Makita screwdriver bit set E-12980 — 1/4" hex shank, 10 pieces

Makita E-12980 is a compact set of 10 screwdriver bits with a 1/4" hex shank designed for use with compatible drills, drivers and bit holders. The set covers a range of commonly used tip types and lengths for general fastening tasks in construction, repair and home DIY. Bits are sized for quick insertion into a 1/4" hex receptacle and provide stable engagement for routine screwing and loosening jobs.

Advantages

The 1/4" hex shank ensures fast, tool-free bit changes in chucks and magnetic holders. A set of ten bits reduces the need to stop work to search for different tip types, and the compact format is easy to store in a toolbox or on a job site. Bits are manufactured to standard tip geometries for reliable fit with fasteners and consistent torque transfer during use.

Suitable for

• Screwdriving and fastening with drills and impact drivers
• General construction and carpentry assembly
• Maintenance, repair and light renovation tasks
• Home DIY projects and furniture assembly

Key specifications

• Quantity: 10 pieces
• Shank type: 1/4" hex
• Tip styles: common screwdriver tip types (various sizes)
• Compatibility: drills, impact drivers and bit holders with 1/4" hex receptacle
• Finish and material: hardened steel suitable for general fastening

How to use

Select the appropriate bit for the screw head and insert the 1/4" hex shank into the tool's chuck or magnetic bit holder until it locks. Start at low speed to engage the screw, increase torque as needed, and maintain steady pressure to avoid cam-out. For impact driver use, choose bits rated for impact duty when working with high-torque applications and check bit condition regularly; replace worn or damaged bits to maintain secure engagement.

Usage recommendations

Store bits in a dry place and keep them organized to prevent tip damage. Use the correct bit type and size for each fastener to extend bit life and ensure secure fastening. For heavy-duty or repetitive impact work, consider using purpose-made impact-rated bits.
