Screwdriver bit Makita E-12429, 50 mm length, pack of 10

Makita E-12429 screwdriver bit set contains ten 50 mm bits designed for use with compatible hand or power screwdrivers. Each bit features a 1/4 inch hex shank and a Torx tip, providing a standard length useful for assembly, repair and installation tasks. The pack is sized for convenient storage and transport to job sites.

Advantages

Bits in this set combine a standardized 50 mm length with a 1/4 inch hex shank for compatibility with most bit holders and chucks. The Torx tip profile improves torque transfer and reduces cam-out compared with slotted or Phillips profiles. The set's packaging keeps bits organized and accessible, and the magnetized tips aid in retaining screws during pilot insertion and fastening.

Suitable for

• General assembly of furniture and fixtures requiring Torx fasteners
• Maintenance and repair work on appliances and equipment that use Torx screws
• Installation tasks where a 50 mm bit length provides access in shallow recesses
• Use with hand-held screwdrivers, bit holders, and impact drivers compatible with 1/4" hex shanks

How to use

Insert a 1/4 inch hex shank bit into a compatible bit holder, chuck or screwdriver until it seats securely. Use the Torx tip to engage the corresponding screw head and apply steady pressure while turning to avoid stripping. For power or impact drivers, select an appropriate speed and torque setting for the screw and material being fastened. Store bits in the original pack to keep them organized and protected when not in use.

Usage recommendations

For longest service life, avoid excessive lateral force and use the correct Torx size for the screw head. When using an impact driver, choose torque settings that match the screw and material to prevent overdriving. Replace any worn or damaged bits to maintain reliable engagement and reduce the risk of screw damage.
