Screwdriver FELO SD No. 9 VDE Slotted 5.5 x 1.0 x 125 mm

Insulated FELO SD No. 9 VDE slotted screwdriver with a 5.5 mm blade width, 1.0 mm blade thickness and 125 mm shaft length. Designed for electrical work, the tool features VDE-certified insulation that reduces the risk of accidental contact with live circuits and enables safe tightening or loosening of slotted screws in switches, outlets and electrical equipment. The screwdriver combines an ergonomically shaped handle with a precisely machined slotted tip to ensure accurate contact and controlled torque transfer during assembly and maintenance tasks.

Advantages

The VDE insulation provides reliable protection up to the rated voltage for which the tool is certified, offering a safe working envelope when performing electrical installations or repairs. The 5.5 mm blade width and 1.0 mm thickness give stable engagement with standard slotted heads, minimising cam-out and damage to screw slots. A 125 mm shaft length balances reach and control for common indoor electrical tasks, while the ergonomically designed handle improves grip and reduces hand fatigue during repeated operations.

Suitable for

• Tightening and loosening slotted screws in switches and sockets
• Electrical installation and maintenance work on household and commercial equipment
• Service tasks on control panels and junction boxes where VDE insulation is required
• General electrical fit-out, repair and troubleshooting involving slotted fasteners

How to use

Select the FELO SD No. 9 VDE slotted screwdriver when working with slotted screws of matching size. Before starting work, verify that the insulation certification and rated voltage are appropriate for the task. Hold the ergonomic handle and align the flat tip with the screw slot, applying steady pressure while turning to tighten or loosen the fastener. Use controlled force to avoid stripping the screw head; for deeper or recessed screws, use the 125 mm shaft to reach confined spaces while maintaining control.

Usage recommendations

For safe operation, always inspect the insulated shaft and handle for cracks, cuts or damage prior to use and do not use the tool if the insulation is compromised. Use the screwdriver only on slotted screws that match the blade dimensions to minimise wear. Store the tool in a dry place and keep it clean from oil or grease to preserve grip and insulation performance.
