Review on 💪 BOSCH ITP2R2205 5 Pc. 2 In. Phillips/Square #2 Impact Tough Screwdriving Bit: Superior Durability and Versatility by John Murphy

Revainrating 1 out of 5

These tips are good as long as they don't send you to the emergency room.

I buy Bosch because I think they make quality products. These whipping tips are not a quality product. Although the tips hold the #2 screw well, they break with use. If they break, it looks like the tip of the screw has fallen out. This happens suddenly, causing you to pierce and extrude the workpiece hard. The attached photo shows the fourth tip of the five packs I bought. While the previous 3 crashed without major incident due to wearing goggles, Tip 4 sent me to the ER. When I was unscrewing a cover screw and guiding the head of the screw with my left index finger and thumb, the tip broke and the jagged tip went through my index finger. Since I couldn't remember when my last tetanus shot was given, I called my GP and was told to go to the emergency room. Luckily for me it was just a pinched skin. Not wanting to repeat it, I threw away bit number five. If anyone from Bosch is reading this review, please know that I want safe products. If I wanted cheap I would use Ali Express products. The damaged bit was used in a 20V Dewalt Impact Wrench (DCF885). The measured internal flat of the screwdriver is 0.251" and the measured flat of the Bosch bit is 0.247 giving a 3000" clearance. This is a normal gap, not a case of brand mixing. Let your management know that people will get hurt using their products and stop cutting corners.
