ESD safe slotted screwdriver 1/4 inch, 6.4 x 152.4 mm blade, ergo handle - Weller XPE144

Terminals and connection blocks need a wide slotted blade that fills the screw head instead of camming out. The XPE144 provides a 1/4 inch tip on 152.4 mm of blade length and, at 247.7 mm overall, still reaches into deep terminal rows.

What the driver delivers

• Ergonomically shaped grip with a soft non-slip coating carries sustained high torque without tiring the hand early.
• Impact resistant composite core in the handle plus a one-piece unbreakable cap that turns with little friction in the palm.
• Thumb rest adds axial force on the screw and the narrow pinch section keeps the tool controlled during fine adjustment.
• Chrome molybdenum steel shank with a satin finish, the black oxide tip throws back no stray light.
• The handle core is declared ESD safe by the manufacturer, which allows work on electrostatic sensitive assemblies.

Applications

Terminals and connection blocks, housing and cover screws, electronics manufacturing and maintenance at ESD protected workstations.

Standards and compliance

The manufacturer lists the tool as ESD safe in its property table. Whether a workstation meets IEC 61340-5-1 is decided by verification of the complete EPA, not by a single tool.
