Review on πŸ”§ Bondhus 40656 3mm Ball End Tip Screwdriver with ProGuard Finish - Compact and Precise by Carlos Long

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good but needs a stronger grip to handle it

I've used them extensively in robotics. They are very good in most cases, but when you really need to turn the screw (e.g. when clamping a friction fit on a round axle) the plastic/rubber grip can fail at the connection with the shaft. I have never seen such a tool as a screwdriver before. The handle appears to be made out of a fairly standard hard plastic rather than the glassy hard material used in most screwdrivers. Either that or it requires more expansion inside the handle to support more torque. This problem affects the minimal cases in a hex screwdriver of this size. So I'm only deducting one star. It's great for everything but the highest torque use.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • -
