What is a Hex Screwdriver and What is it Used For?
A hex screwdriver is a tool designed to work with screws and bolts that have a hexagonal head — six flat sides. This type of screw is very common in electronics, mechanics, furniture assembly, and devices requiring secure and robust fastening.
Hex screwdrivers allow uniform force application on the screw faces, minimising the risk of deforming or damaging the screw head. Additionally, they provide a precise and comfortable grip, facilitating work even in tight or difficult-to-reach spaces.
History and Evolution of Hex Screwdrivers
The design of hex screwdrivers has evolved over the years to meet the growing demands for precision and durability in industrial and electronic sectors. From their origins as basic tools for hex screws, they now incorporate innovations such as ergonomic handles, special steel treatments, and wear-resistant tips.
Today, hex screwdrivers are not only used for assembly and repair but also in applications requiring high levels of control and safety, such as consumer electronics, automotive, and specialised machinery.
