Review on Wiha 26791 Precision T1 T8 8 Piece by Ryan Cornelius

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Small but very well made

Bought this kit to disassemble an old hard drive (I use the platters as a stand and can be sure nobody will try to recover my data) that has smaller torx screws than my moment the smallest screwdriver (T8). I was hesitating between this set and a set with more types but in a smaller size, but immediately used only torx screws and felt good about having every single size - more varied sets also tend to be a bit more expensive. From perspective, the smallest sizes seem like overkill, as the smallest screws in a hard drive were T4 and seemed incredibly small (the set goes up to T1). (no glue or heat seal), suitable for storage and very good for display, making the packaging advertised with this product less useful (the packaging is not made specifically for this set and I regret the purchase a little). The individual screwdrivers are very small, but appear robust and well made. The red twist cap on the end and the small ribs and edges on the handle make it very comfortable and offer excellent control. Some of the screws on my hard drive were surprisingly tight but didn't chip or chip, and I'm glad I didn't use some of the much cheaper kits that complained of poor quality.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
