Screwdriver Wera Insulated 1000V 05008101001, slotted/Phillips tip (insulated handle and shaft)

The Wera insulated screwdriver 05008101001 is designed for safe work on live electrical equipment up to 1000 V. It combines an insulated handle and shaft with a tip shaped for both slotted and Phillips heads, offering a single-tool solution for many common fastening tasks. The handle profile provides ergonomic support for controlled torque transfer while the insulated design reduces the risk of electrical shock when used according to standards and instructions.

Advantages

The insulated handle and shaft are rated for use on energized circuits up to 1000 V, providing an integrated barrier between the operator and conductive parts. The dual slotted/Phillips tip reduces the need to switch tools for mixed fastener types. The ergonomic grip promotes controlled force application and reduces hand fatigue during repeated use. The tool is manufactured to consistent dimensional tolerances for reliable fit in standard screw heads.

Suitable for

• Electrical installation and maintenance on devices and terminal blocks where working voltages do not exceed 1000 V
• Routine servicing of control panels, switches and sockets with mixed slotted and Phillips fasteners
• Field service tasks and on-site repairs requiring insulated hand tools

Key specifications

• Insulation rated for use up to 1000 volts
• Insulated shaft and handle construction
• Dual slotted and Phillips tip compatible with common screw heads
• Ergonomic handle for controlled torque transfer
• Designed for manual fastening and removal tasks

How to use

Verify that the screwdriver insulation is intact before each use, checking for visible damage, cracks or worn areas. Confirm that the working voltage does not exceed 1000 V and that local safety rules and lockout procedures are observed. Select the screwdriver tip to match the screw head and apply steady, controlled torque while maintaining proper hand position on the insulated handle. Avoid using the tool on live conductors beyond its rated voltage or as a pry bar, chisel or hammer.

Usage recommendations

Store the insulated screwdriver in a dry, clean place and inspect periodically for any mechanical or insulation damage. Clean with a damp cloth and do not use aggressive solvents that could degrade the insulation. Replace the tool immediately if the insulation shows signs of cracking, nicking or other compromise. Use the screwdriver only for manual fastening tasks within its voltage rating and follow relevant electrical safety standards and workplace procedures.
