ESD safe slotted screwdriver 1/8 inch, 3.2 x 101.6 mm blade, ergo handle - Weller XPE184

Small slotted screws on boards and compact housings need a slim blade that finds the slot without touching neighbouring parts. The XPE184 uses a 1/8 inch tip on a shank of only 3.2 mm diameter.

What the driver delivers

• 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.
• Blade of 3.2 mm diameter and 101.6 mm blade length at 182.3 mm overall, so the reach is a fixed quantity when planning.

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.
