Screwdriver flat enlarged for electricians STANLEY FatMax 2.5x50mm

Flat (slotted) electrician’s screwdriver STANLEY FatMax 2.5x50mm is a hand tool designed for precise flat-head fastening and loosening in electrical installations. The blade measures 2.5 mm in width and 50 mm in length, providing accurate engagement with slotted fasteners. The tool combines an insulated shaft profile for safer handling in typical electrical environments and a larger, ergonomic handle shape that improves grip and torque control during repetitive work in workshop or on-site conditions.

Advantages

The FatMax handle profile offers a higher-diameter, non-slip grip that reduces hand fatigue and enables better torque transfer when turning screws. The blade dimensions (2.5 x 50 mm) deliver stable contact with slotted screws, reducing cam-out and damage to screw heads. Insulated handling properties and clearly defined blade-to-handle junction help separate the conductive shaft from the grip, supporting safer use near live circuits when used with appropriate precautions and in accordance with safety guidelines.

Suitable for

• Electrical fastening and loosening of slotted screws in switches, outlets and terminal blocks
• Maintenance and installation tasks in residential and commercial electrical systems
• Workshop repair tasks requiring precise flat-head screw engagement

Key specifications

• Blade type: flat / slotted
• Blade width: 2.5 mm
• Blade length: 50 mm
• Handle: enlarged FatMax profile for improved grip and torque
• Intended use: electrical work and general fastening

How to use

Select the screwdriver when the blade width matches the slot width of the screw to ensure full contact. Insert the blade tip into the slot and apply steady axial pressure while turning the handle to drive or remove the screw. Maintain appropriate hand positioning on the enlarged handle to control torque and reduce slipping. Follow standard electrical safety procedures: de-energize circuits before working where possible, use insulated tools rated for the task, and wear personal protective equipment as required.

Usage recommendations

Store the screwdriver in a dry tool kit or on a magnetic/foam holder to protect the blade tip. Inspect the blade tip for wear or deformation before use; replace the tool if the tip is rounded or damaged to prevent screw head damage and slipping. For live-circuit work, verify insulation ratings and use certified insulated tools and appropriate protective equipment.
