By: John Glauben J. Caduan Flat Head Screwdriver A flat-head screwdriver is a screwdriver with a wedge-shaped flat tip, used to tighten or loosen screws that have a linear slot in their heads. Phillips Head Screwdriver The Phillips Head Screwdriver is a type of screwdriver that
is designed to tighten and loosen screws with a cross shaped
slot, they are also designed to “cam out” so you don’t
overtighten the screws, they will slip out of the screw head once a certain
torque limit is reached.
Torx Screwdriver The Torx Screwdriver is a type of screwdriver that is designed to remove torx screws which are designed to be tamper resistant and is mostly used on components of automobiles, bicycles, and computers, things that the manufacturer wants to limit consumer access from. Hex Driver or Nut Driver It functions in the same way as any other screwdriver but it tightens nuts and bolts. Needle-nose Pliers The needle-nose pliers are hand tools with a long pointy nose that is used mostly for cutting and holding wires, it is also used to hold other small components. Wire Cutter Wire Cutters are a tool used for cutting wires and stripping away their plastic insulation to expose bare metal wire. Tweezers Tweezers are tools that are used to hold and manipulate small things that the human hand can’t. Parts Retriever Similar to the tweezers, the parts retriever can place and retrieve small parts that the human fingers cannot grasp, these tools can be used in places where the human fingers have a hard time reaching into. Flashlight The flashlight is obviously used to illuminate places where light cannot normally illuminate because of its maneuverability.
