they are all equipped with the "Take it easy" tool finder: This is a color coding by size applied to the tool with a banderole. pb
