It’s time to upgrade your screwdriver set.
Especially if you work around electrical systems, crowded panels or screws that refuse to stay on the tip. The Klein Tools 6-Piece Insulated Hooded Screw-Holding Screwdriver Set gives electricians a safer, more controlled way to start and drive common fasteners.
What Makes This Set Different?
Its hooded screw-holding design is what stands out. Instead of relying on magnetism, the screwdriver mechanically grips the fastener. This is helpful when working with nonmagnetic screws or reaching into confined spaces where dropping one creates a much bigger problem.
A sliding sleeve engages the screw-holding feature, allowing you to position and start a screw with one hand. That leaves your other hand available to steady yourself, hold a component or manage wiring.
Built for Electrical Work
Each screwdriver features bright orange, flame-resistant insulation rated for work up to 1000V. The insulation meets or exceeds ASTM F1505 standards, giving electrical professionals added protection when following proper energized-work procedures.
Klein’s Cushion-Grip™ handles provide a comfortable, non-slip grip and greater torque. Each handle also has an integrated tether hole that can help prevent dropped tools when working from a ladder or at height.
The six-piece set includes:
- #1 Phillips screwdriver
- #2 Phillips screwdriver
- #1 square screwdriver
- #2 square screwdriver
- 3/16-inch slotted screwdriver
- 1/4-inch slotted screwdriver
Who Is It For?
If you’re an electrician, HVAC tech, maintenance guy, or just the friend everyone calls when the lights go out, this set is for you. It’s got all the drive types you need for panels, outlets, switches, fixtures, and whatever else your boss throws at you.
You get six commonly used screwdrivers, 1000V insulation and a screw-holding design that makes awkward jobs easier to manage. If your current screwdrivers spend more time dropping fasteners than driving them, the Klein Tools 85156KINS Set is a worthwhile upgrade.
Always de-energize circuits when possible and follow appropriate electrical safety procedures and PPE requirements.
