Screwdriver bit BA HCO 59S/50PH2 Phillips PH2, length 50 mm

BAHCO 59S/50PH2 is a Phillips PH2 screwdriver bit with a 50 mm working length designed for manual screwdrivers and compatible bit holders. The compact 50 mm length and standard PH2 tip make it suitable for fastening cross-head screws in carpentry, furniture assembly and light electrical work where access is limited or controlled torque is required. The bit is engineered to fit 1/4" hex drive holders and provides consistent engagement with Phillips screws for reliable performance in everyday repair and assembly tasks.

Advantages

The bit is manufactured from high-performance alloy steel and finished with a protective zinc phosphate coating to resist corrosion and ensure longer service life. Its 1/4" hex shank conforms to common drive standards, offering broad compatibility with hand-held screwdrivers, bit sockets and quick-change holders. The PH2 profile delivers accurate seating in Phillips heads to reduce cam-out and improve torque transmission compared with worn or improvised tips.

Suitable for

• Carpentry and woodwork fastening
• Furniture assembly and mounting
• Light electrical installation and repair
• General maintenance and DIY tasks in confined spaces

Key specifications

• Tip type: Phillips PH2
• Length: 50 mm (working length)
• Drive: 1/4" hex shank compatible with standard bit holders
• Material: high-performance alloy steel
• Surface finish: zinc phosphate
• Weight: approximately 67 g (packaged item weight may vary)

How to use

Insert the 1/4" hex shank of the BAHCO 59S/50PH2 into a compatible manual screwdriver, bit holder or quick-change chuck until it seats securely. Align the PH2 tip with the cross-head screw and apply steady axial pressure while turning the driver to prevent slipping. Use appropriate torque and avoid over-tightening to protect screw heads and the bit tip. After use, store bits in their box or a dedicated holder to protect the tip geometry and maintain readiness.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match the PH2 tip precisely to the screw head size, use controlled torque when working with soft materials, and replace bits that show rounding or wear. The zinc phosphate finish provides corrosion resistance but storing bits dry and clean will extend operational life.
