Mini screwdrivers

All this talk of camera lenses has reminded me that I need a high quality set
of mini screwdrivers.

Quite willing to spend the right money on the right set.

Any recommendations?

We use these on our production line and in the labs for fine assembly work.
See table at bottom for links to other sets.

Have you personally used them?

Looks good and they have a trade counter a few minutes away.

 

They meet the main criteria I look for in screwdrivers, namely the tips
aren't silver. That means they'll last a lot longer ime.

 

Yes. I also have Moody and Lindstrom sets and these much cheaper sets
perform just as well for low torque (instrument/fine electromech/optical)
applications we undertake. I've not killed any tips or screws yet.

You can maybe even have a look before you buy at a Trade Counter.

"Tri-lobe shape of handle provides comfortable gripe during rotation"

Should be fine for those prone to griping ..

I rather like the Facom drivers, they feel right in the hand and are
superbly engineered.

Pricey, but worth it imo.

 

Well, I didn't get round to going to rs-online as later that day I mentioned to
a friend that I was looking for a set and he presented me with a set of these

I've used them a few times this week and I have to say I'm dead impressed with
them. No mangled screw heads and a nice feel when using them.

No silver tips either
