Adjusting screwdriver for slotted shafts up to 4.5 mm, 75 mm blade - Bahco 5550-4.5

Trimming work is decided by the fit between blade and slotted shaft. The 5550-4.5 covers shafts up to 4.5 mm and transmits torque through a blade just 0.5 mm thick that reaches adjusters 75 mm down into an assembly.

Benefits in use

• Blade width 4.5 mm matched to slotted shafts up to 4.5 mm, so the blade seats fully and does not wander in the slot.
• Blade thickness 0.5 mm for the fine slots of spindle resistors and miniature potentiometers.
• Blade length 75 mm reaches adjusters located behind components and inside deep housings.
• Vanadium Extra material, chrome-plated, for dimensionally stable blade edges and corrosion protection.
• Overall length 140 mm with a slim plastic handle that allows sensitive turning from the fingertips.

Applications

Alignment and calibration in electronics manufacturing, at test and repair benches and in the laboratory, wherever spindle resistors, trimmers and miniature potentiometers are set.

Standards and compliance

For this model the manufacturer's property table lists neither ESD capability to IEC 61340-5-1 nor VDE testing to IEC 60900. Work on ESD-sensitive assemblies or on live parts calls for tools certified for that purpose.
