ESD safe slotted screwdriver 3/16 inch, 4.8 x 152.4 mm blade, ergo handle - Weller XPE3166

Between the fine 1/8 inch blade and the wide 1/4 inch blade sits the size that fits most often in daily service work. The XPE3166 occupies it with a 3/16 inch tip on 152.4 mm of blade length and 247.7 mm overall.

What the driver delivers

• 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 4.8 mm diameter and 152.4 mm blade length at 247.7 mm overall, so the reach is a fixed quantity when planning.
• Ergonomically shaped grip with a soft non-slip coating carries sustained high torque without tiring the hand early.

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.
