Proxxon screwdriver bit socket 8.0 mm (1/4") — 33 mm length

Proxxon screwdriver bit socket 8.0 mm (1/4") — 33 mm length is a compact bit adapter designed to couple standard 1/4" screwdriver bits with ratchets, handle drivers or power tools. With an 8.0 mm tip diameter and a total length of 33 mm, this socket provides a short, rigid connection that preserves torque transfer while minimizing leverage and access issues in confined or precision work.

Advantages

The bit socket offers a precise fit for 1/4" bits and a stable connection to common ratchet and driver interfaces. Its short 33 mm length reduces wobble and improves control when working on small fasteners or in tight spaces. The design is robust for frequent use and supports accurate torque transmission without excessive flex. The straightforward shape and standard drive size make it compatible with a wide range of workshop tools.

Suitable for

• Precision mechanical assembly and disassembly
• Electronics repair and maintenance where short reach is needed
• General workshop tasks with confined access
• Situations requiring accurate torque transfer from ratchets or drivers

Key specifications

• Tip diameter: 8.0 mm
• Drive size: 1/4" (6.35 mm) compatible
• Overall length: 33 mm
• Adapter type: screwdriver bit socket for standard 1/4" bits
• Intended use: manual ratchet and driver coupling for bits

How to use

Select a compatible 1/4" screwdriver bit, press it into the socket until it seats securely, then attach the socket to a ratchet, handle driver or suitable power tool with a matching interface. Apply torque carefully and maintain alignment between the fastener, bit and socket to ensure efficient transfer of force. For removal, reverse the turning direction and withdraw the bit from the socket when work is complete.

Usage recommendations

Use the Proxxon screwdriver bit socket with bits in good condition and appropriate for the fastener head to avoid rounding or slippage. Avoid applying impact forces unless the connected tool and bit are rated for such use. Store the socket in a dry, clean tool compartment to prevent corrosion and ensure consistent fit and performance.
