Pozidriv screwdrivers recommendation needed.

[RWD3M]

Hi all,

I've been needing a decent set of Pozi screwdrivers for longer than I'd like to admit and have found these:

FACOM ATD.J5 - 5pc Pozidriv Protwist Screwdriver Set

Has anyone had any experience with these or can recommend something better?

I've a full set of Philips but sometimes, you just need the right tool!

No experience of the Facom ones, but any Pozidrive will be better than using a Philips - that's a pet hate of mine.

Other decent ones are Wera, WiHa, Felo, PBSwiss are probably the gold standard but difficult to get hold of and very expensive.

 

[skotl]

Facom are decent, or Wera

Edit: snap!

Halfords advanced come with a lifetime warranty, good quality and any damaged stuff usually changed with no quibble.

I've had a set of facom screwdrivers for about 20 years and they've been great. No wear on them even now!

whats wrong with using Philips on pozi screws?
Exwifey always did it; and she knew what she was doing and the previous owner of my house did the same to every screw in the house.
I've become very good at getting them out

it shags the screw drivers out using a pozi on a phillips. i kick off if anyone uses mine and does it . i only buy the wera ones 8 quid a go . they just last over a year on hardened screws day in day out then .i chuck them

Facom for me. I got a mixed set (3x pozi, 3x phillips, 5x flat bladed) many years ago. They are my main set - were being used today - and are as good now as when they were new.
The only downside is quite a large gap in the flat blade sizes. 2x small are good for electrical work, 2x large are good for heavy work. I'm often looking for something between what I have...
Not quite the set I have but very similar https://www.expert-toolstore.com/fa...ed-pozidriv-phillips-protwist-screwdriver-set

Halfords Pro is also decent quality at good prices (ask about a trade card for extra discounts & offers.
My tiny sizes are Wira and I rate them but I've not seen sets with the larger sizes.

 

[brightspark]

i did once try snapon scredrivers once 15 quid each and didnt last any longer than the wera ones for 8 quid

 

[winchman]

I am a big fan of the Snap on Hard handles but they are shockingly expensive.
Wera are great but I also have some Facom which I cant fault and a Sealy set at work that are also good. When Winchboy started his apprenticeship I bought him an Aldi set of Electrical insulated screw drivers and apart from the terminal they are still working fine in daily use and at £6 you cant go wrong.

 

[winchman]

Whilst on the subject these are Philips not Pozi which is a bonus for some?
I urgently needed a T8 Torx it's odd as most sets only go down to T10. So have a look on line and guess what's cheapest?
Aldi full set of small Torx 5-T10 included in this bigger set all for £6.99 mist places wanted that just for the small torx drivers, the lady at the till even gave me a receipt as they are guaranteed!

Grind them to a point and use them as bradawls or alignment tools. I have a couple and they come in really handy.

 

[fizzy]

I bought one of these - very useful - does 3 phillips and 3 pozi in just 1 screwdriver

Pardon our interruption...

 

[chunkolini]

I was joking about the philips on pozi thing.
it drives me mad. Exwifey could not see any issues as she ******** up everything she touched. Pliers instead of spanners was another foible.
Every single hinge in my house looks like this as does any other pozi screw. Previous house owner was a grade A idiot.

I’ve seen many screws on Japanese bikes ruined by pozi and Philips screwdrivers instead of JIS screwdrivers.

I have lots of Facom Protwist screwdrivers. I rate them very highly, not stupid expensive and keep the edges. Handles are good for getting a grip on too.
It's a ten from Len

Yep, I use them day in day out, they're great.

You cannot beat PB Swiss.

Hoffmann group is the only sensible place to buy them

The facom guarantee is worth it's weight in gold, no receipts needed. You can buy knackered facom stuff and get it exchanged for new, trust me I know.
