Take it easy Tool Finder

“Take it easy” tool finder with colour coding according to sizes – for simple and rapid accessing of the required tool.

Titanium nitride coated bits

Industrial applications are subject to permanent stresses that place high demands on the durability of the tool. Bits for these applications are coated with extremely hard titanium nitride. This abrasion-proof coating provides the necessary hardness that is required on a mass production line.

TORQ-SET® Mplus

Wera developed the Mplus profile with stronger flanks compared with tools with a conventional TORQ-SET® profile. This
results in approximately 70 % extra torsional strength and greatly extends the service life of Wera Mplus tools.

TORQUE-indicators

Wera TORQUE-indicators have been factory pre-set to TORQUE values recommended by leading carbide tool manufacturers. Tightening values are precisely related to the size of the TORX®, TORX PLUS® or hexagon socket screw. TORQUE-indicators ensure safe and easily loosened screw connections.

TORQUE Screwdrivers

• Adjustable TORQUE screwdrivers:
  TORQUE can be set to the required scale value by hand
  without special tools.
• Pre-set adjustable TORQUE screwdrivers:
  With pre-set TORQUE, adjustable within a defined range.

Torsion bits

By diverting TORQUE peaks into the Torsion zone of the bit, premature wear and tear is avoided and dramatically improved service life is achieved.

TORX® BO with borehole

TORX® tools with a borehole prevent the unauthorised unfastening of safety screws. The screws contain a pin that protrudes into the drive profile so that “normal” TORX® tools cannot be used. This pin fits into the borehole of
TORX® BO tools allowing safety screws to be unfastened.

TORX® with holding function (HF)

The optimised profile wedges the screw to the tool. This is very important in situations where a magnetic screw holder
cannot or must not be used (for instance, jobs involving power tools where metal filings attracted by a magnet could affect the screwdriving process, or jobs requiring wedging forces and stainless steel tools, which are non-magnetic because of the nature of the material). The wedging effect can be guaranteed only for tools made to Acument Global Technologies Inc. specifications.

TORX® with pin

The protruding pin that fits into the borehole of the screw makes it easier to centre the tool in the screw recess.

TORX® Wedge

The conical TORX® profile provides a better fit in the screw. Combined with a great recess depth this produces a pinch effect.

TORX PLUS®

Compared with the “normal”, round TORX® profile the elliptical profile of TORX PLUS® tools makes it possible to increase the size of the 6 flanks that transfer TORQUE between the tool and the screw. The force applied by the user is distributed across a larger surface area allowing more TORQUE to be transferred and extending the service life of both the screw and the tool.

TORX PLUS® IPR

A 5-flank TORX PLUS® profile with a borehole. This drive geometry has only five flanks instead of the usual six and a
borehole to protect safety screws against unauthorised unfastening. The screws cannot be turned with conventional, widely available tools.

Tough absorbing bits (Z)

Tough absorbing bits for hard materials, e.g. sheet steel or metal. Here the screw initially turns smoothly inside the defined thread. As soon as the head of the screw touches the surface of the material large amounts of peak TORQUE are generated that affects both the screw and the tool. Bits that are too hard are likely to break under these conditions.

Two-component clip for L-keys

The durable clip material ensures that L-keys are securely fixed and easy to remove. Abrasion resistant markings help you find the right size tool straight away.
