Screwdrivers: A wide range of handle designs, including Classic, Multicraft, SwissGrip, SwissGrip Evo, VDE, and electronics screwdrivers, with various tip types. The parallel slotted screwdriver tip is a unique Swiss specialty, not covered by international standards. Utilization of special alloy steel and handles made from cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB) or Santoprene-coated polypropylene ensures excellent shock resistance and durability.Screwdrivers:Awiderangeofhandledesigns,includingClassic,Multicraft,SwissGrip,SwissGripEvo,VDE,andelectronicsscrewdrivers,withvarioustiptypes.TheparallelslottedscrewdrivertipisauniqueSwissspecialty,notcoveredbyinternationalstandards.Utilizationofspecialalloysteelandhandlesmadefromcelluloseacetatebutyrate(CAB)orSantoprene-coatedpolypropyleneensuresexcellentshockresistanceanddurability.
Hex Key L-wrenches: Available in a broad range of sizes from 0.71mm to 22mm. Manufactured from a proprietary spring steel-based alloy, providing exceptional elasticity and toughness despite high hardness values (58-60 HRC). Precise manufacturing with minimal tolerances ensures optimal fit in screw heads.HexKeyL-wrenches:Availableinabroadrangeofsizesfrom0.71mmto22mm.Manufacturedfromaproprietaryspringsteel-basedalloy,providingexceptionalelasticityandtoughnessdespitehighhardnessvalues(58-60HRC).Precisemanufacturingwithminimaltolerancesensuresoptimalfitinscrewheads.
Torque Tools: Precision instruments suitable for delicate tasks requiring constant tightening torque. Factory calibrated according to DIN EN ISO 6789:2017 standards, with annual recalibration recommended. Most tools come with a lifetime guarantee, with torque screwdrivers having a three-year warranty.TorqueTools:Precisioninstrumentssuitablefordelicatetasksrequiringconstanttighteningtorque.FactorycalibratedaccordingtoDINENISO6789:2017standards,withannualrecalibrationrecommended.Mosttoolscomewithalifetimeguarantee,withtorquescrewdrivershavingathree-yearwarranty.
Striking Tools: A diverse range including mallets, chisels, and punches. Mallets feature recoil-free designs and handles made from FSC®-certified hickory wood or high-quality fiberglass. Chisels offer high hardness and excellent edge retention for demanding industrial, construction, and craft applications. Special alloy steel prevents breakage and maintains high elasticity.StrikingTools:Adiverserangeincludingmallets,chisels,andpunches.Malletsfeaturerecoil-freedesignsandhandlesmadefromFSC®-certifiedhickorywoodorhigh-qualityfiberglass.Chiselsofferhighhardnessandexcellentedgeretentionfordemandingindustrial,construction,andcraftapplications.Specialalloysteelpreventsbreakageandmaintainshighelasticity.
PrecisionBits and Mobile Sets: Precision bits for various screw types (Torx, Phillips, Pozidriv, etc.) and portable tool sets. Bits are protected by a colored plasma coating for rust prevention. The VDE interchangeable handle and slim interchangeable blade system offer ease of use in electrical work through a click system and color coding. Each tool is marked with a unique serial number, enabling traceability of production history since 1992.PrecisionBitsandMobileSets:Precisionbitsforvariousscrewtypes(Torx,Phillips,Pozidriv,etc.)andportabletoolsets.Bitsareprotectedbyacoloredplasmacoatingforrustprevention.TheVDEinterchangeablehandleandsliminterchangeablebladesystemoffereaseofuseinelectricalworkthroughaclicksystemandcolorcoding.Eachtoolismarkedwithauniqueserialnumber,enablingtraceabilityofproductionhistorysince1992.
