How good are cheap hex drivers.

So I bought these drivers to replace my T handled ones. They were reasonably priced for occasional use, and as yet they're still going strong. I use the smaller of the sizes which tended to round very easily on the T handled type i had before, but these haven't as yet.

I would recommend these drivers and definitely buy again.

Light duty only: Poor durability, strip screws

I have had these for 6 months now. These screwdrivers are quite comfortable, but sadly they have not been good to use.

They are not precisely formed, so as a result, they have a frustrating tendency to strip screws (especially the 1.5, 2 and 2.5). The tips themselves have also started to round over with use making this problem even worse.

The actual metal is quite soft. They are made from S92 steel, which is a great steel for corrosion resistance (no rust on them yet!) but unfortunately is also quite a soft steel for making tools with. The size printing also comes off easily after only a few uses.

They are cheap, but unless you are willing to cut/grind off the blunt tips every 6 months, they are short lived.

===> As a result, I do NOT recommend them. <===

Unfortunately, it seems you have to spend more for some usa/german tool steel if you want them to last longer - MIP, Wera, Wiha, etc.

Just the Job

If you have a job that requires an Alan wrench and does not need a small right angle then I recommend these drivers they are easier to use than a conventional Alan key. These ones were a reasonable price and of good quality.Read full review...

Good and rare tools!

I am really happy with the quality of these screwdrivers! They look a bit chincy when they arrive, but have prooven to be strong and very durable! I have allready stripped a few bolts and even broken some bolt heads with them, but there is no sign of wear or even use on the screwdrivers. I strongly recommend them!Read full review...

Good quality set

Bought to assist in building a Tamiya Sand Scorcher. Much easier than using the Allen keys that come with the kit.
Good quality set that have a nice feel to them. Very happy with the purchase.

Worth the cost to improve disassembly and assembly of small awkward fixings.

It has made certain fiddle jobs easier. not robust but don't need to be.
